AI Solutions Architect

This is a remote position.

Position: AI Solutions Architect

Experience /Level:  Senior Individual Contributor | Architecture Ownership, 5+ years 

Role Overview: 

We are looking for a hands-on AI Solutions Architect to design, build, deploy, and operate internal AI solutions on our cloud platform.

The role combines technical delivery (~50%) and business engagement (~50%). You will work directly with business leaders and operational teams to identify high-value AI opportunities, build production-ready solutions, and establish scalable architecture, governance, and cost controls.

This is a delivery-focused role, not a research role. Success means AI systems that are deployed, adopted, and delivering measurable business value.

Key Responsibilities: 

• Design and build AI agents, RAG solutions, automation workflows, and structured-data assistants.
  
• Own the AI architecture, from discovery through production and ongoing operations.
  
• Build retrieval systems including document ingestion, chunking, indexing, search, and retrieval evaluation.
  
• Integrate AI with ERP, document management, quality systems, Microsoft 365, and other enterprise platforms.
  
• Own AI cost management — estimate, monitor, optimise, and report usage and spend.
  
• Partner with IT on security, identity, access, networking, secrets, and data residency.
  
• Support Microsoft 365 Copilot and Copilot Studio deployment, governance, and adoption.
  
• Run business discovery sessions and translate business problems into realistic, production-ready AI use cases.
  
• Present solutions to executives, subject matter experts, and operational users.
  
• Establish reusable architecture patterns, standards, and governance.
  
• Mentor and enable other technical staff as the AI capability grows.
  

Strong working depth expected in:

• Azure AI Foundry or equivalent cloud AI platform
  
• AI agents, tool/function calling and evaluation
  
• LLMs: OpenAI, Anthropic, Google
  
• Prompt engineering and AI failure handling
  
• RAG, vector/hybrid search, embedding and retrieval evaluation
  
• Azure AI Search or equivalent
  

• Microsoft 365 Copilot & Copilot Studio
  
• Power Automate, Power Apps, SharePoint & Microsoft Graph
  
• Python & SQL
  
• REST APIs, serverless functions, webhooks and workflow orchestration
  
• OCR/document extraction, e.g. Azure Document Intelligence
  
• Databricks, Microsoft Fabric, Snowflake or similar
  
• Cloud security fundamentals: RBAC, managed identity, secrets and network isolation
  
• AI-assisted development tools such as Claude Code, GitHub Copilot or Cursor
  

• Strong stakeholder management from C-suite to frontline operations.
  
• Able to turn vague AI interest into well-scoped business problems.
  
• Comfortable challenging unrealistic requirements and saying no where appropriate.
  
• Strong presentation, demonstration and communication skills.
  
• Able to build build-vs-buy cases using real business and cost data.
  
• Comfortable managing SME validation and accuracy reviews.
  
• Able to manage projects independently from discovery to production.
  
• Strong architecture and executive-level documentation skills.
  

• 5+ years in a technical business role such as solutions architecture, systems integration, business analysis or process automation.
  
• At least one AI/automation solution deployed to production and still in use.
  
• Strong experience in at least one major cloud platform.
  
• Demonstrated experience with prompt engineering and AI agents.
  
• Able to read, direct and debug code.
  
• Proven experience working directly with business stakeholders. 
  

Preferred Experience / Skills: 

• Experience building a new AI/technology capability from the ground up.
