Customer travel when the work requires it.\n\nThe role\nAn Intelligence Architect enters a customer environment with an unfinished question and leaves behind a working, measurable system.\nThis is a hands-on engineering role at the boundary of product, operations and customer delivery. You will learn the domain, inspect the existing systems and data, decide what should be built, and write the code that puts it into production.\nWhat you will own\nInterview and shadow the people doing the work, then map the real workflow, including hand-offs, exceptions and workarounds.\nUnderstand the customer's application stack, APIs, data, identity model, security constraints and deployment environment.\nTurn business goals into a technical scope, system design, delivery plan and measures of success.\nBuild across the stack: AI workflows, data pipelines, integrations, backend services and the interfaces people use.\nChoose the simplest reliable approach. The answer may combine agents, retrieval, rules and conventional software.\nCreate evals from representative cases, define quality and failure metrics, inspect traces, red-team the system and set launch thresholds.\nMake practical trade-offs across accuracy, latency, cost, privacy, security and speed.\nTake prototypes into production with tests, monitoring, access controls, documentation and a plan for failure and recovery.\nWork beside customer teams during rollout and improve the system until it becomes part of the workflow.\nTurn what works into reusable components, evaluation sets and playbooks for future Celeco deployments.\n\nYou will probably thrive here if\nYou have at least one year of professional software or product engineering experience.\nYou have shipped a real system used by other people and can explain what you owned, what broke and what you changed.\nYou are strong in Python or TypeScript and comfortable moving across unfamiliar codebases, APIs, databases and cloud services.\nYou have built with language or multimodal models and understand prompting, structured outputs, retrieval, tool use and model failure modes.\nYou use Cursor, Codex, Claude Code or similar tools as part of your engineering workflow, while still reviewing, testing and understanding the code you ship.\nYou can create an evaluation set, choose useful quality metrics and improve a system through error analysis instead of prompt guesswork.\nYou can speak with an operator, an engineering team and a senior leader without losing the thread of the problem.\nYou work well with incomplete requirements, write clearly and surface risks early.\nYou care about whether people use what you build and whether it changes a business outcome.\nYou can commit full-time and travel to customer sites when discovery or rollout is better done in person.\nExperience with cloud deployment, containers, CI/CD, observability, enterprise integrations, authentication or security is useful. We do not expect one person to arrive knowing every framework, cloud or industry.\n\nWhat you will get\nDirect ownership of live customer problems from discovery through production.\nClose collaboration with Celeco's founders and customer leadership teams.\nExposure to different industries, operating models and technical environments.\nThe freedom to choose the technical approach and the responsibility to prove that it works.\nA role in defining Celeco's engineering methods, reusable systems and technical culture while the company is early.\nA remote-first setup, with the option to work together in Bengaluru.\n\nIf the work sounds like you but your background is unconventional, apply. We care more about what you have built, how you think and how quickly you learn than pedigree.\nSkills\nArtificial Intelligence (AI), Agentic AI, Multi-agent Systems, AI Agents, Design thinking, Data Analytics, Client Servicing","description_format":"text","description_chars":4175,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":1,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"India","iso":"IN","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Artificial Intelligence"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-09-25T14:00:00Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":11,"band":"cold","label":"Long shot","p_open":0.4,"p_active":0.628,"p_room":0.45,"age_days":47,"expected_fill_days":28,"reasons":["seen:47","win:tail"],"computed_at":"2026-10-27T05:46:45Z"},"pay":{"stated_usd_annual":14675,"is_top_pay":false},"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/celeco-labs-intelligence-architect-forward-deployed-ai-engineer","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/celeco-labs-intelligence-architect-forward-deployed-ai-engineer.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-27T19:36:35Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":10278,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-28T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":3801030},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=3801030"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fceleco-labs-intelligence-architect-forward-deployed-ai-engineer"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fceleco-labs-intelligence-architect-forward-deployed-ai-engineer"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fceleco-labs-intelligence-architect-forward-deployed-ai-engineer"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/celeco-labs-intelligence-architect-forward-deployed-ai-engineer\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fceleco-labs-intelligence-architect-forward-deployed-ai-engineer"}]}
