Job Description

About the role

Version 1 has 98% AI adoption across the business, live agentic deployments, and a governance framework that routes each use case to self-service AI or CoE-led transformation. The AI Centre of Excellence (CoE) takes the complex, high-value use cases and turns them into production systems. Demand is growing and the CoE is taking on more production work. We are adding an AI CoE Architect, alongside an AI CoE Engineer, to give the team reliable, senior capability.

You will be the CoE's link between business need and technical design. You will work with business and delivery leaders to understand how their processes work and where AI can change them, then design solutions the engineering team can build. You will stay hands-on: you will build proofs of concept to test your designs, review the team's work, and help others grow. This is an architecture role for someone who still builds.

Key responsibilities

- Understand the business. Work with business and delivery leaders to map processes, challenges and goals,



and shape them into well-scoped AI use cases with clear value.
- Architect solutions. Design agentic and generative AI solutions end to end, covering model choice, data, integration, security, cost and operations.
- Prove the design. Build proofs of concept to test feasibility and show stakeholders what is possible, then hand solid candidates into delivery.
- Guide delivery. Work with CoE engineers through build and release, review designs and code, and resolve technical trade-offs.
- Set standards. Create reusable reference architectures, patterns and guidance, and feed lessons back into the CoE's governance model.
- Develop others. Coach CoE engineers and interns, and run training that raises AI skills across the business.
- Stay current. Track new models, tools and techniques, test them, and bring forward those that earn a place in our work.
