We're looking for a seasoned Software Architect with deep expertise in cloud-native enterprise systems and Generative AI. You will define and deliver scalable, secure, and production-grade GenAI architectures including multi-agent, RAG, LLMOps and AgentOps systems and lead cross-functional teams to build and operate them. This role combines hands-on technical leadership, systems thinking, and strong stakeholder management.

Role & responsibilities

Architecture & System Design

- Design scalable, modular, and cloud-native architectures for GenAI applications (microservices, event-driven, serverless)
- Define system boundaries, data flows, orchestration, and integration patterns for LLMs, vector DBs, embedding services, and tool integrations
- Produce architecture artifacts (Layered Architecture Diagrams, C4 Models, DFDs, Class, Sequence, ER & Use Case diagrams, different types of blueprints, API contracts, design and trade-off decisions)

GenAI & Agentic Systems

- Architect and deliver Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) pipelines, Natural Language to SQL Flows, fine-tuning strategies, multi-modal capabilities, and tool augmented agents
- Design agent orchestration and multi-agent frameworks enabling planning, reasoning, and secure tool invocations, implement and design Agent prototypes and Communication Protocols
- Define prompt engineering standards, memory models (episodic/semantic/procedural), and context management.

LLMOps & AgentOps

- Define and implement model lifecycle pipelines: training, fine-tuning, validation, deployment, rollback, and monitoring
- Build AgentOps processes for agent lifecycle, behavior tracking, governance and performance optimization
- Automate CI/CD for models, agents and services (MLflow, TFX, BentoML, custom pipelines). Integration, Security & Compliance
- Integrate GenAI services with enterprise systems (ERP, CRM, data lakes, APIs) using secure, scalable interfaces
- Ensure secure access controls, data privacy, encryption, and compliance (GDPR, HIPAA, SOC2)
- Define responsible AI practices: bias mitigation, explainability, audit trails, and output governance
- GenAI security classify, encrypt & sign data/models; enforce least-privilege with short-lived creds and CI/CD security gates; telemetry, drift/hallucination alerts, kill switch & runbooks

• Agentic AI security - provable agent identity/attestation, tool allowlist + human gate for high-risk actions; ephemeral scoped tokens, sandboxed execution, and replayable audit traces

Observability, Ops & Cost Optimization

- Define telemetry, tracing, and logging for models and agents; monitor performance, drift,



hallucination rates and user feedback loops
- Build dashboards, alerts and runbook guidance for operational health
- Design systems for cost efficiency (autoscaling, spot instances, serverless choices) and support FinOps practices. Leadership, Collaboration & Documentation
- Lead cross-functional teams (product, data science, AI engineers, platform) through architecture reviews, workshops, and technical decisioning
- Maintain architectural standards, documentation, playbooks, and pattern libraries for GenAI systems. • Mentor engineers and evangelize best practices across the organization

Required qualifications & experience

- 14+ years software engineering experience with 7+ years in architecture or senior technical leadership roles (or equivalent)
- Proven track record designing and delivering cloud-native, production systems at enterprise scale
- Hands-on experience with GenAI/LLM systems, RAG, NL-SQL, agentic frameworks or similar productionized AI applications
- Robust knowledge of system design patterns (microservices, event-driven, CQRS, hexagonal architecture), and Low-Level Design Patterns
- Experience integrating ML/LLM services with enterprise data platforms and APIs while meeting security/compliance requirements
- Solid engineering background in at least two languages (Python, TypeScript, Go, Java, C#) and familiarity with modern frameworks.
