AI Architect Engineer

Full-time [ Location : Hyderabad/Remote] Reports to - Head Solutions

Syren Cloud is building a governed, no-code/low-code enterprise AI platform, and a flagship product powered by it. Were looking for an AI Engineer to own and architect the intelligence layer: the prompts and guardrails that shape agent behavior, and the canonical data model and knowledge graph those agents - and our separate Data Science teams models - reason over.

This role sits closer to architecture than a typical AI engineering position - youre not just implementing against a schema someone hands you, youre deciding what that schema should be.

What youll do

Architecture & knowledge modeling:

- Own architectural decisions for how intelligence - prompts, retrieval, and agent logic - plugs into our platforms core: where inference happens, how data flows through our workflow orchestration layer, and when a capability belongs in the ontology layer versus a prompt versus the Data Science teams remit.
- Define and evolve the canonical data model - the shared representation of core business entities that every agent, workflow, and downstream model has to agree on, sitting on top of our platforms versioning and governance framework.
- Design automated ontology creation - turning raw source schemas from enterprise systems into structured entities, relationships, and synonyms programmatically, so a current data source onboards without hand-curated mapping every time.
- Build and maintain the knowledge graph connecting the core entities in our domain - the structure our products retrieval and agent logic reasons over, and the foundation the Data Science team builds its models on top of.

Agent intelligence:

- Design and iterate on agent personas, system prompts, and guardrail logic - role/policy/content-safety checks, autonomy thresholds, and escalation rules.
- Own the evaluation harness: golden tests and prompt-regression checks that catch quality drift before an agent version ships.
- Validate agent behavior across test and production model configurations,



working with our internal model registry.
- Tune retrieval quality for knowledge-grounded agents - chunking strategy, relevance testing, and search infrastructure tuning.

How youll work:

- Build against written specs (spec plan tasks) rather than open-ended tickets, and write the specs yourself for the architecture and agent-intelligence surface you own.
- Use AI coding assistants as your primary implementation tool for scaffolding and iteration - your judgment goes into what to build and whether the output is actually correct, not into typing every line by hand.
- Review your own AI-assisted output as rigorously as youd review a teammates PR; verification is part of the job, not a step you skip because the code compiled.
- Partner closely with the Data Science team as a consumer of your canonical data model and knowledge graph - you own the structure, they own what gets modeled on top of it.

What were looking for:

- Experience making architectural calls on a data or AI platform - not just implementing someone elses design.
- Hands-on experience with ontology design, knowledge graphs, or semantic/canonical data modeling - youve built one of these, not just read about them.
- Hands-on experience with LLM-based systems: prompt design, retrieval-augmented generation, and evaluating generative output quality.
- Strong Python fundamentals and comfort working against a modern backend service and its data model.
- Familiarity with agentic or workflow-orchestration patterns - multi-step graphs, tool-calling, trigger retrieve act respond pipelines.
- Comfortable pair-programming with AI coding assistants as a primary tool, balanced with strong code-review instincts.
- Clear technical writing - specs are this roles primary interface with the rest of the team.

Nice to have:

- CPG / Retail / Supply chain domain knowledge
