Senior Multi-domain Architect (AI)

Job Description

Responsibilities

• You will be able to define architectural vision and architecture for large and complex capabilities supporting the Network AI and Agentic Transformation across strategy, engineering, and deterministic automation needs.
• Work across business and technology stakeholders to shape architecture for AI-enabled use-cases, orchestration patterns, integration capabilities, and deterministic automation solutions across multiple domains.
• Evaluate system impacts, interfaces, dependencies, and architectural implications of new use-cases, platform capabilities, and delivery approaches, and guide solution decisions accordingly.
• Lead rapid shaping of high-level architecture for complex solutions, with detail added iteratively as business requirements, technical options, and implementation constraints emerge.
• You will ensure architecture is flexible, modular, and designed to adapt to changing use-case priorities, new AI capabilities, and shifting transformation demand across pillars.
• Contribute to and evolve reusable architectural patterns, templates, standards, and design guidance that improve consistency across AI delivery, orchestration, and deterministic automation implementations.
• You will partner with engineering and delivery teams to clarify architecture, support implementation planning, and resolve architectural impediments throughout execution.
• Define and communicate non-functional requirements and architectural guardrails to ensure solutions are secure, resilient, scalable, supportable, and compliant with enterprise standards.
• What we are looking for: Considerable experience defining architecture and architectural vision for large, complex technology capabilities spanning application, data, integration, automation, and workflow domains.
• Extensive experience using Python Ability to operate flexibly across strategy, architecture, engineering, and automation domains, supporting whichever pillar has the greatest need at a given time.
• Experience shaping architecture for AI-enabled use-cases, workflow orchestration, tool integration, and deterministic automation execution patterns across multiple teams or domains.
• Strong understanding of how to evaluate system impacts, interfaces, dependencies, non-functional requirements, and implementation trade-offs for complex enterprise solutions.
• Ability to translate evolving business and transformation objectives into architectural direction, implementation pathways, reusable patterns, and future-state design considerations.
• Experience facilitating solution-driven discussions and helping stakeholders move from high-level concepts to scalable, modular, and governed architectural choices.
• Considerable knowledge of enterprise architecture standards, technology governance, security expectations, and controlled delivery requirements in a regulated environment.
• Familiarity with AI and agentic solution concepts, including context grounding, tool interaction patterns, model-enabled workflows, orchestration approaches, and guardrail considerations.
• Ample understanding of deterministic automation concepts, including workflow sequencing, approval points, rollback considerations, exception handling, and separation of decision and execution layers.
• Experience working across architecture, engineering, product, delivery, and operations stakeholders to establish alignment on design intent, delivery feasibility, and implementation readiness.
• Ability to define non-functional requirements covering security, performance, resiliency, scalability, maintainability, supportability, and observability for complex solutions.
• Experience contributing to reusable reference patterns, architectural standards, templates, roadmaps, and design guidance that improve consistency and speed across teams and domains.
• Skills that will help: Ample analytical thinking and architectural judgment, including the ability to compare solution options, evaluate longer-term implications, and guide trade-off decisions at scale.
• Experience supporting more junior architects or engineers through architectural guidance, design reviews, and practical mentorship.
• Ample written and verbal communication skills with the ability to explain architecture, risks, constraints, and implementation implications clearly to technical and non-technical audiences, including senior stakeholders.
