The architect serves as a senior technical advisor to business and engineering teams, driving architecture decisions from discovery and PoC through production and operationalization.

Role Boundary

The Azure AI Architect owns architecture, standards, technology direction, security patterns, governance alignment, and target-state solution design. Engineering execution, team delivery management, and release readiness sit with the AI Engineer Lead.

Key Responsibilities

Design enterprise-grade RAG architectures, including document ingestion, chunking strategies, embeddings, vector/hybrid search, grounding, citations, and access controls.

Architect Agentic AI solutions, including multi-agent patterns, tool/function integration, enterprise APIs, knowledge sources, and workflow orchestration.

Lead LLM/model selection and evaluation based on accuracy, reasoning capability, latency, throughput, security, availability, and cost.

Architect integration between AI platforms and enterprise applications, databases, APIs, document repositories, data platforms, and event-driven systems.

Platform, Security & Governance

Establish architectural patterns for prompt management, evaluation, observability, model lifecycle management, LLMOps/MLOps, and AI application monitoring.

Define security architectures covering Microsoft Entra ID, managed identities, RBAC, Key Vault, private networking, encryption, API security, and sensitive-data protection.

Establish Responsible AI and AI governance controls covering safety, privacy, explainability, evaluation, hallucination management, and human oversight.

Collaboration & Leadership

Partner with application, cloud, data, cybersecurity, infrastructure, and enterprise architecture teams.

Lead architecture workshops, technical discovery sessions, design reviews, PoCs, and stakeholder presentations.

Provide technical direction and mentorship to AI engineers, ML engineers, application developers, data engineers, and cloud engineers

Experience & Qualifications

12+ years of overall technology experience.

5+ years in Solution, Cloud, Data, or Application Architecture.

Strong Azure architecture experience.

Demonstrated architecture experience with AI/ML and Generative AI.

Hands-on implementation experience with Azure OpenAI/Foundry and RAG solutions.

Experience defining enterprise AI roadmaps and leading AI programs from PoC to production at enterprise scale.

Experience providing architecture leadership across multiple engineering teams.

Strong experience working directly with customers and senior technology stakeholders.

Estimation and solution-planning experience.

Ability to lead and mentor geographically distributed engineering teams.

Key Attributes

Strong customer-facing and executive communication.

Ability to translate business problems into AI use cases and architecture.
