Agentic AI Architect - Intelligence Engineering Monterrey

Who You’ll Work WithAt Slalom, we co-create modern technology and software products with clients who are ready to accelerate their digital product development. We imagine how things can be made better, then set out to realize what’s possible — driving innovation with quality, resilience, and purpose. By blending design, product engineering, analytics, and automation, we build the custom-built software and data products of tomorrow.
As a Senior Architect or Architect in Intelligence Engineering, you’ll design and deliver innovative AI/ML and agentic AI solutions as part of intelligent products and automating / re-envisioning human workflows on Amazon Web Services, Azure, and Google Cloud. This includes architecting multi-agent systems, LLM-powered autonomous workflows, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) pipelines, and enterprise-grade AI governance frameworks using cutting-edge orchestration frameworks, tool-use protocols, and cloud-native AI services. You’ll help clients move from isolated proofs of concept to secure, scalable, observable systems that create real business value, while helping craft projects in their initial phases and delivering them with a team.
What You’ll DoProvide thought leadership on AI/ML, Generative AI, and Agentic AI internally and with clients, while contributing to a culture of collaboration, learning, and curiosityDesign end-to-end agentic AI architectures including planning loops, memory management, tool integration, and agent coordination patternsArchitect multi-agent orchestration systems using frameworks such asStrands Agents SDK,OpenAI Agents SDK, Google ADK, LangGraphor similar for autonomous reasoning, decision-making, and task executionDesign and implement Model Context Protocol (MCP) server integrations for tool use, data access, and cross-system interoperability with enterprise systemsBuild advanced retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) systems including vector databases, embedding strategies, chunking optimization, hybrid search, re-ranking, and multi-source data synthesisDesign and deliver AI and ML solutions across AWS, Azure, and GCP, using the right mix combination of cloud-native data services, ML tooling, LLM platforms, and software engineering practicesBuild in Python and, where useful, other languages to deliver machine learning systems, APIs, evaluation harnesses, retrieval pipelines, agent workflows, and production servicesRecommend and implement architecture for model and agent pipelines, CI/CD, testing, deployment, observability, andMLOps/LLMOpsat scaleImplement evaluation frameworks (e.g., RAGAS, DeepEval, LangSmith) to measure task success rates, tool-call accuracy, and reasoning integrity for GenAI systemsBuild guardrails for safety, compliance, and performance monitoring including human-in-the-loop (HITL) approval workflows, escalation policies, and sandbox isolationDefine AI governance frameworks including model risk management, responsible AI practices, regulatory compliance, and authorization boundaries for autonomous decision-makingExplain model and system behavior to both technical and non-technical audiences, including leading deep technical presentations, workshops, and architecture conversationsCollaborate with Product Owners to apply Slalom’s agile process and lead the initiation, delivery, and transition of projects in a client-facing roleLead and mentor engineers and machine learning practitioners. Lead smaller projects (3 to 5 people) as the technical lead from project initiation to deliveryBuild trusted relationships with customers and collaborate across Slalom teams to share learnings and strengthen the broader Intelligence Engineering practiceWill be delivery-focused approximately 85–95% of the timeWillingness to travel up to 50%, at peak times
We are looking for candidates who are interested in working in a hybrid environment as we build the foundation and grow our team in Mexico. We offer a flexible working environment to balance the need to work independently, with days that may require in-person collaboration at our office.
