ppAI Large Language Mode (LLM) Technology Lead/Principal Architect /p /brpCareer Level: Manager / Senior Manager / Associate Director /p /brh3YOU ARE /h3 /brpAs a Lead or Principal AI Architect, you will serve as the definitive technical authority on AI architecture within client engagements and across the practice.
You will own the complete, end-to-end architecture of advanced AI platforms and solutions — spanning classical machine learning, generative AI, and agentic systems — ensuring every domain of the architecture is cohesively designed, technically sound, and purposefully aligned to client business objectives and enterprise-grade standards.
/p /brpA defining dimension of this role is your ability tooperateat the executive level — working closely with CIOs, CTOs, and senior business leaders to help shape and articulate the enterprise AI strategy.
You will connect business goals, priorities, and transformation agendas to a coherent technical vision, ensuring AI investments are purposeful, sequenced, and positioned to deliver lasting competitive advantage.
This strategic partnership with client leadership distinguishes you as both a trusted advisor and a principal architect.
/p /brpIn this role, you will lead and integrate the work of multiple domain architects and subject matter specialists — across areas such as agentic application design, AI security and trust, AI operations and observability, data and knowledge engineering, and model platforms and inference — providing the architectural vision, technical governance, and cross-domain coherence that binds their contributions into a unified, enterprise-ready system.
You will set the architectural direction, resolve cross-domain tensions, and makethe criticaldesign decisions that shape the entire AI solution.
Beyond client delivery, you will be recognized as a thought leader and leading authority in AI — staying at the forefront of the latest research, emerging standards, industry innovations, and evolving technology landscapes.
You will actively shape the practice's AI architecture point of view, contribute to internal knowledge, frameworks, and reusable assets, and represent the firm externally through publications, conference engagements, and client advisory conversations.
Your perspective on where AI is heading will besoughtby clients, practice leadership, and peers alike.
/p /brpYou will evaluate and make definitive decisions on design patterns, technical frameworks, reference architectures, and technology selections — balancing innovation with pragmatism to deliver systems that are robust, scalable, and built to last.
This includes providing architectural oversight across AI agent ecosystems encompassing multi-agent orchestration, tool use, skills use, and memory systems, as well as foundation model integration, fine?tuning strategies, and classical ML model deployment within cohesive, production?ready platforms.
You will be accountable for ensuring the complete architecture meets the most rigorous non-functional requirements across security, observability, governance, performance, and scalability — and that these concerns are addressed holistically and consistently across all domains.
You will produce and govern the authoritative architecture artifacts that guide delivery at scale — including architecture decision records (ADRs), reference architectures, component and data flow diagrams, and integration specifications — and provide the executive-level technical leadership that gives cross-functional engineering teams, domain architects, and client stakeholders the clarity and confidence to execute.




Your work will be instrumental in defining how the most ambitious clients adopt, scale, and lead with AI — setting a standard for what advanced AI architecture can and should look like, and delivering transformational, lasting business value.
