About the role

Senior Enterprise AI Architect to serve as long-term technical partner to strategic Fortune 500 customers, owning technical relationship, architecture, feasibility, and delivery involvement from early conversations through successful delivery.

Responsibilities

  • Own the strategic technical relationship. Serve as the primary technical counterpart for strategic accounts, building trust with CIO/CTO-level leaders, enterprise architects, and business executives.
  • Own architecture, feasibility, prototypes, and technical SOW quality. Lead joint solution architecture with customer teams, applying Distyl’s platform and technical primitives to real enterprise systems. Use prototypes and demos to validate key assumptions where needed, and own the technical content of the SOW, including integrations, data access, deployment model, dependencies, assumptions, and risks.
  • Qualify opportunities and shape technically credible solutions. Assess whether opportunities are well-suited for AI, evaluate data, systems, security, integration, and organizational constraints, and make the call on technical feasibility before Distyl commits to scope.
  • Turn customer patterns into reusable assets and product feedback. Translate recurring needs, architecture patterns, security constraints, and deployment learnings into reusable technical assets and concrete feedback that influences Distyl’s platform, product, and engineering roadmap.
  • Carry the technical thread from first conversation through successful delivery. Stay engaged through architecture reviews, executive steering, major tradeoffs, risk escalations, and expansion opportunities, while empowering the delivery lead to own execution.

Qualifications

  • 8+ years of relevant experience across engineering, enterprise architecture, forward-deployed engineering, solutions architecture, or similar roles, with substantial customer-facing responsibility.
  • Hands-on production delivery experience with Enterprise-grade Agentic AI/ML systems; can reason about implementation tradeoffs, reliability, integration, scale, security, and operating constraints.
  • Ability to operate as a senior technical advisor to executives; build trust, shape ambiguous problems, influence decisions, and handle high-stakes technical conversations.
  • Proven ownership of complex enterprise solution architecture and scope, including writing technical SOW content and aligning teams around what is buildable.
  • Ability to work effectively with FDE / Delivery / Product & Strategy teams; coordinating at the right time and maintaining continuity.
  • Strong working knowledge of APIs, integrations, cloud and enterprise architecture, data flows, security considerations, and modern AI systems; coding fluency to prototype and engage with engineers.
  • Deep domain expertise in enterprise areas such as customer support, voice, MarTech, Cybersecurity, IAM, or Document processing.
  • Willingness to travel 25% and ability to work from New York or San Francisco office Tuesday–Thursday.
