Principal AI Solutions Architect, Customer Success

What You’ll Do

• Advise, Influence & Drive Adoption
  • Lead discovery and strategy alignment – partner with internal advisors, solution consultants and customer stakeholders to identify AI use cases, assess feasibility and value, and translate business KPIs into actionable technical priorities.
  • Surface the real problem beneath the presenting symptom – use data, evaluation outputs, and systematic analysis to form precise hypotheses and direct where intervention has the most leverage.
  • Influence adoption through credibility – resolve blockers, uncertainties or scepticism with evidence and clearly articulated reasoning.
  • Translate data‑driven findings into executive‑ready narratives – present complex AI performance insights, business impact, and recommendations with clarity and confidence that influences C‑level decisions.
• Design and Architecture
  • Define reference architectures, integration patterns, and data flows for AI‑powered experience orchestration – adapting the approach iteratively as customer context and data reveal new priorities.
  • Lead process‑redesign workshops to create seamless, channel‑agnostic CX, facilitated with a consultative approach that builds customer ownership of the solution.
  • Ensure all designs comply with Genesys and customer security, privacy, and regulatory requirements (GDPR, PDPA, PCI, HIPAA where applicable).
• Prototype and Implementation
  • Deliver rapid POC and MVP implementations using Genesys Cloud AI Studio, CoPilot, Agentic Virtual Agent, and related product suites – moving from hypothesis to working prototype at pace, and adjusting direction when the evidence requires it.
  • Integrate Genesys AI components with customer CRM, ERP, and third‑party systems.
  • Establish implementation KPIs and analytics to measure model and journey performance from day one – not as an afterthought.
• AI Engineering & Outcome‑Oriented Delivery
  • Design and implement evaluation frameworks to measure AI solution quality in production: intent accuracy, retrieval groundedness, response relevance, agent goal completion, and policy adherence.
  • Build automated eval pipelines that enable rapid, systematic iteration across prompt variants, guardrail configurations, and model versions.
  • Architect agentic systems with precision: define agent topology, design tool schemas, and engineer orchestration logic.
  • Measure success through production adoption and demonstrable outcome improvement – using outcome data as the primary signal for next focus.
• Optimisation and Continuous Improvement
  • Define baseline metrics at engagement start and iterate relentlessly.
  • Evaluate solution performance against KPIs and refine designs based on data‑driven insights, changing direction quickly when the data signals change.
  • Collaborate with Customer Success and Professional Services teams to hand over production‑ready assets and roadmaps.
  • Codify field learnings into reusable frameworks, evaluation standards, and accelerators that scale capability beyond individual engagements.
• Governance, Ethics, and Enablement
  • Champion responsible AI design principles and apply guardrails to prevent bias or unsafe responses.
  • Adhere to Genesys ethical standards and compliance frameworks.
  • Mentor customer, partner, and internal teams to build long‑term AI maturity and self‑sufficiency – transferring expertise, not just delivering outcomes.
  • Feed well‑formed, evidence‑backed field signal to product and solution teams – precise enough to influence roadmap priorities directly.

What We’re Looking For

• Experience
  • Bachelor’s degree (Master’s preferred) in Computer Science, Information Technology, Data Science, or a related discipline.
  • 8–12 years of combined experience across AI implementation, CX/CCaaS platform consulting, or technical solution architecture – demonstrated through overlap and measurable customer impact.
  • Extensive on‑field experience implementing or supporting CX, CRM, or AI orchestration platforms (e.g., Genesys Cloud, Google CCAI, Salesforce, Microsoft, NICE CXone, AWS Connect, ServiceNow).
  • Hands‑on experience with agentic AI systems: building, evaluating, or operating LLM‑powered agents in production contexts.
  • Demonstrated experience with APIs, data pipelines, and modern cloud environments (AWS, Azure, GCP).
  • Track record of mentoring or developing technical peers and codifying expertise into approaches others can build on.
• Consultative & Customer‑Facing Skills
  • Proven autonomy inside complex enterprise accounts – leading discovery, shaping scope, managing stakeholder expectations, and building trust without hand‑holding.
  • Comfortable operating without a defined playbook – able to form and test hypotheses under ambiguity, pivot quickly when the data signals a change, and bring stakeholders along through the process.
  • Translates data‑driven findings into executive‑ready narratives: quantified outcomes, causal relationships, and clear next steps – not qualitative summaries.
  • Proven leadership in cross‑functional environments and complex enterprise contexts.
  • Product instinct: able to define success metrics, surface well‑formed requirements, and articulate the business case for technical decisions.
• Technical Skills
  • CX orchestration and workflow design across multiple platforms – focus on outcome over architecture elegance.
  • Conversational AI and Agentic Virtual Agent implementation across voice, chat, and messaging channels.
  • Knowledge engineering: retrieval system diagnosis, RAG pipeline design, semantic coverage analysis, and knowledge optimisation for AI consumption.
  • Agentic system design: tool schema authoring, multi‑agent topology, prompt engineering, and guardrail implementation for enterprise‑safe agent behaviour.
  • Applied data analysis: Python for evaluation scripting, log analysis, and integration development; SQL for operational data querying.
  • Deep working knowledge of one or more enterprise CCaaS or Agentic AI platforms – Genesys Cloud preferred.
  • Data and integration expertise: REST APIs, event‑driven architecture, JSON.
  • Cloud infrastructure familiarity: provisioning, access control, and cost management (AWS preferred).
  • Data governance, security compliance, and responsible AI design principles.
• Languages & Location
  • German and English fluency (other languages an advantage across the EMEA region).
