Technical Solutions Lead Client Services & Platform SUMMARY A technically sharp and commercially curious Solution Architect with a strong foundation in enterprise technology design, AI integration, and hands-on software delivery. Comfortable bridging the gap between business needs and technical execution — designing practical, scalable solutions while staying close to the code. Brings experience across consulting, rapid prototyping, and multi-system architecture, with a genuine enthusiasm for the opportunities that generative AI and modern engineering practices unlock for clients and teams. PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE Solution Architecture & Technical Design Design and document end-to-end solution architectures aligned to business requirements, security, and scalability. Contribute to reference architectures and architectural patterns across project engagements. Evaluate and recommend technology stacks — including AI platforms and development tooling — with clear rationale. Support architecture reviews and ensure solutions align with enterprise standards and governance requirements. Engineering Delivery Work closely with engineering teams to translate architecture into working, production-quality systems. Apply modern engineering practices: clean code, CI/CD pipelines, testing strategies, and observability. Participate in code and design reviews, sharing architectural context and raising quality across the team. Comfortable getting hands-on — contributing code and debugging when it matters most. Rapid Prototyping & AI Innovation Lead proof-of-concept builds to de-risk architecture decisions and validate solution approaches quickly. Use AI-assisted development tools (coding copilots, LLM APIs, agent frameworks) to accelerate delivery and exploration. Translate prototype learnings into well-structured, production-ready architectures and delivery plans. Stay current with the fast-moving generative AI landscape and bring relevant ideas to client engagements. Consulting & Stakeholder Engagement Engage directly with business and technical stakeholders to understand requirements and shape practical solutions. Support workshops, solution design sessions, and technical discovery activities. Communicate architectural thinking clearly — adapting the level of detail for different audiences. Contribute to proposals, assessments, and solutioning work as part of client engagements.
