As an Agentic AI & Commerce Architect, you will lead the end-to-end technical design and delivery of production-grade agentic commerce systems for global enterprise clients. You are responsible for defining the overall system architecture, selecting and governing AI/ML and platform technologies, and ensuring solutions are scalable, secure, and embedded into live enterprise commerce environments. You will partner closely with development, DevOps, data engineering, and client teams to translate agentic commerce strategy into executable, production-ready architecture.
This is a high-impact at the intersection of two rapidly converging disciplines — enterprise commerce and agentic AI. The primary hiring dimension is agentic AI architecture at enterprise scale; commerce depth is strongly preferred, and candidates with strong AI credentials and adjacent platform experience will be considered.
Design and document multi-agent architecture blueprints, agentic orchestration patterns, knowledge and semantic layer blueprints, AI governance blueprints, and AgentOps/LLMOps architecture
Design the knowledge architecture underpinning agent intelligence: embeddings pipelines, vector retrieval, and semantic search — structured around commerce-specific intent, product relationships, and category hierarchies
Architect the integration layer connecting agentic systems to enterprise commerce stacks (OMS, PIM, DAM, CRM, payments, pricing, fulfilment) via API gateways, event buses, and emerging agentic protocols (MCP, A2A, ACP, UCP)
Lead build vs. buy decisions across LLM platforms, orchestration frameworks, vector stores, and agentic workbenches; design multi-model routing strategies to avoid single-provider lock-in
Embed AI governance, observability, and guardrail design as first-class architectural concerns — audit logging, human-in-the-loop escalation, adversarial testing, and compliance controls — not retrofitted after deployment
Commerce Platform Leadership
Lead large-scale agentic commerce implementations across Salesforce Commerce Cloud, Adobe Commerce, SAP Commerce, and composable/MACH stacks — embedding agentic AI into live production environments
Lead architecture workshops with senior client stakeholders, presenting clear options with defined trade-offs, timelines, and business outcomes
Implementation & Delivery
Provide architectural leadership across distributed, multidisciplinary delivery teams spanning AI, backend, data, cloud, and DevOps
Define and oversee the AgentOps/LLMOps framework: establishing standards for production monitoring, tracing, model evaluation, and continuous improvement across delivery teams
Practice & Market Development
4+ years enterprise commerce delivery on one or more of: Salesforce Commerce Cloud, Adobe Commerce, SAP Commerce, or composable/MACH stacks — or equivalent depth in adjacent enterprise platform delivery with a clear trajectory into commerce
Proven experience designing LLM-based systems: RAG, tool-calling, multi-agent orchestration, reasoning workflows
Commerce stack integration: OMS, PIM, DAM, CRM, payments, and fulfilment systems
Proficiency in Python, agent frameworks, vector databases, APIs/microservices, distributed systems
