[Hiring] AI Solutions Architect @Indigo Beam

Role Description

We are looking for a hands-on AI Solutions Architect to design, build, deploy, and operate internal AI solutions on our cloud platform. The role combines technical delivery (~50%) and business engagement (~50%). You will work directly with business leaders and operational teams to identify high-value AI opportunities, build production-ready solutions, and establish scalable architecture, governance, and cost controls. This is a delivery-focused role, not a research role. Success means AI systems that are deployed, adopted, and delivering measurable business value.

Key Responsibilities

• Design and build AI agents, RAG solutions, automation workflows, and structured-data assistants.
• Own the AI architecture, from discovery through production and ongoing operations.
• Build retrieval systems including document ingestion, chunking, indexing, search, and retrieval evaluation.
• Integrate AI with ERP, document management, quality systems, Microsoft 365, and other enterprise platforms.
• Own AI cost management — estimate, monitor, optimise, and report usage and spend.
• Partner with IT on security, identity, access, networking, secrets, and data residency.
• Support Microsoft 365 Copilot and Copilot Studio deployment, governance, and adoption.
• Run business discovery sessions and translate business problems into realistic, production-ready AI use cases.
• Present solutions to executives, subject matter experts, and operational users.
• Establish reusable architecture patterns, standards, and governance.
• Mentor and enable other technical staff as the AI capability grows.

Core Technical Skills

• Strong working depth expected in Azure AI Foundry or equivalent cloud AI platform.
• AI agents, tool/function calling and evaluation.
• LLMs: OpenAI, Anthropic, Google.
• Prompt engineering and AI failure handling.
• RAG, vector/hybrid search, embedding and retrieval evaluation.
• Azure AI Search or equivalent.
• Working knowledge of Microsoft 365 Copilot & Copilot Studio.
• Power Automate, Power Apps, SharePoint & Microsoft Graph.
• Python & SQL.
• REST APIs, serverless functions, webhooks and workflow orchestration.
• OCR/document extraction, e.g. Azure Document Intelligence.
• Databricks, Microsoft Fabric, Snowflake or similar.
• Cloud security fundamentals: RBAC, managed identity, secrets and network isolation.
• AI-assisted development tools such as Claude Code, GitHub Copilot or Cursor.

Business Skills

• Strong stakeholder management from C-suite to frontline operations.
• Able to turn vague AI interest into well-scoped business problems.
• Comfortable challenging unrealistic requirements and saying no where appropriate.
• Strong presentation, demonstration and communication skills.
• Able to build build-vs-buy cases using real business and cost data.
• Comfortable managing SME validation and accuracy reviews.
• Able to manage projects independently from discovery to production.
• Strong architecture and executive-level documentation skills.

Required Experience

• 5+ years in a technical business role such as solutions architecture, systems integration, business analysis or process automation.
• At least one AI/automation solution deployed to production and still in use.
• Strong experience in at least one major cloud platform.
• Demonstrated experience with prompt engineering and AI agents.
• Able to read, direct and debug code.
• Proven experience working directly with business stakeholders.

Preferred Experience / Skills

• Experience building a new AI/technology capability from the ground up.
• Cloud cost management experience.
• Operations, supply chain or engineering background.
• Experience with production AI governance and compliance.

• Full-Time, Remote position based in Mexico.
