Position Summary
The Architect, AI/ML will serve as a hands-on technical leader responsible for modernizing our Approvals platform — replacing legacy BPM systems with intelligent, agentic workflows powered by large language models. This individual will directly own the design and development of prompting infrastructure, orchestration layers, multi-agent systems, and fine-tuning pipelines, while enabling the broader engineering organization to adopt and extend these capabilities.
Key Responsibilities
• Lead the architectural transformation from rule-based BPM to agentic, LLM-powered approval workflows — defining the long-term vision and driving hands-on execution
• Design, build, and own the prompting layer and orchestration infrastructure on top of foundation models, including RAG pipelines, context injection, multi-agent coordination, and human-in-the-loop escalation patterns
• Lead hands-on fine-tuning efforts, making principled trade-offs between adaptation approaches (LoRA, PEFT, instruction tuning, RLHF). You keep up with the latest techniques for fine tuning
• Establish LLMOps practices for production reliability, observability, and drift detection
• Diagnose and resolve production issues in LLM-powered systems; develop runbooks and raise engineering team capability through direct collaboration and pairing
• Partner with product and engineering leadership to define and sequence the agentic BPM roadmap
Required Qualifications
• 4–5+ years of hands-on machine learning experience in production environments; direct coding expectations — this is not a staff or advisory role
• Demonstrated experience building prompting layers and orchestration systems on top of foundation models
• Proven track record of shipping LLM-based systems to production
• Deep expertise in LLM fine-tuning methodologies and agentic system design
Preferred Qualifications
• Prior experience modernizing or replacing BPM systems with AI-driven alternatives
• Experience with multi-agent orchestration frameworks
• Background in enterprise workflow automation or approvals domains
• Familiarity with cloud-native ML infrastructure
