Description

Responsibilities

Enterprise AI & GenAI Architecture
 

• Define and own enterprise AI and GenAI reference architectures, including LLM platforms, RAG patterns, agentic systems, and multimodal solutions.
• Establish standardized architectural patterns for model serving, prompt management, orchestration, tool use, and agent frameworks.
• Lead architecture decisions for buy vs. build, model selection, hosting strategies, and vendor integrations.
• Ensure AI architectures align with enterprise standards, cloud strategy, security, and governance.

AI Platform Engineering & MLOps
 

• Prototype and operationalize advanced AI solutions, including GenAI and LLM-based systems.
  Architect end-to-end MLOps capabilities, including model lifecycle management, CI/CD for ML, feature stores, model monitoring, and drift detection.
• Define enterprise patterns for training, fine-tuning, deployment, and observability of ML and GenAI workloads.
• Guide teams on productionizing PoCs into scalable, resilient, and supportable AI systems.
• Partner with platform teams to evolve a shared enterprise AI platform.

AWS-Centric AI Architecture
 

• Design AI and GenAI solutions using AWS-native services, including (but not limited to):
• Amazon Bedrock, SageMaker, Lambda, ECS/EKS
• S3, DynamoDB, Aurora, OpenSearch
• IAM, KMS, VPC, CloudWatch
• Define cost, performance, and scalability guardrails for AI workloads on AWS.
• Ensure architectures follow Well-Architected Framework principles.

Governance, Risk, and Responsible AI
 

• Partner with security, legal, and compliance teams to define AI governance, guardrails, and controls.
• Embed responsible AI principles, data privacy, and explainability into enterprise designs.
• Establish standards for model access, auditability, and risk management.

Technical Leadership & Influence
 

• Act as a principal-level advisor to senior technology and business leaders.
  Champion hands-on experimentation and rapid solution delivery while maintaining technical excellence.
• Mentor architects and senior engineers on AI architecture and MLOps best practices.
• Drive alignment across teams by publishing reference architecture, design standards, and decision frameworks.
• Represent the organization in architecture forums, reviews, and strategic initiatives.
