Role & responsibilities:
- Design end-to-end solutions for client engagements, from data and models to deployment, evaluation and operations.
- Lead RFP responses and proposals: solution outline, team shape, estimates, risks and success measures.
- Act as the senior technical voice with client sponsors, IT, security and business stakeholders.

- IT and operations agents, LLMOps, observability and integration with enterprise systems.
What you bring :
- A track record of client-accepted systems in production, and you can explain what broke after go-live and how you fixed it.
- Strong fundamentals beneath the frameworks: retrieval, evaluation, data modelling, distributed processing, cost and latency trade-offs
- Depth in your pod's focus area (above) and working knowledge of at least one major cloud.
- Experience writing proposals and estimates that held up in delivery.
- Clear, calm communication with both engineers and non-technical sponsors.
- Evidence of growing people: engineers you hired or coached who moved up.
