Position Overview:
We are seeking a highly experienced Senior AI Software Architect to lead the design, development, and implementation of next-generation AI platforms and intelligent systems. This individual will be responsible for architecting scalable software solutions, developing AI-enabled applications, and integrating enterprise data platforms to support advanced AI and machine learning initiatives. Candidates must possess deep hands-on development expertise in addition to architecture leadership experience.
Key Responsibilities
  • Design and build enterprise-scale software platforms from the ground up.
  • Architect and develop AI and machine learning solutions, including AI agent-based applications.
  • Lead software architecture efforts from low-level system design through full application stack implementation.
  • Integrate AI platforms with enterprise technologies and data ecosystems such as Databricks and Snowflake.
  • Develop scalable software frameworks, services, and APIs to support AI workloads.
  • Provide technical leadership and architectural guidance across engineering teams.
  • Evaluate emerging AI technologies and determine appropriate integration strategies.
  • Collaborate with business and technical stakeholders to operationalize AI solutions in production environments.
  • Serve as a hands-on contributor capable of coding, reviewing architecture, and solving complex technical challenges.
Required Qualifications
  • 8+ years of software architecture and software development experience at a senior engineer, technical lead, or architect level.
  • Hands-on experience building large-scale software platforms and architectures.
  • Experience designing systems from low-level architecture through application delivery.
  • Strong software engineering background with demonstrated coding expertise.
  • Practical experience developing AI, machine learning, or agentic AI solutions.
  • Experience integrating applications with modern data platforms, including Databricks and Snowflake.
  • Ability to rapidly learn and contribute in a fast-paced, high-pressure development environment.
  • Proven track record of delivering complex technical solutions rather than solely providing architectural guidance.
Preferred Qualifications
  • Experience building AI-native platforms and AI agents.
  • Expertise spanning software architecture, AI/ML engineering, and cloud-native development.
  • Experience integrating AI solutions into complex enterprise environments.
  • Strong understanding of modern AI development tooling and workflows.
  • Experience leading high-performing engineering teams and driving technical strategy.
  • Prior experience owning both architecture and implementation across multiple technology domains.
