AI Architect (Enterprise AI | LLMs | Applied AI Strategy)

Remote (U.S. Preferred) | Full-Time | Executive-Level Impact

Architect the Future of AI in the Enterprise

A forward-thinking organization is seeking an AI Architect to design, scale, and operationalize enterprise-grade AI systems that drive real business transformation.

This is not a research role. This is about building and embedding AI into core business operations—from strategy to execution.

If you know how to translate AI capability into enterprise value, architect scalable systems, and lead cross-functional adoption, this is a career-defining opportunity.

What You'll Own:

  • Design and lead the end-to-end AI architecture across enterprise systems
  • Define strategy for LLMs, AI workflows, and intelligent automation
  • Build scalable AI/ML pipelines and production-ready systems (LLMOps / MLOps)
  • Partner with executive stakeholders to align AI initiatives with business outcomes
  • Architect integrations across data platforms, APIs, and enterprise applications
  • Establish AI governance frameworks, including security, compliance, and ethical use
  • Evaluate and select AI tools, models, and platforms (OpenAI, Anthropic, open-source, etc.)
  • Lead and mentor teams across engineering, data, and product

What You Bring:

  • 8–15+ years in software engineering, data, or AI/ML systems
  • Proven experience designing and deploying AI systems at scale
  • Deep knowledge of:
    • LLMs and generative AI architectures
    • Cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP)
    • APIs, microservices, and distributed systems
    • Data pipelines and ML lifecycle management
  • Strong ability to translate business problems into technical solutions
  • Experience influencing executive stakeholders and cross-functional teams

Highly Preferred:

  • Experience building AI agents, workflow automation, or multi-step reasoning systems
  • Exposure to LLMOps frameworks and evaluation methodologies
  • Background in enterprise transformation or consulting environments
  • Knowledge of AI governance, risk, and compliance frameworks

Compensation:

  • $190K – $220K base salary (flexible based on experience)
  • Bonus and/or equity potential
  • Fully remote with high visibility and impact

Why This Role Stands Out

  • Own enterprise AI architecture at a strategic level
  • Directly influence how AI transforms business operations
  • Work in a high-growth, innovation-driven environment
  • Blend strategy + architecture + execution

Why Work with Northwest Talent Solutions

  • Precision Alignment: We match you to roles where you can lead and scale impact
  • Direct Access: Faster interview cycles with decision-makers
  • Strategic Advocacy: We position you at the right level—not just any role
