Architect and implement secure, highly scalable integrations between our AI platform and the clients existing data pipelines, APIs, and infrastructure.
Lead authoritative technical discovery sessions, architecture workshops, and data readiness assessments with customer IT, data, and engineering leadership teams.
Build and customize robust AI-enabled solutions, scripts, and workflows that directly address the complex business problems identified through the sales process.
Serve as the primary technical liaisonand escalation pointbetween customer engineering teams and our internal product, engineering, and data science teams to rapidly unblock deployments
Ensure all deployed solutions across your portfolio meet rigorous, enterprise-grade standards for performance, security, data privacy, and scalability.

What We Need

Experience:

8+ years in software engineering, data engineering, or technical architecture (Staff/Principal Level): You have a proven track record of architecting, building, and deploying complex technical solutions at scale, ideally in SaaS, AI/ML, or cloud-native environments.
Elite forward-deployed or client-facing engineering experience: You are highly comfortable writing production-grade code and designing distributed systems while actively engaging with, and leading, external enterprise clients. You expertly know how to navigate the intricacies and complexities of sprawling enterprise IT environments.
Proven experience delivering concurrent technical integrations: You have a rock-solid foundation in successfully taking a portfolio of projects from conceptual architecture diagrams to live, scalable production systems on time.

Skills:

Deep technical fluency in AI/ML and Data Infrastructure: You possess highly advanced programming skills (e.g., Python, TypeScript) and a deep, authoritative understanding of cloud architectures (AWS, GCP, or Azure), REST APIs, database management (SQL/NoSQL), and modern data pipelines.
Applied AI/ML Knowledge: You understand intimately how to work with Large Language Models (LLMs), embeddings, vector databases, and machine learning deployment principles in enterprise settings.
Executive-Level Technical Communication: While the Project Lead handles business translation, you must excel at explaining, defending, and aligning complex technical architectures, security postures, and integration requirements to client engineers, CISOs, and IT Directors.
Systems Thinking and Debugging: You have an elite knack for identifying technical roadblocks early, designing robust architectures that anticipate massive scale, and systematically debugging deeply entrenched issues across distributed systems.

Mindset and Approach:

Symbiotic Collaborator: You thrive in a "two-in-a-box" model. You rely on your Project Lead to manage stakeholders and scope, while they rely on you to guarantee the technical reality of the solution. You communicate technical risks to them proactively and consistently.
Builder and Problem Solver: You are intensely hands-on. You don't just design solutions on a whiteboard ; you are eager to dive deep into the data, write complex integration code, and make the platform work seamlessly for the customer.
Quality and Security Focused: You treat customer data and system integrity with the highest possible level of care, strictly ensuring that every deployment adheres to enterprise-grade security and compliance standards.
