Job Overview
Plan A Technologies is looking for a
Solutions Architect with AI-Assisted Development Focus
. We are building an agentic AI development platform that embeds AI deeply into software delivery workflows — from design and coding to testing, review, and operations.

We are looking for a Solutions Architect with strong coding skills who can design, build, and evolve production-grade agentic AI systems. This role sits at the intersection of software architecture, AI-assisted development, and platform engineering.

This is not a research or data-science role. The focus is on real-world systems, developer productivity, and operational excellence.

Please note:
you must have at least 10+ years of experience as Solutions Architect to be considered for this role.

JOB RESPONSIBILITY
AI Platform & Provider Integration

Design and integrate AI solutions using major cloud AI providers such as OpenAI, Anthropic (Claude) Google (Gemini).
Architect provider-agnostic AI layers, including:
Model abstraction and routing
Fallback strategies
Multi-model orchestration
Evaluate new models and providers with a pragmatic, cost-aware mindset.

Agentic AI Architecture & Patterns
Design and implement agentic AI systems, including:

Single-agent and multi-agent architectures
Planner / executor / reviewer loops
Tool-calling and function-calling patterns
Event-driven and workflow-based agent orchestration
Define interaction patterns between AI agents, backend services, APIs, and human users.
Balance autonomy with control using guardrails and human-in-the-loop mechanisms.

AI-Assisted Development Enablement
Actively use AI to accelerate software development, including:

Code generation and refactoring
Test creation and validation
Documentation and architecture assistance
Define standards, patterns, and best practices for developers working with AI-assisted tools.
Partner with engineering teams to embed AI into daily development workflows.

Software Architecture & Hands-On Coding

Design scalable, secure, and observable systems that embed AI as a first-class architectural component.
Write and review production code (APIs, services, integrations) to validate architectural decisions.
Make pragmatic trade-offs between flexibility, maintainability, cost, and delivery speed.

Cost, Performance & Reliability

Monitor and optimize AI system usage, including:
Token and cost management
Latency and throughput
Model performance vs. cost trade-offs
Design architectural controls to prevent cost explosion in agentic systems.
Implement strategies for graceful degradation and safe failure modes.

AI Operations, Governance & Safety
Design guardrails against:

Prompt injection
Data leakage
Unintended agent behavior
Implement logging, tracing, and evaluation pipelines for AI-driven workflows.
Support safe rollout strategies, experimentation, and continuous improvement of AI systems.

Experience

BS in Computer Science, Software Engineering or equivalent practical experience
Strong background in software architecture and distributed systems
Hands-on coding experience (language-agnostic; backend experience required)
Practical experience integrating and operating LLM-based systems in production
Deep understanding of agentic AI concepts and patterns
Experience designing systems used by developers (internal platforms, APIs, tooling)
Strong communication skills to collaborate with engineering, product, and leadership teams
Excellent organizational, problem solver, and analytical abilities
Excellent verbal and written English communication skills
Initiative and drive to do great things

Nice to haves:

Experience with Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) and vector databases
Familiarity with LLM evaluation frameworks and quality metrics
Experience building internal developer platforms or AI enablement initiatives
Understanding of fine-tuning trade-offs and when model tuning is appropriate (not required)
Exposure to platform observability tools for AI systems

About The Company/Benefits
Plan A Technologies is an American software development and technology advisory firm that brings top-tier engineering talent to clients around the world. Our software engineers tackle custom product development projects, staff augmentation, major integrations and upgrades, and much more. The team is far more hands-on than the giant outsourcing shops, but still big enough to handle major enterprise clients.
