Responsibilities

Define and maintain Radwell’s Enterprise AI Reference Architecture (GenAI + Agentic AI + ML + analytics), aligned to an Azure-first strategy and Radwell’s application landscape.
Establish and enforce architecture standards for RAG / enterprise search (knowledge ingestion, chunking strategy, grounding, citations), Vector/embedding approach (data ownership, tenancy, lifecycle, retention), Agentic workflows (tool use, orchestration, approvals, human-in-the-loop), and Model governance (routing, versioning, evaluation, deprecation, rollbacks).
Own architecture decisions for AI across core platforms: ERP (e.g., Epicor P21 / other ERPs), Salesforce, Genesys, eCommerce, and internal apps.
Personally lead design and build reference implementations that teams can reuse (starter kits, SDKs, templates, CI/CD patterns).
Partner with product + engineering to deliver AI solutions for prioritized Radwell use cases such as: Pricing intelligence & optimization, Parts identification from unstructured content (emails, PDFs, tickets), Customer support automation (Genesys + knowledge + next-best-action), Demand forecasting & inventory optimization, Sales enablement / quote assistants integrated with CRM/ERP.
Provide technical leadership through architecture reviews, pairing, and escalation handling; ensure delivery quality from prototype → production.
Design and implement MLOps/LLMOps pipelines: prompt/model versioning, automated evaluation, model registry, deployment strategies, rollback mechanisms.
Define AI observability standards: response quality, latency, error rates, grounding accuracy, drift, cost and token consumption, safety events.
