We move fast, stay close to the cutting edge, and care more about outcomes than optics.\n\nOur work spans the full data and AI lifecycle: Data Strategy & Advisory, Data Engineering, Analytics & Visualization, Generative AI & ML, and Cloud Migration & Modernization. All of it is delivered primarily on Databricks, with deep partnerships across AWS, Azure, and GCP. \n\nIn September 2026, Lovelytics became a CDW company. CDW completed its acquisition on September 25, 2026, bringing our team into its Data & Analytics Practice. Together, we can take customers from data strategy to production AI with a single partner across the full technology lifecycle. \n\nLovelytics now has 600+ people across the United States, Canada, Argentina, and Colombia, all working exclusively in data and AI. We’ve kept the technically excellent, low-ego culture that earned us a Best Places to Work recognition, a spot among Databricks’ top partners, and three appearances on the Inc. 5000.\n\nLovelytics is seeking a Generative AI Architect with hands-on experience delivering client-facing projects in the Generative AI domain, particularly on the Databricks platform. As part of our growing AI & GenAI practice, this role offers an exciting opportunity to design and deploy state-of-the-art solutions that combine language models, vector databases, and cutting-edge orchestration frameworks.\nWe’re looking for a GenAI Architect who's already taken GenAI from concept to production on Databricks. Joining our GenAI practice means you’ll architect, design, and deploy solutions that work in the real world: RAG pipelines, LLM orchestration, vector search, AI agents and the architecture decisions that make all of it scale. This isn't a research role, it's for practitioners who've worked with clients, understood their problem, and built something to solve it. If you're energized by the pace of this space and want to work alongside people who take data and AI seriously, we'd love to talk.\nNote: This position is not eligible for work sponsorship at this time.\nPrimary Responsibilities:\nOwn end-to-end architecture and technical strategy for complex GenAI and Agentic AI solutions on the Databricks Data Intelligence Platform, from discovery through production.\n\nServe as the senior technical advisor to client stakeholders, translating business problems into scalable AI architectures and implementation roadmaps.\n\nDesign solutions across Agentic AI, Compound AI, LLMs, evaluation, optimization, governance, observability, and production AI engineering using relevant Databricks capabilities.\n\nProvide technical leadership across multiple project teams, ensuring architectural quality, engineering standards, security, scalability, Unity Catalog governance, and production readiness.\n\nGuide and mentor Senior, Lead and Principal GenAI engineers and consultants, strengthening both GenAI and Databricks technical capabilities across the practice.\n\nLead technical discovery, estimation, architecture, proposals, demos, and pre-sales activities for strategic Databricks GenAI opportunities.\n\nDevelop reusable Databricks reference architectures, accelerators, patterns, and best practices for enterprise GenAI and Agentic AI implementations.\n\nStay current on emerging Databricks AI capabilities and broader GenAI technologies, translating them into practical client solutions.\n\nBuild strong client relationships, identify expansion opportunities, and help grow large, durable Databricks AI accounts.\n\nContribute to Databricks and GenAI thought leadership through workshops, blogs, conference sessions, demos, and internal enablement.\n\nOur Ideal Candidate's Skills and Experiences:\nB.S. in Computer Science or equivalent technical field.\n\n10+ years of technology experience, including significant experience in data, ML, AI, or cloud architecture.\n\n2-3 years of meaningful hands-on GenAI/LLM experience preferred, with demonstrated production implementations.\n\nProven experience as a Solution Architect, AI Architect, Lead Engineer, or equivalent technical leadership role.\n\nDemonstrated experience leading complex client engagements and multiple technical workstreams.\n\nPrior consulting or professional services experience strongly preferred.\n\nExperience mentoring and technically leading teams required. Formal people-management experience is valuable but not required\n\nDeep hands-on experience designing and delivering production GenAI and Agentic AI solutions.\n\nStrong understanding of LLMs, AI agents, agent orchestration, tool use, Compound AI systems, evaluation, prompt optimization, and LLMOps.\n\nStrong Databricks experience, including Mosaic AI capabilities, Model Serving, MLflow, Unity Catalog, Databricks Apps, Vector Search, and Lakehouse architecture.\n\nAbility to design secure, scalable, governed enterprise AI architectures integrating structured and unstructured data.\n\nStrong Python and software engineering fundamentals, including APIs, distributed systems, CI/CD, testing, and production deployment patterns.\n\nExperience with model evaluation, observability, guardrails, performance optimization, and cost management.\n\nWorking knowledge of classical ML and how GenAI, ML, data engineering, and analytics fit into broader AI solutions.\n\nStrong client-facing consulting and executive communication skills.\n\nNice-to-Have Skills and Experiences:\nAdvanced Databricks certifications and strong familiarity with the broader Databricks Data Intelligence Platform.\n\nExperience with DSPy, GEPA, automated prompt optimization, fine-tuning, synthetic data generation, and advanced evaluation techniques.\n\nExperience building multi-agent systems, MCP-based integrations, tool-calling architectures, and human-in-the-loop workflows.\n\nFamiliarity with multiple foundation model providers and model-selection strategies across proprietary and open-source models.\n\nExperience with cloud platforms such as Azure, AWS, or GCP, particularly enterprise security, networking, and identity integration.\n\nExperience with traditional ML, MLOps, feature engineering, and predictive modeling in addition to GenAI.\n\nFamiliarity with industry-specific AI patterns in Financial Services, Healthcare, Manufacturing, Energy, Retail, Telecom, or other enterprise sectors.\n\nExperience managing or mentoring senior technical resources such as Principals, Leads, and Engineers.\n\nExperience participating in pre-sales, RFPs, proposals, solution estimation, and executive presentations.\n\nPrevious experience building or scaling an AI/GenAI practice, Center of Excellence, or technical community.\n\nWhat We Promise You:\nMeaningful, cutting-edge projects in Generative AI with clients across industries—from Fortune 100 firms to disruptive startups.\n\nRapid learning and mentorship opportunities with AI/GenAI thought leaders and practitioners.\n\nA culture of experimentation, innovation, and continuous improvement.\n\nOpportunity to be a conference speaker, blogger, writer. \n\nA diverse, inclusive team and one of the best GenAI teams, where your voice, ideas contributions are highly valued.\n\nThe base salary range for this position for candidates based in the US is $160,000-210,000 per year.
