ABOUT THE ROLE
Jade Global is seeking a Technical Architect to join the AI & Digital Engineering (AI&DE) practice as a technically deep, delivery-focused architect. You will work as an embedded technical leader within engineering teams — translating architecture decisions into working solutions, ensuring quality in execution, and contributing to the development of AI-native frameworks and accelerators.
This role is best suited for an engineer who has grown into architecture through hands-on delivery experience, has strong command of both .NET and OpenSource stacks, and is eager to apply modern AI and cloud-native concepts to solve real enterprise problems.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
Technical Architecture & Delivery
- Own technical architecture decisions on delivery engagements — designing component-level solutions that align with broader architecture blueprints defined by the Solution or Principal Architect.
- Actively participate in engineering delivery, bridging the gap between architectural intent and implementation — reviewing code, driving technical design sessions, and unblocking development teams.
- Ensure technical quality across deliverables — conducting architecture and code reviews, validating implementation against design standards, and driving resolution of technical debt.
- Manage technical risk on delivery projects and escalate architectural concerns to the Solution Architect.
AI & Engineering Framework Adoption
- Learn, implement, and advocate for AI-native engineering practices — including GenAI integration patterns, agentic workflows, and intelligent automation — within delivery teams.
- Contribute to the development and maintenance of AI engineering frameworks, solution accelerators, and reusable technical assets.
- Evaluate and experiment with new tools, APIs, and platforms in the AI and cloud-native space — bringing relevant innovations into delivery practice.
Technical Consulting & Problem Solving
- Engage with client technical teams to understand system landscapes, integration requirements, and technical constraints.
- Propose pragmatic, technology-forward solutions to complex engineering challenges across application modernization, AI integration, and cloud migration.
- Support the Solution and Principal Architect in pre-sales activities including technical assessments, proof-of-concept design, and effort estimation.
Cloud & Automation Implementation
- Design and implement cloud-native architectures on AWS, Azure, or GCP — including containerization (Kubernetes/Docker), serverless functions, and event-driven patterns.
- Implement intelligent automation components using workflow engines, RPA tools, or custom AI-driven pipelines.
Engineering Community & Mentoring
- Mentor senior engineers and developers — supporting technical upskilling on AI tools, cloud platforms, and modern engineering practices.
- Contribute to Jade's internal community of practice through knowledge sharing, documentation, and participation in architecture discussions.
QUALIFICATIONS
Education
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Information Technology, or a related technical field is required.
Experience
- 5–9 years of total experience in software engineering, with at least 2–3 years in a technical architecture, lead engineer, or tech lead role.
- Hands-on experience building and delivering enterprise-grade solutions across cloud, AI/ML, and application engineering.
- Experience working in client-facing delivery environments within IT services or consulting organizations is preferred.
Technical Skills
- Engineering Stack: Strong hands-on proficiency in .NET (C#, ASP.NET Core) and/or OpenSource stacks (Python, Java, Node.js). Experience across both stacks is a strong advantage.
- AI & GenAI: Practical exposure to Generative AI integration, LLM APIs (OpenAI, Azure OpenAI), LangChain, RAG patterns, or agentic workflow frameworks.
- Cloud: Hands-on experience with AWS, Azure, or GCP — microservices, containers (Docker/Kubernetes), serverless, and CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, Azure DevOps).
- Intelligent Automation: Exposure to RPA tools, workflow orchestration engines, or AI-driven automation platforms.
- Enterprise Platforms: Familiarity with Oracle, SAP, Salesforce, or ServiceNow is a plus.
- Cloud Certification (any level — AWS, Azure, or GCP) is a plus.
Soft Skills
- Strong technical communication — able to explain architecture decisions clearly to engineering teams and non-technical stakeholders.
- Delivery-focused and hands-on — willing to roll up sleeves and contribute to implementation alongside leading architectural decisions.
- Curious and self-motivated — proactively explores new AI tools, frameworks, and engineering patterns.
- Collaborative team player — works effectively in onshore-offshore delivery models across time zones.
