Role Expectation: -

As an Enterprise Architect, you will own the end-to-end technology blueprint, spanning backend platforms (Java/.NET, Python), frontend frameworks (React, Angular, Node.js), real-time data streaming, and AI-driven/agentic services. You will translate business objectives into an actionable, multi-year technology and AI roadmap; ensure that every layer (application, data, infrastructure, security, AI, agentic agents) is aligned and future-proof; and act as the bridge between C-suite strategy, product, sales engineering (presales), and delivery teams.

Key Deliverables & Success Metrics

1. Architecture & AI Roadmap

• Deliver a three-year, multi-domain blueprint covering cloud, data, integration, AI/ML, and agentic-AI agents

• Stand up an AI & Agentic Architecture Council (quarterly) driving adoption of generative AI, conversational agents, and MLOps standards

• AI-First Proof-of-Concepts & Agentic Demos

• Lead 4–6 POCs/year around AI/ML and agentic use cases (e.g., LLM-powered assistants, workflow orchestration bots)

• Measure POC success by model accuracy (+15% lift), inference latency (2× faster), and business KPIs (reduced support tickets, increased demo‐to‐close rate)

• Team Enablement & AI Mentorship

• Launch a monthly “AI & Agentic Deep Dive” series to upskill engineers, data scientists, and presales consultants on ML frameworks (Tensor

Flow, Py

Torch), conversational-AI patterns, and agent orchestration

• Embed AI/agentic design patterns into standard playbooks (prompt engineering, feedback loops, multi-agent coordination)

• GTM & Presales Enablement

• Collaborate with Sales Engineering to craft technical demos, solution blueprints, and ROI analyses for enterprise prospects

• Support bid responses and RFPs with architecture diagrams, security/compliance narratives, and scalability proof points

• Resilience & Responsible AI

• Define and track system and model health metrics (system uptime ≥99.9%; model drift ≤5% per quarter)

• Lead “AI fairness & ethics” reviews, ensuring bias detection, explainability, and compliance with GDPR/ADA

Expanded Responsibilities

A. Strategic Architecture & Agentic-AI Planning

• Enterprise Blueprint: Evolve the canonical reference architecture to include AI/ML pipelines, feature stores, inference-at-the-edge, and autonomous agent orchestration
• Cloud & Hybrid AI: Architect cloud-native AI/agentic services (Sage

Maker, Azure ML, Vertex AI Agents), hybrid inference runtimes, and GPU/TPU provisioning strategies

• Standards & Policies: Author AI governance policies—data privacy, model validation, versioning, rollback strategies, and agent safety guardrails

B. Solution & AI-Driven Design

• Core Platforms: Architect mission-critical microservices on Java/Spring Boot, .NET Core, and Python (Django, Flask, FastAPI) with embedded AI inference and agentic endpoints (REST/GRPC)
• Frontend & Full-Stack: Design rich client applications using React, Angular, or Vue.js; backend APIs with Node.js/Express or Python frameworks; implement CI/CD for full-stack deployments
• Data & Streaming: Design streaming ETL with Kafka + Spark/Flink feeding feature stores, real-time scoring engines, and agent event buses
• MLOps & AI Ops: Define CI/CD for models (training, validation, deployment), automated retraining triggers, canary and shadow deployments, plus agent lifecycle management

C. Governance & Responsible AI

• Architecture Reviews: Include an “ML & agentic risk” dimension in every design review (performance, security, bias, unintended behaviors)
• Security & Compliance: Partner with Info

Sec to secure code, model artifacts, and agent logic (encryption, access controls, audit trails); vet third-party AI/agentic services

• Fin

Ops for AI: Implement cost-optimization for GPU/compute, track ROI on AI and agentic initiatives (cost per model endpoint, agent-handling cost per transaction)

D. Leadership, GTM & Collaboration

• Cross-Functional Engagement: Work closely with Product, UX, Sales Engineering, and Security to define AI/use-case roadmaps, demo strategies, and success criteria
• Presales Coaching: Mentor Solutions Architects and Sales Engineers on technical storytelling, POC/demo best practices, and objection handling around AI and agentic capabilities
• Community Building: Sponsor internal hackathons, open-source contributions (e.g., agent frameworks such as Auto

Gen, Lang

Chain), and external speaking opportunities

E. AI & Agentic POC, Innovation, and GTM

• Rapid Experimentation: Prototype generative AI agents, semantic search with vector databases, autonomous workflow bots, and conversational-AI pipelines
