AI Solutions Architect (Pre-Sales)

London | Hybrid | Permanent | £90,000-£110,000

I'm working with a global organisation investing heavily in its AI capability and looking for an AI Solution Architect to play a key role in shaping what comes next.

The role sits at the intersection of AI architecture, hands-on technical delivery and advisory. You'll help define how AI solutions should be designed and built, guide engineers through delivery, and work directly with senior stakeholders on complex business problems.

There is also a genuine client-facing element, so this would particularly suit someone who enjoys combining deep technical expertise with consulting, solutioning and pre-sales.

The Role

You'll take ownership of end-to-end architecture across a growing portfolio of AI initiatives, covering both internal transformation and external solutions.

You'll be responsible for:

Translating business problems into practical AI architectures and technical solutions
Owning solution design from initial requirements through to delivery
Architecting agentic AI systems using model APIs, orchestration frameworks, RAG and retrieval patterns
Making informed decisions between different models, platforms, low-code solutions and custom development
Designing integrations, APIs, data pipelines and the underlying data architecture required by AI applications
Working extensively across Microsoft technologies including Copilot Studio, Power Platform, Azure and Microsoft 365
Establishing reusable architectural patterns and engineering standards
Considering security, governance, performance, resilience, data residency and cost throughout solution design
Providing technical direction and mentorship to engineers
Supporting client conversations, technical discovery, proposals and pre-sales activity
Presenting complex technical concepts credibly to both technical and non-technical stakeholder

About You

I'm interested in speaking with people from Solution Architecture, AI Engineering, Solutions Engineering, Forward Deployed Engineering or technical consulting backgrounds.
You'll ideally bring strong experience across several of the following:
AI / LLM solution architecture
Agentic AI systems
RAG and retrieval architectures
Model APIs and orchestration frameworks
Microsoft Copilot Studio
Power Platform / Power Automate / Dataverse
Azure and Microsoft 365
Python and/or TypeScript
APIs, integrations and data architecture
AI governance, security and cost optimisation
Technical consulting, stakeholder management or pre-sales

Why Consider This Role?

This an opportunity to join at an unusually interesting point in the organisation's AI journey.

Rather than inheriting a mature function and maintaining somebody else's architecture, you'll have significant influence over how the capability develops - including technology choices, engineering standards, delivery approach and future team direction.

You'll also get exposure to both internal AI transformation and external advisory work, giving the role considerably more breadth than a standard internal Solution Architect position.

If you're currently working across AI architecture, solutions engineering, FDE or technical consulting and want a role where you can genuinely help build the capability rather than simply operate within it, I'd be interested in speaking with you ASAP.
