Job Description AI Center of Excellence Lead AI Engineer & Solution Architect Role

Summary:

We are looking for a hybrid AI Engineer and Solution Architect to lead our AI Center of Excellence (CoE). This is a working lead role, not a purely managerial one — it requires someone who can design and build production LLM/RAG and agentic systems personally, while also setting the technical direction, standards, and delivery discipline for the team building them. The ideal candidate has a robust core software engineering foundation (full-stack / .NET or equivalent enterprise stack) and has since specialized into applied AI.

Key Responsibilities
● Lead the AI Center of Excellence: define the team’s technical standards, reusable patterns, and reference architecture for GenAI/Agentic AI delivery across engagements.
● Architect and build end-to-end GenAI and Agentic AI solutions — RAG pipelines, LLM orchestration, multi-agent workflows — from design through production deployment.
● Own solution architecture across the full stack: backend services, APIs/microservices, data layer,



and cloud infrastructure, ensuring AI components integrate cleanly with existing enterprise systems.
● Select and justify the technical stack — LLM providers, vector databases, orchestration frameworks — based on the problem, not on default habit, and codify these choices as CoE guidelines.
● Produce architecture artifacts (HLD/LLD, sequence diagrams, integration specs) that the team builds against, and review their designs for architectural soundness.
● Build in evaluation, guardrails, and monitoring for AI systems — hallucination checks, retrieval quality metrics, human-in-the-loop escalation paths — as a standard the CoE enforces, not a one-off step.
● Support presales and solutioning — translating client requirements into a credible technical approach and effort estimate, and representing the CoE in client-facing technical discussions.
● Mentor and technically lead the team, growing its GenAI cap
