About the role

We are looking for a Solutions Architect, Data & AI to help shape client solutions from discovery and technical strategy through architecture, estimation, delivery guidance, and production handover.

This role is ideal for someone who combines strong technical depth with a consultancy mindset, client-facing communication skills, and the ability to translate complex business needs into clear, scalable, and ROI-driven technology solutions.

What you’ll do

  • Lead discovery workshops with clients to understand business goals, technical constraints, data maturity, and AI opportunities.
  • Design end-to-end data and AI architectures across cloud, lakehouse, warehouse, analytics, ML, and GenAI use cases.
  • Define solution blueprints using platforms such as Databricks, Microsoft Fabric, Azure, AWS, GCP, Snowflake, Delta Lake, and related technologies.
  • Translate business requirements into technical roadmaps, architecture diagrams, delivery estimates, and implementation plans.
  • Identify where AI, machine learning, LLMs, RAG, vector search, automation, or analytics can create measurable business value.
  • Guide teams in building scalable data pipelines, governed data platforms, AI applications, and reusable engineering frameworks.
  • Support pre-sales activities by contributing to proposals, solution narratives, technical estimations, client presentations, and proof-of-concept plans.
  • Define best practices for data modeling, medallion architecture, SCD/CDC, metadata-driven engineering, data quality, governance, security, and observability.
  • Collaborate with engineering teams during delivery to ensure that architecture decisions are implemented correctly and sustainably.
  • Review technical designs, mentor engineers, and help raise delivery standards across the Data & AI practice.
  • Stay informed about advancements in cloud, Databricks, Microsoft Fabric, GenAI, LLMs, vector databases, and AI engineering practices.

What we are looking for

  • 6+ years of experience in data engineering, software engineering, cloud architecture, AI engineering, or a related technical field.
  • Strong experience designing and delivering enterprise data platforms, lakehouses, warehouses, analytics platforms, or AI-enabled solutions.
  • Hands-on experience with Azure, Databricks, Delta Lake, PySpark, SQL, Python, and modern data orchestration tools.
  • Strong understanding of data modeling concepts, including dimensional modeling, Data Vault, medallion architecture, SCD Type 1/2, CDC, schema evolution, and metadata-driven pipelines.
  • Experience with cloud-native solution design, including security, scalability, cost optimization, monitoring, CI/CD, and operational readiness.
  • Practical understanding of AI and GenAI solution patterns, including LLMs, embeddings, vector databases, RAG, prompt engineering, model evaluation, and AI application integration.
  • Ability to estimate technical work, define delivery phases, identify risks, and communicate trade-offs clearly.
  • Strong client-facing communication skills and the ability to explain technical concepts to business stakeholders.
  • Experience mentoring engineers and guiding technical delivery across multiple workstreams.
  • Strong ownership mindset, structured thinking, and the ability to operate confidently in ambiguous client environments.

Nice to have

  • Experience with Microsoft Fabric, Snowflake, Unity Catalog, Purview, dbt, Airflow, MLflow, or DataOps tools.
  • Experience with LangChain, LangGraph, CrewAI, Semantic Kernel, OpenAI, Hugging Face, Chroma, Qdrant, Milvus, Pinecone, or similar AI and vector search technologies.
  • Experience designing architectures for regulated industries such as finance, energy, manufacturing, healthcare, or enterprise software.
  • Experience in consulting, pre-sales, technical discovery, or proposal development.
  • Cloud, Databricks, Microsoft Fabric, Snowflake, architecture, or AI-related certifications.
  • Experience building proof-of-concepts that later evolved into production systems.

What we offer

  • A senior role with direct influence over Magix AI’s Data & AI practice.
  • Opportunity to shape complex international projects from strategy to production.
  • Exposure to modern data, cloud, and AI technologies.
  • A collaborative team of experienced engineers, architects, and AI specialists.
  • Support for certifications, learning, conferences, and professional growth.
  • Hybrid or remote work model, private health insurance, and competitive benefits.
