Job description

Ascendix Technologies is scaling its AI delivery capability and looking for a senior-level AI Architect who can lead real-world AI implementations across client delivery, solution architecture, and pre-sales . We are actively investing in AI engineering capabilities and building a long-term AI practice designed around practical, production-ready delivery. If you thrive in high-ownership environments, move fast, and enjoy solving complex engineering problems with AI at the center, this role is for you. What We're Looking For AI Engineering & Delivery (Products and with AI) · Building AI into products: Hands-on experience integrating LLMs into real applications; experience with RAG, AI agents, copilots, or AI workflow orchestration. · Building products with AI: You already use AI in your development workflow (LLM-assisted coding, prompt engineering, AI-based testing / code review, automation) and can point to examples where this has accelerated delivery. Architecture & Backend Engineering · Strong backend engineering and architecture experience. We're not tied to a specific language or framework. What matters is that you can architect robust, scalable backend systems and that you understand why certain decisions matter. · Proven experience shipping production systems end-to-end. Not just designed it, not just prototyped it. You've been responsible for something real that runs in production and that clients depend on. · Infrastructure and scalability awareness. Client-Facing & Communication · Strong communication and client-facing skills, with the ability to present and explain complex solutions to both technical and non-technical stakeholders, including executives. · Solid English proficiency suitable for executive-facing conversations. Ways of Working · Ability to operate with high ownership and minimal handholding. · Works effectively within a delivery team, including engineers, consultants, and BAs, rather than as a solo contributor. Nice to Have: · Consulting or pre-sales experience (POC scoping, proposal shaping, estimation). · Full-stack development background. · Salesforce or CRM ecosystem exposure. · Experience in real estate or financial services domains. What You'll Do: Architect & Deliver AI-First Solutions: · Design and build production-grade AI-powered applications. · Implement RAG pipelines, AI copilots, LLM integrations, and agentic workflows. · Own architecture decisions across backend, infrastructure, scalability, and deployment. · Lead technical delivery for client-facing AI initiatives. Use AI to Accelerate Engineering: We expect AI to be part of your development workflow. You should already be using: · LLM-assisted coding · AI-powered development tools · Prompt engineering · AI-based testing and code review · Intelligent automation workflows Support Pre-Sales & Client Conversations · Join discovery and solutioning calls with prospects. · Translate business problems into realistic technical solutions. · Provide architecture direction and delivery estimates. · Communicate clearly with both technical and non-technical stakeholders. Help Shape the AI Practice · Define reusable AI architecture patterns. · Improve AI delivery standards and engineering workflows. · Influence tooling, implementation approaches, and best practices. · Work directly with senior architects and leadership/C-level. · Mentor engineers and team leads on AI delivery practices. · Lead and operate small delivery teams under compressed timelines.
