• Act as a GenAI subject matter expert, advising senior leadership on AI strategy, feasibility, and adoption paths.

LLM, RAG & Agentic Workflows:

• Architect knowledge bases and RAG architectures integrating structured and unstructured enterprise data sources.

• Establish agentic AI patterns, enabling multi-step reasoning, tool usage, workflow orchestration, and human-in-the-loop controls.

• Guide teams on prompt engineering, context management, and response grounding to improve accuracy, relevance, and user trust.

• Assist in the evaluation of commercial LLMs and SaaS AI platforms, selecting the right tools for different workloads.

AI Platforms, Gateways & Integration

o Authentication and authorization - Model routing and versioning

o Rate limiting, quotas, and cost controls - Logging, auditability, and observability

o Establish secure connectivity to LLM endpoints in the enterprise cloud,

documenting DNS, routing, IAM policies, firewall rules, and network controls.

o Integrate GenAI capabilities into existing enterprise systems and digital platforms.

Responsible AI, Security & Guardrails:

• Recommend layered guardrails across GenAI systems

• Embed Responsible AI principles—fairness, transparency, explainability, and

accountability—into architecture and delivery practices.

• Partner closely with security, privacy, legal, and compliance teams to meet enterprise

governance standards and emerging AI regulations.

• Define monitoring and evaluation frameworks to detect hallucinations, drift, misuse, and operational risks.

Innovation, Productivity & Enablement

• Drive GenAI initiatives focused on developer productivity, operational efficiency, and enhanced customer experiences.

• Stay current with emerging AI trends, tools, and architectures, assessing their applicability to enterprise use cases.

• Mentor engineers and architects, establishing best practices, architectural standards, and reusable components.

• Contribute to internal communities of practice and AI capability building.

Required Skills & Expertise:

• Fine-tuning strategies, adapters, and inference optimization

AI Architecture & Tooling

• Awareness of AI Gateway / model access layer design and access controls on the gateways.

• Proficiency in designing and implementing AI Gateway/model access layers to facilitate secure and scalable access to AI models.

• Experience in architecting solutions with vector databases and semantic search for efficient retrieval of information from large volumes of unstructured data.

• Skilled in leveraging document intelligence platforms (e.g., Azure Form Recognizer, AWS Textract, Google Document AI) for document classification, data extraction, and entity recognition from varied formats including scanned documents, PDFs, and handwritten forms.

• Knowledge of Intelligent Document Processing (IDP) solutions for automated ingestion, parsing, and validation of unstructured documents, ensuring accurate routing of documents to appropriate business workflows.

• Familiarity with workflow orchestration frameworks (such as LangChain, LangGraph, or equivalent) to automate end-to-end document processing pipelines, including document routing, exception handling, and integration with downstream systems.

• Understanding of optical character recognition (OCR), natural language processing (NLP) techniques, and entity linking for extracting actionable insights from diverse data types.

• Awareness of data validation, quality checks, and document lifecycle management best practices to ensure compliance and reliability in document processing solutions.

• End-to-end AI pipelines: ingestion, retrieval, generation, evaluation and rollout.

Responsible AI & Governance

• Prompt-injection mitigation and jailbreak prevention

• Content safety, moderation, and policy enforcement

• Human-in-the-loop architectures

• AI observability, monitoring, and evaluation frameworks

• Familiarity with MLOps / LLMOps practices
