About the Role

As the Senior Architect, you will serve as the definitive technical authority for a large-scale AI data-product platform. You will own the architectural lifecycle from initial discovery and technical spikes to the comprehensive design baseline. This role involves defining the structural design for a multi-cloud environment, ensuring high availability, and managing complex system integrations.

You will act as the primary escalation point for architectural decisions, balancing strict scalability requirements with robust identity and entitlement management to support enterprise-grade AI training and inference. You will build a next-generation AI Data-Product Platform. This platform will transition the client from one-time file shipments to governed, ongoing access for data-products used in AI training, inference, and evaluation.
