Job Description
Forward Deployed AI Architect designing complex AI systems in partnership with enterprises. Leading technical discovery and client engagement to achieve significant AI outcomes.
Responsibilities:
- Drive technical discovery with clients: understand environments, constraints, and the realities of dynamic enterprises.
- Design AI/ML architectures that balance speed, reliability, and cost - but never at the expense of outcomes.
- Provide architectural guardrails while enabling engineers to move fast and adapt in the field.
- Act as the forward-deployed face of technical leadership, tailoring communication from engineers to C-levels.
- Teach and enable client teams by turning complexity into clarity.
- Influence decision-making by linking technical choices to business wins.
- Guide engineers through execution without smothering them in process.
- Translate client-specific solutions into reusable patterns that strengthen our platform.
- Share insights across the company, raising the bar for future deployments.
Requirements:
- 8+ years designing and delivering complex software systems, with strong AI/ML depth.
- Proven experience as a technical lead or architect in high-stakes, enterprise environments.
- Mastery of the AI development lifecycle: from messy data ingestion to model deployment and monitoring.
- Ability to engage credibly across audiences - engineers in the trenches, executives in the boardroom.
- Background in consulting or client-facing engineering roles where outcomes mattered more than process.
- Systems thinker with a missionary mindset: you’re here to win, not to optimize for your next job.
Benefits:
- Impact: Lead the design of AI systems that move the needle for global enterprises.
- Exposure: Work across industries on problems that rarely have playbooks.
- Enablement: Build not just solutions, but client capabilities that outlast your engagement.
- Culture: Join a team that prizes creativity, resilience, and the primacy of winning over process.
- Growth: Stretch yourself - real growth is painful, nonlinear, and career-defining.
