AIA - Principal Architect

Job Summary

Serve as a principal architect designing advanced artificial intelligence and machine learning solutions on cloud infrastructure for a multinational organization using cloud native services and automation to deliver secure scalable and resilient platforms that create measurable value for customers and society while guiding teams through complex transformation initiatives in a hybrid work environment.

Responsibilities

• Drive end to end architecture for artificial intelligence and machine learning solutions on cloud infrastructure that address complex business challenges and create measurable outcomes for customers and communities through reliable and scalable digital products.
• Define reference architectures and reusable design patterns for cloud native data pipelines and machine learning platforms that enable rapid experimentation robust model deployment and consistent governance across multiple product lines.
• Design secure multi account cloud environments using infrastructure as code practices with cloud template automation to ensure repeatable compliant and auditable provisioning of networking compute storage and data services.
• Collaborate with data scientists engineers and product partners to translate analytical use cases into pragmatic technical designs that balance innovation performance cost efficiency and operational simplicity.
• Guide the selection configuration and integration of cloud machine learning services including model training feature storage orchestration and monitoring to build resilient pipelines from data ingestion through model lifecycle management.
• Oversee non functional architecture concerns such as resilience reliability observability privacy and regulatory compliance by embedding these controls into blueprints guardrails and automated validation checks from the start.
• Conduct architecture reviews and technical deep dives for critical initiatives providing structured recommendations that reduce risk improve system quality and align with enterprise strategy and external regulatory expectations.
• Mentor engineering and data teams on architectural best practices for artificial intelligence workloads including model deployment strategies data partitioning approaches cost optimization techniques and automation driven operations.
• Partner with cybersecurity and risk stakeholders to design identity access and data protection models that safeguard sensitive information used by artificial intelligence solutions while preserving usability and analytical agility.
