~25% Client On-Site Travel About the Opportunity We are partnering with a high-growth, $1.8B+ valued Enterprise AI Leader (backed by over $200M in Tier-1 funding) that is re-architecting how Fortune 500 companies operate. Rather than building short-term, single-use-case proofs-of-concept, our client partners directly with C-suite executives at top-tier global enterprises to lead multi-year, AI-native transformations across entire business functions. As an Enterprise AI Architect , you will sit within Engineering and serve as the principal technical authority and long-term strategic partner to Fortune 20 / 500 client leadership.

Proven track record designing architectures for complex enterprise client environments or high-stakes verticals (e.g., Financial Services, Healthcare, Telecom, Pharma). High Technical Depth +

Soft Skills:

Exceptional ability to articulate complex technical trade-offs to non-technical C-suite stakeholders while maintaining the technical rigor to dive deep into backend architecture. Why Join?

High-Impact Work:

Work on multi-year, transformative AI projects for the largest companies in the world.
