It's fun to work in a company where people truly BELIEVE in what they are doing
*We're committed to bringing passion and customer focus to the business.*
Lead Architect – Full-Stack, Cloud, Data & AI Engineering
*Technical leadership of the end-to-end build, with accountability for establishing the team's deployment capability and mentoring Forward Deployed Engineers to independence*
Role Overview
The Lead Architect sets and owns the technical direction for enterprise agentic AI solutions across application, cloud, data and AI layers — and delivers it through the team rather than personally. The primary mandate is to raise engineering capability: establish standards and reusable deployment assets, guide design and review work, and mentor Forward Deployed Engineers until they can build, deploy and operate solutions in client environments without escalation. Hands-on work is expected selectively — to stay technically credible and unblock the team — not as sustained feature delivery.
