Role Summary / Description

AI Powered Tech Talent

As an Technical Architect in AI Infrastructure Architecture, you will act as a senior technical authority for Google Cloud-based AI/ML compute infrastructure, shaping the technical vision, reference architecture, standards and implementation strategy for large-scale AI systems. You will evaluate complex choices across compute, networking, storage, orchestration, model serving, observability, security and cost optimization, while guiding senior and lead architects/Technical Architects to deliver resilient, scalable and production-ready AI infrastructure. You will bring industry experience across enterprise AI adoption, compliance, reliability, FinOps and platform modernization to help clients translate AI infrastructure trade-offs into measurable business value.

Key Responsibilities

Set the overarching GCP AI infrastructure vision, strategy and reference architecture for large-scale AI/ML systems, including compute, networking, storage, orchestration, model serving and observability.

Own complex architectural decisions across GCP services such as Compute Engine, GKE, Vertex AI, Cloud Storage, Filestore, VPC, IAM, Cloud Build, Cloud Monitoring and Cloud Logging, rationalizing options against client standards and business objectives.

Architect and prototype cost-optimized accelerated compute and distributed training environments, building benchmarks, proof-of-concepts and reusable implementation patterns.

Define architecture standards, reusable infrastructure-as-code patterns, CI/CD approaches, model deployment patterns, monitoring strategy, SLAs/SLOs and cost/performance governance for production AI/ML systems.

Lead architecture assessments and design reviews validate findings through hands-on implementation, profiling, performance tuning and troubleshooting across the AI infrastructure stack.

Evaluate emerging AI infrastructure technologies, accelerators, interconnects, managed AI services and ecosystem tools, and recommend where they belong in enterprise solutions.

Provide executive and client-level technical advisory, translating cloud infrastructure trade-offs into clear, defensible recommendations connected to business outcomes.

Mentor architects and Technical Architects, build community best practices and represent the practice in internal and external technical forums.

Required Qualifications

Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Technical Architecting, Information Technology or a related Technical Architecting field.

Minimum 6 years of experience coding, building, monitoring, troubleshooting, designing and operating AI/ML infrastructure, cloud platforms, data platforms, model deployment pipelines or large-scale Technical Architecting solutions.

Strong understanding of AI/ML concepts and the compute, infrastructure, orchestration and deployment foundations required to run production AI systems.

Minimum 6 years of proficiency in programming or scripting languages such as Python, Java, C++, Bash, PowerShell or equivalent Technical Architecting languages.

Experience with data pipeline and workflow management tools such as Apache Airflow, Kubeflow, managed orchestration services or platform-native workflow tooling.

Proven experience leading AI infrastructure projects and teams, including technical direction, design reviews, delivery governance and stakeholder alignment.

Strong project management, communication, problem-solving and cross-functional collaboration skills in fast-paced client or enterprise environments.

Demonstrated experience evaluating and selecting AI technologies, frameworks, reference architectures and platform services for production solutions.

Required Skills/ Experience

Expert-level hands-on architecture experience with GCP AI infrastructure services including Compute Engine, GKE, Vertex AI, Cloud Storage, IAM, VPC, Cloud Build, Cloud Monitoring and Cloud Logging.

Deep knowledge of accelerated compute, distributed training, model serving, container platforms, storage design, network design, observability and resilience Technical Architecting.

Strong experience with Terraform, CI/CD, Docker, Kubernetes, security guardrails, monitoring and infrastructure cost optimization.

Ability to evaluate multiple GCP architecture options and produce standards, patterns, decision records, benchmarks and executive-ready recommendations.

Experience applying MLOps/InfraOps practices for experiment tracking, model registry, deployment automation, monitoring, incident response and rollback strategies.

Good to Have Skills

GCP certifications such as Professional Cloud Architect, Professional Data Technical Architect, Professional Machine Learning Technical Architect or Professional Cloud DevOps Technical Architect.

Industry experience designing AI infrastructure for BFSI, healthcare, retail/e-commerce, telecom, manufacturing, energy or public sector environments with compliance, security and reliability constraints.

Exposure to LLM infrastructure, vector databases, retrieval pipelines, GPU scheduling, model optimization, high-performance storage and low-latency model serving.

Experience with enterprise architecture governance, technology roadmaps, vendor/partner management, FinOps and production support operating models.
