Job description About the role
We’re looking for a Chief AI Architect to lead a project with an overall AI vision, strategy, and execution, ensuring alignment with business objectives and long-term growth goals.
You’ll act as the principal architect and implementer of AI solutions — from design and prototyping to large-scale deployment across business functions.
This is a senior, high-impact role for someone w...ho combines deep technical acumen with strategic leadership and hands-on delivery.
What you'll do
• Collaborate with executive leadership to identify high-impact AI opportunities that drive operational efficiency, innovation, and revenue growth.
• Build and lead a cross-functional AI Center of Excellence, bringing together data scientists, engineers, and domain experts to deliver enterprise-grade AI solutions.
• Champion the use of generative AI, machine learning, NLP, and advanced analytics to enhance products, services, and internal processes.
• Oversee the development and governance of data infrastructure, ensuring data quality, accessibility, and compliance with privacy and security standards.
• Establish and enforce AI ethics, risk management, and responsible AI practices within the organization.
• Develop strategic partnerships with technology providers, academic institutions, and research organizations to accelerate AI innovation.
• Serve as a technical advisor to leadership, translating complex AI concepts into actionable insights and business value.
• Stay ahead of emerging technologies and lead hands-on experimentation, prototyping, and technical evaluations of new AI tools and models.
• Establish robust MLOps practices and CI/CD pipelines to ensure reliable, scalable, and observable AI systems in production.
• Lead enterprise-wide AI risk assessments, including model bias audits, explainability standards, and compliance reporting for regulators or clients.
Requirements
• 15+ years of experience in digital technology, with at least 4 years in AI/ML leadership roles across implementation, research, or product environments.
• Proven track record of end-to-end delivery of AI systems, from conceptualization to production — including model development, MLOps, and integration.
• Demonstrated experience translating AI strategy into business impact, with measurable ROI and operational outcomes.
• Deep technical expertise in machine learning, deep learning frameworks (TensorFlow, PyTorch), large language models, and cloud AI platforms.
• Strong background in data engineering, including data pipelines, architecture, and governance frameworks.
• Strong software engineering background, capable of guiding teams through architectural decisions, code reviews, and deployment processes.
• Excellent understanding of AI ethics, data privacy, and regulatory frameworks (GDPR, responsible AI guidelines, etc.).
• Exceptional leadership and communication skills — able to engage with both technical teams and non-technical executives.
• Entrepreneurial mindset with the ability to innovate, experiment, and deliver in fast-moving environments.
• Experience architecting and deploying generative AI / LLM solutions (e.g., RAG systems, fine-tuned models, agentic workflows) at enterprise scale.
• Hands-on experience with major cloud AI ecosystems (AWS SageMaker, Azure AI, Google Vertex AI) and familiarity with multi-cloud or hybrid deployment strategies.
• Track record of building and mentoring high-performing, cross-disciplinary AI teams in matrixed or fast-scaling organizations.
• Familiarity with AI procurement and vendor evaluation — ability to assess build vs. buy decisions, negotiate with technology partners, and manage vendor SLAs.
• Comfort operating in ambiguity — proven ability to set structure, prioritize competing opportunities, and deliver results without a fully defined playbook. Show full description Report this listing Loading...
