 Senior Principal Software Architect - AI Applications

Job Description

Your impact:
  • As Senior Principal Software Architect AI Applications, you will be a deeply hands-on technical leader and architectural partner responsible for shaping how OpenText builds AI-powered products and solutions. This role is for a builder who stays close to code, guides teams through real design decisions, and helps translate emerging AI capabilities into scalable, reliable systems.
  • You will work directly with architects and development teams to design, review, and improve AI solutions, including RAG-based applications, agentic workflows, and multi-agent orchestration. You are expected to prototype, create POCs and starter implementations, and help teams adopt strong end-to-end AI development practices, from prompt design and evaluation to observability and system tuning.
  • This role requires strong enterprise experience, technical credibility, and the ability to influence without direct authority.

 

What the role offers:

  • Designing and evolving AI solutions and products using modern RAG and agentic architectures
  • Building and reviewing agent-based systems, including orchestration, tool use, and agent-to-agent interactions
  • Creating hands-on prototypes, POCs, and reference implementations to guide development teams
  • Advising teams on prompt design, evaluation strategies, and observability patterns
  • Identifying gaps in existing AI solutions and helping teams refactor or improve them
  • Working closely with architects and developers to translate AI patterns into production-ready designs
  • Staying current with AI trends, tools, and frameworks and applying them pragmatically
  • Explaining complex architectural decisions clearly to technical and non-technical audiences

 

What you need to succeed:

  • 15+ years of software engineering experience, including senior architect or principal-level roles
  • Proven, hands-on experience building enterprise AI solutions end to end
  • Strong understanding of the full AI lifecycle, including development, prompt management, evaluation, observability, and continuous iteration
  • Deep hands-on experience with LangGraph and Google ADK, with awareness of emerging agentic frameworks and orchestration approaches
  • Familiarity with agent builders and studio-style solutions emerging in the market
  • Strong working knowledge of cloud AI platforms, with Google Vertex AI experience a significant plus
  • Demonstrated ability to use AI-powered code assistants and modern developer tools to accelerate prototyping and solution development
  • Practical experience designing modern RAG pipelines and agentic architectures
  • Strong coding experience, primarily in Python, with working knowledge of JavaScript/TypeScript and Java
  • Ability to guide and influence multiple teams through architectural leadership without direct authority
  • Curious, hands-on, and motivated by learning, experimentation, and explaining complex ideas clearly
  • Bachelors or Masters degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field
