Forward Deployed AI Architect IRC300053

Description

Department/Project Description

We are seeking a Forward-Deployed AI Product Architect to work at the intersection of core product engineering, AI orchestration, and high-impact client deployment. In this role, you will bridge the gap between our core AI platform capabilities and the highly regulated, complex workflows of our enterprise clients (specifically across FinTech, Financial Services, and Enterprise SaaS).

You are not just deploying a tool; you are embedding autonomous, intent-driven AI workflows into the client’s product ecosystem. This role requires a hands-on builder, deep product architect, and first-principles thinker who can gain trust with client developers and justify product ROI to executive stakeholders.

Requirements

Job Responsibilities

Domain-Specific AI Integration

Architect Intent-Driven Workflows: Design and deploy agentic AI workflows tailored to complex financial domain logic, ensuring systems can reliably process high-stakes data (e.g., automated credit underwriting analysis, regulatory compliance checking, or algorithmic fraud intent mapping).

Context-Aware RAG Pipelines: Build and optimize domain-specific Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) and vector database architectures that ingest massive, disparate financial data sources (e.g., SEC filings, transaction ledgers, legacy ERP schemas) to feed localized AI agents.

Bridge Legacy Core Systems: Design secure abstraction layers and Model Context Protocol (MCP) implementations that allow AI systems to interact seamlessly with legacy core-banking systems, monolithic financial ledgers, and rigid enterprise APIs.

Product Delivery & SDLC Acceleration

Accelerate Product Feature Delivery: Partner directly with the client’s product and engineering leadership to replace traditional, bottlenecked sprint cycles with autonomous delivery loops that generate domain-compliant code, comprehensive unit tests, and validation artifacts.

Establish Guardrails & AI Governance: Implement deterministic controls, “human-in-the-loop” verification, and automated compliance checks within the AI pipeline to meet strict financial sector regulatory standards (e.g., SEC, GDPR, SOC2).

Measure Engineering Velocity: Define, track, and report on hard product metrics resulting from AI implementation, such as reduction in feature-to-production cycle time, code review velocity, and coverage of automated edge-case test generation.

Forward-Deployed Customer Engagement

Embedded Engineering Leadership: Embed directly within client engineering teams as a trusted technical advisor, leading by example by writing code, evaluating architectures, and building working proofs of concept.

Translate Intent to Architecture: Map high-level business goals from client Product Managers into technical AI specifications, ensuring the AI agents accurately understand product requirements and domain constraints.

Executive Value Articulation: Present technical architectures, security postures, and measured business outcomes to both engineering teams and C-level executives (CTO, Chief Risk Officer, CPO).

Hands on in Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG), Vector Databases, Evaluation Frameworks, Prompt Engineering, Tool Calling, Function Calling, Multi-agent orchestration, AI Observability

Job responsibilities
