Introduction
Join Avanade's Global Integrated Center of Excellence (ICOE) as a hands?on AI Application Architect, helping design intelligent, agentic, cloud?native applications. You will apply advanced AI techniques to accelerate every phase of the delivery lifecycle - from analysis and design to build, test, deploy, and operate - driving transformation across complex enterprise landscapes.
Role Overview
As part of the Application & Infrastructure SME team within the ICOE, you will focus on modern application architecture while pioneering the use of agentic AI in real delivery scenarios. You will collaborate closely with Avanade Regions on both direct and indirect deals, supporting them during solutioning phases as well as during critical delivery phases. Whether modernizing legacy systems or building solutions from scratch, you will apply agentic AI to transform how projects are executed end?to?end.
This is a unique opportunity to influence Avanade's architecture direction, elevate engineering productivity, and lead high?impact initiatives across Azure, AWS, and GCP.
What You'll Do
Architect AI?powered applications using autonomous and semi?autonomous agentic frameworks.
Apply AI agents across all delivery phases: analysis, design, build, test, deploy, and operations.
Modernise legacy applications using agentic AI for discovery, transformation, and refactoring.
Define end?to?end architectures integrating traditional software, LLMs, vector stores, and orchestration.
Drive AI adoption within Avanade Regions, enabling AI?driven solution roadmaps.
Contribute to solution planning and design across multi?disciplinary and multi?cloud environments.
Develop accelerators, reference architectures, and reusable assets for agentic AI patterns.
Guide engineering, data, and DevOps teams on AI automation and pipeline integration.
Travel occasionally for high?value client engagements.
