Summary

Guidewire is seeking an AI Architect to join our Qualified Services AI Engineering team in Bangalore. You will work horizontally across AI Engineering initiatives, helping blueprint AI features and define the patterns that allow Strike Teams to deliver production-ready AI capabilities. Your primary craft is AI solution architecture — shaping the prompt engineering, harness engineering, RAG, evaluation, observability, and model-selection approach that turns an AI idea into a reliable feature.

You will help teams make data-informed decisions about when to use agentic workflows, direct LLM calls, RAG, classical NLP/NLU, lightweight ML, or model fine-tuning. You will mentor P2/P3 AI engineers, review designs, create reusable patterns, and help the broader team explain AI design choices clearly across Guidewire, SI partners, and customers.
Job Description

Key Responsibilities
- AI Feature Blueprinting: Create technical blueprints for AI features, including architecture, data needs, model strategy, evaluation approach, and delivery risks.
- Model Selection:



Define patterns for identifying which LLM model should be used for each call, and when to use NLP/NLU instead.
- Harness Architecture: Shape reusable patterns for agent loops, tool/function calling, context construction, memory, structured outputs, retries, and failure handling.
- Prompt Engineering: Set standards for prompt design, versioning, review, experimentation, and regression testing as first-class engineering assets.
- Evaluation: Design eval frameworks, golden datasets, regression suites, error analysis, and LLM-as-judge patterns to measure quality and guide decisions.
- RAG & Knowledge Patterns: Guide document parsing, chunking, embeddings, retrieval, reranking, prompt assembly, and grounded response patterns.
- Mentorship & Enablement: Coach P2/P3 AI engineers, review technical designs, create examples, and help junior engineers present architecture findings clearly.
- Cross-Guidewire Collabor
