Job description

I’m working with a global organisation investing heavily in its AI capability and looking for an AI Solution Architect to play a key role in shaping what comes next.

The role sits at the intersection of AI architecture, hands-on technical delivery and advisory. You’ll help define how AI solutions should be designed and built, guide engineers through delivery, and work directly with senior stakeholders on complex business problems.

There is also a genuine client-facing element, so this would particularly suit someone who enjoys combining deep technical expertise with consulting, solutioning and pre-sales.

The Role

You’ll take ownership of end-to-end architecture across a growing portfolio of AI initiatives, covering both internal transformation and external solutions.

You’ll be responsible for:

  • Translating business problems into practical AI architectures and technical solutions
  • Owning solution design from initial requirements through to delivery
  • Architecting agentic AI systems using model APIs, orchestration frameworks, RAG and retrieval patterns
  • Making informed decisions between different models, platforms, low-code solutions and custom development
  • Designing integrations, APIs, data pipelines and the underlying data architecture required by AI applications
  • Working extensively across Microsoft technologies including Copilot Studio, Power Platform, Azure and Microsoft 365
  • Establishing reusable architectural patterns and engineering standards
  • Considering security, governance, performance, resilience, data residency and cost throughout solution design
  • Providing technical direction and mentorship to engineers
  • Supporting client conversations, technical discovery, proposals and pre-sales activity
  • Presenting complex technical concepts credibly to both technical and non-technical stakeholder, Rather than inheriting a mature function and maintaining somebody else’s architecture, you’ll have significant influence over how the capability develops - including technology choices, engineering standards, delivery approach and future team direction.

You’ll also get exposure to both internal AI transformation and external advisory work, giving the role considerably more breadth than a standard internal Solution Architect position., Area Sales Manager - Building Plastics Job Title: Area Sales Manager - Building Plastics Industry Sector: Roofline, Rainwater Systems, Bath Panels, Underground Drainage, Cellular Plastics & Room Liner, Window Trims,… 23h ago Apply, The Opportunity We are looking for a personable and commercially driven Travel Sales Executive to join a friendly and successful travel sales team based in Richmond.

Requirements

  • I’m interested in speaking with people from Solution Architecture, AI Engineering, Solutions Engineering, Forward Deployed Engineering or technical consulting backgrounds.
  • You’ll ideally bring strong experience across several of the following:
  • AI / LLM solution architecture
  • Agentic AI systems
  • RAG and retrieval architectures
  • Model APIs and orchestration frameworks
  • Microsoft Copilot Studio
  • Power Platform / Power Automate / Dataverse
  • Azure and Microsoft 365
  • Python and/or TypeScript
  • APIs, integrations and data architecture
  • AI governance, security and cost optimisation
  • Technical consulting, stakeholder management or pre-sales, If you’re currently working across AI architecture, solutions engineering, FDE or technical consulting and want a role where you can genuinely help build the capability rather than simply operate within it, I’d be interested in speaking with you ASAP.
