• Establish and enforce engineering best practices, focusing on code quality, reliability, and operational efficiency.
• Set technical direction and ensure alignment with enterprise goals and standards.

Enterprise Platform Architecture

• Architect scalable, secure, and resilient AI systems on Azure (and other cloud environments as needed), working with Large Language Models (LLMs), and collaborating with cross-functional teams to integrate AI into products and processes. A strong technical foundation in areas like Python, AI/ML frameworks, and cloud platforms, combined with project management and leadership skills, are essential for this role.
• Define Power Platform apps from end-to-end, including backend data pipelines.
• Define and enforce architectural standards, including microservices, event-driven design, and API-first principles.

Multi-Tenancy & SaaS Architecture

• Architect multi-tenant B2B environments with tenant-aware data partitions using Cosmos DB and Azure AD B2C/Entra ID to ensure data, security, and cost isolation.
• Build per-tenant vector stores, knowledge bases, and connectors to support customer-specific document ingestion and retrieval.
• Implement telemetry, metering, and consumption-based billing dashboards to track tenant-level usage and optimize resource allocation.

GenAI & Agent Integration

• Design and implement advanced GenAI solutions, including agent-based systems for automation, orchestration, and intelligent workflows.
• Integrate large language models (LLMs), Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), and custom agents with business processes and user-facing applications.
• Lead design using frameworks such as Semantic Kernel, LangChain, AutoGen, or CrewAI to build orchestration among multiple specialized agents.
• Lead domain-specific fine-tuning and adaptation of large language models using Azure OpenAI Service or third-party frameworks (e.g., Tinker AI, LoRA, PEFT, or Delta Tuning).
• Design modular fine-tuning workflows to create tenant-aware or task-specific models that enhance personalization while maintaining shared governance and security.
• Implement automated retraining and evaluation loops to continuously improve response accuracy, tone, and compliance across tenants.
• Design agent toolkits that connect external APIs, databases, and Power Platform components for automated workflows.

Model Lifecycle and LLMOps

•         Oversee model evaluation, tuning, and continuous improvement cycles using reinforcement learning from human feedback (RLHF) or synthetic data augmentation.

•         Establish model-drift detection and retraining triggers to sustain model performance across customer domains.

•         Track usage analytics to measure model performance, accuracy, and user engagement.

•         Govern token usage, compute allocation, and cost optimization strategies using Azure Cost Management.

•         Manage versioning of models, prompts, and embeddings to ensure reproducibility, auditability, and traceability as part of the ongoing GenAI lifecycle operations.

• Leverage Azure ML pipelines or Databricks workflows to automate dataset curation and model retraining schedules.
• Compute & Scalability
• Optimize compute resources using Azure Functions, AKS, and serverless architectures for cost-effective, high-performance workloads.
• Implement auto-scaling, load balancing, and failover strategies for mission-critical applications.
• Security, Compliance & Reliability
• Champion security best practices, including identity management, data protection, and compliance (e.g., SOC2, GDPR).
• Establish monitoring, alerting, and incident response protocols for platform reliability and operational excellence.
• Stakeholder Engagement & Communication
• Act as a technical liaison between engineering, product, business, and executive teams.
• Communicate complex technical concepts clearly to non-technical stakeholders.
