AI Architect (ongoing)
You know the moment when the demo works, but production will not? That is where this role lives.
At Brillian, we build AI solutions in a consulting environment. The work is client-facing and delivery-focused. We help teams make
the right technical calls early and then implement them in a way that is secure, observable, and maintainable.
We are continuously looking to meet AI Architects who can lead technical direction and still work hands-on with code when needed.
We do not always have a matching project starting immediately, but when the fit is right, we stay in close contact and move
quickly when something clicks!
WHAT OUR PROJECTS TYPICALLY LOOK LIKE
Most projects are about the system, not a single model choice. You will design the architecture and you will also build the
critical parts that set the standard for the team.
Depending on the client and the stage, you might:
Turn an unclear goal into a technical approach that can be delivered and operated
Define the first version of the architecture and implement reference code that proves the direction
Build cloud foundations with sane defaults for security, logging, monitoring, and cost controls
Set patterns for integrations, APIs, and data flows so the solution fits the client environment
Build LLM and ML components when they are the right tool, such as retrieval-based search, extraction, and workflow automation
Define evaluation and monitoring so quality, latency, and cost are visible and can be improved
Pair with engineers to unblock delivery and review critical code paths
Support early phases like scoping, feasibility checks, and clear technical communication to stakeholders
WHAT WE VALUE
You make decisions and you can explain them clearly
You design for operability from day one, including security, monitoring, and cost
You stay pragmatic and you prefer patterns teams can own
You are comfortable switching between client discussions and building
You take responsibility for outcomes, not only architecture descriptions
And yes, practically speaking, experience in these areas helps a lot:
Cloud architecture on AWS, GCP, or Azure, including IAM, networking, and containers
DevOps practices such as IaC, CI/CD, monitoring, and incident readiness
Strong software engineering habits and comfort working in code, typically Python and often also TypeScript
Data foundations such as pipelines, transformations, quality checks, and access boundaries
Practical experience building LLM-powered features, especially retrieval, evaluation, and observability
Bonus: you have built reusable templates, starter kits, or reference architectures that help teams deliver faster with consistent
quality.
WHAT WE OFFER
Consulting work with real ownership and a lot of technical influence
A team that values clarity, quality, and delivery that holds up in production
Hybrid setup from Helsinki or Tampere, with flexibility to focus when it matters
Salary typically €6,000 to €8,000 per month, depending on experience and impact
Opportunity for equity for all new Brillians!
WHAT NEXT?
Not sure if you tick every box? That’s okay. We value deep thinking and technical curiosity more than buzzword coverage.
