* Establish practical approaches for AI agents, AI-assisted coding, automated requirements development, and AI-enabled workflows
* Create guardrails that enable prototypes to transition efficiently into production environments
* Improve development processes, tooling, automation, source control, and deployment practices
* Partner with Product, Engineering, UX, business teams, and other architects to prioritize opportunities and determine appropriate delivery approaches
* Identify recurring business needs that can evolve into reusable enterprise capabilities
* Measure solution adoption, delivery efficiency, production readiness, and business impact
* Hire, coach, and develop architects and engineers while building a culture of technical excellence and experimentation
* Communicate complex architectural decisions and trade-offs clearly to stakeholders
REQUIREMENTS:
* Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Information Systems, or a related field, or equivalent professional experience

* Deep experience designing and delivering cloud-based business applications
* Hands-on knowledge of a major CRM platform such as Salesforce, including data models, integrations, workflow automation, and security
* Strong knowledge of architecture disciplines spanning integration, data, security, governance, and application design
* Experience building working prototypes directly with business users and rapidly incorporating feedback
* Hands-on exposure to generative AI, agentic development, AI-assisted coding, agent orchestration, or AI-enabled application workflows.
* Familiarity with modern rapid-development approaches, including low-code and lightweight deployment models.
* Strong judgment around scalability, security, technical risk, and production readiness.
* Excellent communication skills with the ability to influence both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
* Background in consulting, professional services, or another client- or advisor-driven environment
* Experience in forward-deployed, solutions engineering, or embedded technical delivery roles
* Familiarity with tools such as Claude Code, Cursor, Replit, or comparable AI development platforms
* Experience with CI/CD, source control, UX collaboration, or building a new technical capability within an established organization
