About the Project

Our client is scaling an enterprise AI search and conversational platform supporting benefits and care navigation across multiple lines of business. The platform is evolving toward an agent-driven architecture that integrates enterprise knowledge bases, LLMs, and orchestration layers to deliver trustworthy, contextual responses to members.

This role will define the architectural foundation and governance model for agentic AI, RAG systems, and AI integration across secure digital platforms.

Role Summary

The AI/ML Architect will lead the design of the agent processing and AI orchestration layer that powers intelligent search and conversational experiences. This role focuses on architecture, standards, governance, observability, and enterprise integration patterns — ensuring AI systems are scalable, secure, and production-ready.

This architect will also mentor engineers, establish best practices, and help build a repeatable playbook for enterprise AI delivery.
