- Ensure AI solutions are scalable,



maintainable, cost-conscious, and aligned with enterprise technology standards.
- Drive continuous experimentation with emerging AI technologies and assess how they can improve business processes and solution capability.
- Define non-functional requirements for AI solutions, including performance, latency, throughput, monitoring, logging, availability, and cost controls.
- Support governance review by ensuring AI solutions follow approved intake, risk assessment, architecture, compliance, and operational readiness processes.
- Identify architecture risks, dependencies, and technical constraints early and recommend practical mitigation approaches.

Required Skills & Experience :

- 10-12 years of overall experience, with 5 years in AI/ML solution architecture or applied AI engineering.
- Proven experience in designing and deploying AI and GenAI architectures across enterprise environments.
- Hands-on experience with cloud-based AI services such as Azure OpenAI, AWS Bedrock, or LIAMA.
- Proficiency in data engineering, including ETL/ELT pipelines, streaming data, data lakes, and vector databases.
- Implement security controls - encryption, zero-trust access, and data anonymization.
- Working knowledge of AI practices - CI/CD for AI models, model lifecycle management, and monitoring.
- Understanding of security, privacy, and compliance frameworks (e.g., GDPR, HIPAA) for responsible AI adoption.
- Establish partner ecosystem to bring innovation & ideas suitable for healthcare domain.
- Contribute to enterprise AI strategy, roadmap planning, and technology evaluations.
- Strong analytical, communication, and stakeholder management skills.
- Ability to collaborate across business, data, and IT teams to translate strategic objectives into scalable AI solutions.

Preferred Qualifications :

- Bachelor's degree in computer science, Information Technology, Engineering, Business Systems, or a related field.
