Invest in us and we'll invest in you! Job Description As an AI Solution Architect, you'll work with our government, financial services, and private sector clients to design and deliver AI solutions that solve real business problems. You'll bring together AI capabilities, sound solution design, and practical engineering experience to create production-grade systems that deliver measurable value - not proofs of concept that gather dust. Your work sits at the intersection of software engineering and AI, focusing on building scalable, secure systems that consume and orchestrate AI services rather than training foundation models from scratch. One week you might be designing a RAG architecture for a government department's knowledge management platform, the next you could be working with a financial services client to integrate agentic workflows into their existing operations, or guiding a delivery team through implementing responsible AI patterns on a live service. You'll establish architecture patterns and standards that accelerate AI adoption across our client base, embedding governance frameworks and security controls into solution designs from the outset. Whether that's evaluating the right AI platform for a client's use case, designing data pipelines to support model deployment, or presenting your solution approach to an architectural review board, you'll bring both hands-on AI engineering experience and sound architectural judgement to every engagement. Your background in solution architecture and building digital services means you understand how enterprise systems work in practice - and you've applied that foundation to designing and delivering AI-powered solutions at scale. You know how to move from experimentation to production - designing integration patterns for AI services, building reliable pipelines, and ensuring solutions meet the non-functional requirements that enterprise clients demand around performance, security, and compliance. You'll bring systems thinking that connects AI architectural decisions to broader service and business contexts, combined with a strong understanding of responsible AI principles including bias mitigation, transparency, and appropriate human oversight. You collaborate effectively with diverse teams including data scientists, software engineers, product managers, and senior business stakeholders, translating complex AI concepts into language that supports informed decision-making at all levels. As part of our central architecture team, you'll work alongside experienced Technology Principals and Solution Architects who share your drive to solve complex challenges. This gives you a strong support network to collaborate with, learn from different perspectives, and tackle problems together. AI is moving fast, and we recognise that staying current matters - you'll contribute to and shape our AI architectural approaches, share knowledge through internal sessions and technical documentation, and help build reference architectures that the wider organisation can draw on. Your expertise helps our clients adopt AI with confidence, building solutions that are not only technically sound but deliver meaningful outcomes for the people who use them. Qualifications Essential Requirements AI solution architecture - you have demonstrated experience designing and delivering AI-powered solutions at enterprise scale. You can evidence taking responsibility for end-to-end AI solution design from requirements through to production, across use cases such as generative AI applications, RAG systems, agentic workflows, or AI-assisted automation. You understand the architectural patterns, trade-offs, and constraints involved in building production AI systems and can make informed decisions about when and how to apply AI to business problems. Technical depth across cloud platforms - you have strong hands-on experience with cloud servic
