You’re Good At:

We are seeking a Lead AI Platform Architect to design and guide the implementation of intelligent, agentic AI platforms. This role bridges platform architecture and hands-on technical leadership, ideal for someone who can design end-to-end AI platform solutions while remaining close to implementation through prototyping and architectural validation. You will work across AI, data, product, and engineering teams to define and deliver scalable AI architectures that integrate large language models (LLMs), data pipelines, and enterprise systems.

AI Architecture & Solution Design

• Design system architectures for AI and LLM-based solutions, balancing scalability, performance, modularity, and operational complexity.
• Evaluate emerging AI frameworks and tooling (e.g., LangChain, LlamaIndex, LangGraph, Strands, Google ADK, Semantic Kernel, etc.) and recommend fit-for-purpose usage.
• Design agentic AI solutions to enable intelligent workflow automation, including task decomposition, memory usage, and orchestration patterns.
• Define AI integration patterns such as RAG for context management, model orchestration, prompt workflows, and enterprise system connectivity.
• Contribute to architectural standards and design principles for model lifecycle management, data lineage, and responsible AI practices.
• Support architecture decisions for hybrid pipelines (batch training, real-time inference) with consideration for cost, latency, and operational risk.

Prototyping & Validation

• Develop proof-of-concepts and architectural prototypes to validate AI platform designs, RAG flows, and agent orchestration patterns.
• Support implementation of agentic workflows using modern orchestration and automation platforms in collaboration with engineering teams.

Implementation Management and Support

• Support teams and clients as AI platforms transition from prototype to production environments.
• Contribute to system performance, observability, and governance approaches as solutions scale.
• Help define development standards for versioning, testing, deployment, and monitoring of AI services and models (LLMOps).

Communication and Collaboration

• Translate complex AI platform concepts into clear narratives for both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• Deliver structured presentations, lead technical discussions, and support client decision-making.
• Collaborate closely with product managers, data scientists, and engineers to align architecture with business objectives.
• Facilitate technical working sessions and design workshops, providing architectural guidance and hands-on mentorship.
• Provide direction and constructive feedback on key technical work items across teams.

Team Management

• Support and guide junior team members by helping structure their work and technical approach.
• Mentor junior architects and technology consultants through ongoing feedback and development conversations.
• Provide quality assurance by reviewing outputs for technical correctness, clarity, and architectural alignment.
• Contribute to a positive team environment and model BCG’s culture and values.

Innovation and Growth

• Stay current on emerging techniques in agentic AI, RAG architectures, retrieval strategies, and AI platform patterns.
• Contribute ideas that improve AI platform architectures, delivery approaches, and client outcomes.
• Develop depth as a go-to expert in AI platform and agentic system design within project teams.
• Continuously build skills and technical breadth to increase impact over time.
• Support business development through technical input, architecture sections of proposals, and solution shaping.
• Build strong working relationships with client counterparts and internal stakeholders.

What You'll Bring

• Bachelor’s degree in information technology, computer science, engineering, or a related field (Master’s degree is a plus).
• 6+ years of experience in software engineering, data engineering, or AI systems with experience in architecture or technical leadership roles.
• Strong foundation in software architecture and distributed systems.
• Experience designing AI/ML or LLM-based systems in production or near-production environments.
• Proficiency in one or more programming languages (e.g., Python, Javascript, TypeScript) is nice to have.
• Experience using modern AI-assisted coding and development tools (e.g., Cursor, Claude Code, Replit, Lovable) to accelerate prototyping experimentation, and implementation of AI platform solutions.
• Familiarity with modern AI agentic frameworks (LangChain, LangGraph, Semantic Kernel, AutoGen, LlamaIndex, etc.).
• Working knowledge of agentic AI concepts including RAG, multi-agent orchestration, memory patterns, vector databases, and function-calling.
• Understanding of Cloud architecture, data platforms, and API-based system integration, with depth in at least one hyperscaler (AWS, Azure, or GCP).
• Experience of deploying AI solutions on cloud AI platforms and services
• Integration of AI workflow with enterprise systems and data sources
• Exposure to containerization and orchestration technologies (Docker, Kubernetes)
• Experience with AI developer tools and productivity accelerators is a plus.
• Familiarity with vector databases and retrieval patterns; exposure to Pinecone, Qdrant, Aure Search, or similar is beneficial.
• Strong analytical thinking, problem-solving skills, and attention to engineering quality.
• Ability to explain technical concepts clearly to senior technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• Consulting mindset with comfort operating in ambiguous, fast-paced environments.
