The role
You will be the technical face of Antino's AI practice in front of clients, and also the person who builds what was promised. You will join pre-sales calls with enterprise clients, understand their business problem, and propose a credible AI or agentic solution during the conversation, with trade-offs, risks and a rough effort estimate. After the deal, you stay hands-on. You will build the proof of concept, set the architecture, and guide engineering and data science teams until the solution runs in production. You will also train Antino's internal teams so that the whole practice gets stronger over time.
A hands-on architect role This is not a slides-only role. We expect you to write code, run demos and review production systems yourself.
Who you are The ideal candidate is an architect and a builder at the same time. PROFILE WHAT WE LOOK FOR Tier-1 background You studied at a Tier-1 institute (IIT, NIT, BITS, IIIT or equivalent), or you built AI solutions at Tier-1 organisations such as top product companies, AI-first startups, or the AI practices of leading consulting firms. Client-ready You are comfortable in front of CXOs, product heads and technical teams. You can listen to a business problem and sketch a sound architecture on the spot. Data science + GenAI You know classical ML and statistics well enough to tell when an LLM is the wrong tool, and agentic AI well enough to build multi-agent systems that hold up in production. Hands-on You have personally built and shipped agentic AI solutions, not only designed them. A multiplier You enjoy teaching, and you raise the bar of the engineers and data scientists around you.

AI SOLUTION ARCHITECT
03 What you'll do PRE-SALES Pre-sales and client solutioning Lead technical discovery calls and workshops with enterprise clients alongside sales and business development. Turn business problems into AI solution designs during the conversation, covering architecture, trade-offs, risks and rough effort. Answer deep technical questions from client architects, security teams and data teams with confidence. Own the technical side of RFP and RFI responses, proposals, SOWs, estimates and ROI cases. Build demos and proofs of concept quickly, often within days, to win and de-risk deals.
ARCHITECTURE Solution architecture Design end-to-end AI/ML, Generative AI and agentic AI architectures for enterprise use cases. Architect solutions using LLMs, RAG, AI agents, vector databases, embeddings, and prompt and context engineering. Choose the right approach for each problem: classical ML, an LLM, a fine-tuned model, an agent, or a mix. Evaluate and select LLMs, frameworks, databases and cloud services on quality, latency, cost and data residency. Design and implement on AWS, Azure or GCP: data pipelines, model serving, APIs and client-system integration.
DELIVERY Building and delivery Build agentic systems hands-on: tool-using agents, multi-agent workflows, memory, human-in-the-loop steps and integrations. Guide engineering and data science teams from proof of concept to production. Set best practices for scalability, performance, security, observability, evaluation and cost optimisation. Put guardrails, evaluation suites and monitoring in place so AI systems stay reliable after go-live. Write clear architecture documents and review designs and code.
ENABLEMENT Team enablement Train Antino's internal engineering and data science teams on GenAI, agentic AI and AI engineering practices. Build reusable reference architectures, accelerators and playbooks that speed up future projects. Contribute to Antino's own AI products, including Company Brain. Track new models, frameworks and research, and bring what matters into Antino's practice. 04 Must-have skills and experience
AREA REQUIREMENT
Experience 5+ years in software engineering, data science, ML engineering or solution architecture, with at least 2 years designing and shipping GenAI or LLM solutions to production. Agentic AI A proven track record of building agentic AI solutions that real users rely on, beyond proofs of concept: tool-calling agents, multi-agent workflows, agentic RAG. ANTINO ·

AI SOLUTION ARCHITECT 3 AREA REQUIREMENT
Data science Strong foundations in statistics, classical ML (regression, gradient boosting, time series), deep learning, feature engineering and model evaluation. Pre-sales Client-facing experience with discovery calls, solution proposals, effort estimates and technical presentations to senior stakeholders. Engineering Solid hands-on Python and API development (e.g. FastAPI).
You can build a working proof of concept yourself. LLM platforms OpenAI, Azure OpenAI, Anthropic Claude, Google Gemini and AWS Bedrock, plus open-weight models such as Llama, Qwen, Mistral or DeepSeek. Frameworks LangGraph, LangChain, LlamaIndex, CrewAI, OpenAI Agents SDK, Claude Agent SDK or Google ADK. Retrieval Vector databases and search: Pinecone, Weaviate, Milvus, Qdrant, pgvector, FAISS, Chroma or Elasticsearch/OpenSearch. Cloud Architecture on AWS, Azure or GCP, including SageMaker, Bedrock, Azure AI Foundry and Vertex AI. MLOps ·
LLMOps Model deployment, CI/CD, Docker, Kubernetes, monitoring and cost tracking. Systems Microservices, distributed systems, databases and secure, scalable architectures. Communication You can explain trade-offs to a CXO and to an engineer,
and write architecture documents and proposals that people act on. 05 Advanced AI depth we expect You should be able to discuss each of these areas with a client and apply them in a build. AREA WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW WELL Agent design Tool and function calling, planning and reflection patterns (ReAct, plan-and-execute), short- and long term memory, state management, human-in-the-loop approvals, failure recovery. Multi-agent systems Orchestration patterns (supervisor, hierarchical, peer-to-peer), task routing, agent hand-offs, keeping cost and latency under control as agents multiply.
Agent protocols Model Context Protocol (MCP) for connecting agents to tools and data, Agent2Agent (A2A) for interoperability, secure integration with enterprise systems. Advanced RAG Chunking strategies, hybrid search, re-ranking, query rewriting, GraphRAG and knowledge graphs, agentic and multimodal RAG, permission-aware retrieval, context engineering. Model adaptation Reasoning, long-context and multimodal models, small language models, fine-tuning (LoRA, QLoRA), distillation, and when to choose prompting, RAG or fine-tuning. Inference ·
