In this capacity, the professional acts as the senior technical leader on client engagements, guiding forward deployed engineers who construct and deploy agentic artificial intelligence within intricate enterprise environments. Large corporate ecosystems typically span decades of layered platforms, including enterprise resource planning systems, service and workflow platforms, customer relationship management tools, and security controls. The ideal candidate maps these complex architectures, translates business objectives into specific technical requirements, designs integration approaches, and secures approvals from customer information security officers and compliance teams. By navigating release processes, testing, and operational support, this role ensures that advanced automated workflows successfully transition from pilot phases into active production environments.
Furthermore, the position involves advising senior stakeholders such as chief information officers and enterprise architects while strengthening internal practices through reusable blueprints and integration playbooks.

- Convert business processes and workflows into structured technical requirements covering data, decisions, and approval gates
- Design system integration strategies using application programming interfaces, event streams, middleware, and tool-calling layers
- Guide agentic workflows through environment management, change control, testing, and release cycles into production
- Establish identity, access, and audit governance models to obtain sign-offs from client security and compliance teams
- Consult with senior client stakeholders to advise on architecture and identify expansion opportunities for automated use cases
- Contribute to internal practice development by creating reusable integration playbooks, readiness assessments, and technical blueprints
Requirements
- Possess seven to ten years of professional background in enterprise architecture, solution architecture, or technical leadership
- Demonstrate hands-on knowledge of at least two major enterprise software platforms regarding data models and extension frameworks
- Bring strong familiarity with enterprise integration patterns including application programming interfaces and middleware
- Show practical experience deploying artificial intelligence or automation applications in production settings
- Provide a proven history of steering enterprise systems through the complete lifecycle from design to operational support
- Exhibit solid understanding of enterprise security governance, identity management, and regulatory frameworks
- Have prior client-facing consulting experience within global system integrators, professional services, or software vendor teams
- Demonstrate experience acting as a technical lead guiding engineering teams during active delivery engagements
- Reside in the Western United States within the Mountain or Pacific time zone and maintain availability for up to 75% travel
Qualifications
- Hold a bachelor's degree in computer science, engineering, information systems, or a related field, or possess equivalent experience
- Maintain enterprise architecture frameworks such as TOGAF or relevant platform certifications
- Possess familiarity with agent frameworks, protocols, retrieval-augmented generation, and evaluation methodologies
- Have background with cloud computing platforms and modern data platforms
- Demonstrate experience working alongside embedded delivery models and forward deployed engineering teams
