· Translate business needs into clear AI designs, explaining technical choices, benefits, limitations, risks and trade-offs to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
· Define and promote reusable AI architecture patterns, shared components, standards and guardrails covering model selection, orchestration, grounding, integration, observability and human oversight.
· Identify common requirements across AI initiatives and shape reusable components, services and reference implementations that can be adopted by multiple teams.
· Maintain architectural oversight across multiple AI projects,

· Assess whether proposed AI use cases are suitable for AI, and recommend simpler approaches where these offer better value, control or maintainability.
· Architect AI solutions that integrate securely with enterprise data, applications, APIs and workflow platforms, working closely with Data, Integration, Cloud and Security Architecture.
· Support solution teams with approaches such as retrieval-augmented generation, semantic search, prompt and context management, model evaluation, MLOps and LLMOps.
· Ensure designs include appropriate testing, monitoring, cost management, performance, resilience, auditability and lifecycle controls.
· Contribute to AI governance and design assurance, including presenting proposals to architecture and risk review forums and tracking key decisions.
· Evaluate emerging AI technologies and vendors through structured assessments and proofs of concept, balancing innovation with operational and regulatory risk.
· Collaborate with engineers and delivery teams throughout implementation, helping resolve design issues while maintaining alignment to enterprise standards.
· Build trusted relationships across business and technology teams, facilitating workshops and helping stakeholders understand where AI can create measurable value.
