What are the responsibilities and job description for the Senior Artificial Intelligence Architect position at SADA, An Insight company?
Join SADA as a Senior Artificial Intelligence Architect
Your Mission
As a Senior Artificial Intelligence Architect at SADA, you will work in a fast-paced, highly-skilled team developing state-of-the-art enterprise solutions using a wide variety of artificial intelligence technologies. You will work directly with customers, engineers, sales teams and partners to deliver high quality professional service engagements to SADA's customers. SADA is a premier partner of Google Cloud Platform (GCP), and as such, your implementations will focus on enabling customers to best utilize GCP or to demonstrate its capabilities.
You will be responsible for building cloud-native artificial intelligence solutions using Google's Vertex AI platform and all related technologies, such as Gemini large language models, Vertex AI, LangChain, Agent Development Kit, Vector Search and more. You may also be responsible for implementing domain-specific solutions such as Vertex AI Search for Retail or Contact Center AI Platform. This is a hands-on role that will include both architecting and implementing AI solutions.
Artificial intelligence is an extremely dynamic and quick-changing discipline. Therefore, your approach for learning new technology will be as important as any prior knowledge. We are looking for a "professional tinkerer" with a passion for continuous learning and a knack for problem solving. Someone that learns fast and pivots even faster. That always says "I'll figure it out" instead of "I don't know."
Your day-to-day will consist of the following activities:
Customer-Facing - Daily interactions with customers, including standups or sales meetings; at other times, weekly/bi-weekly as for sprint planning, reviews/retrospectives, or demos. These interactions will be with roles ranging from engineers to key executive stakeholders.
Travel - Up to 35% travel to customer sites, conferences, and other related events.
