Role Overview

We are seeking an experienced AI Architect to lead the design, development, and implementation of enterprise-scale AI, Generative AI, Machine Learning, RAG, and Agentic AI solutions. The ideal candidate will translate business requirements into scalable, secure, governed, and production-ready AI architectures while providing technical leadership across engineering, data science, and business teams.

Key Responsibilities

•

Own end-to-end AI solution architecture, from use-case discovery and feasibility assessment to experimentation, production deployment, and operational monitoring.

•

Translate business objectives into AI architecture designs, defining use cases, architecture patterns, decision boundaries, acceptance criteria, and measurable business outcomes.

•

Architect enterprise AI solutions integrating foundation models, RAG pipelines, agent orchestration, vector databases, enterprise data sources, APIs, cloud infrastructure, and human-in-the-loop workflows.

•

Design scalable, secure, cloud-native AI platforms with appropriate identity and access management, integration patterns, and infrastructure controls.

•

Establish AI evaluation and governance frameworks covering model quality, accuracy, groundedness, hallucinations, security, privacy, bias, fairness, compliance, performance, and cost optimization.

•

Define MLOps/LLMOps practices, including deployment pipelines, model and prompt versioning, observability, monitoring, drift detection, rollback strategies, and production readiness.

•

Implement responsible AI, AI safety, model risk management, privacy engineering, and security controls aligned with enterprise policies and regulatory requirements.

•

Provide architecture leadership through technical reviews, design assurance, solution validation, and guidance to engineering and data science teams.





•

Communicate architectural decisions, technical trade-offs, risks, and business value to senior business and technology stakeholders.
