Principal Architect with Deep AI & Agentic Systems – Detailed JD

Principal Architect with deep AI and agentic systems expertise to design and deliver production-grade, server-hosted AI solutions. This role requires a balance of architecture leadership and hands-on engineering, with a strong focus on LLM orchestration, memory management, advanced retrieval (RAG), and enterprise-grade agent workflows.

The ideal candidate has proven experience building scalable agentic systems in enterprise environments, not just experimental or IDE-based solutions, and can design systems that integrate business context, code intelligence, and human-in-the-loop workflows.

 

Must-Have Skills

Recruiters should screen strongly for the following:

1) Agentic AI / LLM Systems

• Proven experience building agentic systems that run-in server environments
• Experience with multi-step orchestration, tool calling, and workflow design
• Hands-on implementation experience — not just conceptual AI knowledge

2) Memory and Context Management

• Experience designing short-term and long-term memory for AI systems
• Understanding of how to manage context across sessions, tasks, and workflows
• Familiarity with state handling, summarization, persistence, and context optimization

3) Advanced Retrieval / RAG

• Strong experience with advanced RAG architectures
• Hands-on work with:
• Vector databases
• Graph databases
• Embeddings and retrieval design
• Experience with hybrid retrieval patterns and building richer context for AI systems

4) Code Intelligence / Technical Analysis

• Experience ingesting source code and documents into AI/retrieval workflows
• Ability to support:
• impact analysis
• dependency mapping
• technical analysis
• code relationship/call graph understanding
• Experience with AST parsing using tools such as Tree-sitter or similar

5) Programming / Engineering Depth

• Strong hands-on experience in:
• Python or Java
• Agentic Platforms, RAG/GraphDB, LLMs
• Caching – near and distributed (Redis ,Apache Ignite etc)
• API Token management optimization techniques is a plus
• Experience with SOLR, Lucene or equivalent is a plus
• AWS Cloud Experience is a plus

 

• Enough engineering depth to contribute meaningfully to implementation and technical design

6) Frameworks / Platforms

Experience with one or more of the following is important:

• LangGraph
• LangChain
• GitHub Copilot SDK or similar
• CLI-based/server-hosted execution models
• Managed cloud AI platforms such as Bedrock or similar offerings
