About The Position

The AI Solution Architect will guide partner-led initiatives supporting the client’s investment in a unified, Microsoft Azure-based data and AI platform.

As the internal AI subject matter expert, the architect will ensure solutions ranging from chatbots to complex agentic AI workflows are designed and built to the organization’s standards and delivered successfully. The architect will provide expert review and guidance on partner-delivered AI projects, validate proposed architectures for soundness, scalability, and strategic alignment, and represent internal requirements in project meetings with partners and stakeholders. The role also monitors the development lifecycle and quality of final AI products, including functional and non-functional requirements and the handling of structured and unstructured data. Success requires experience in large corporate environments, a process-oriented and consultative approach, and the ability to connect technical implementation with business objectives.
