Role Overview
Shae Group is hiring a senior Technical Solutions Architect / Tech Lead to drive architecture, technical direction, and delivery alignment for our clinical AI, conversational AI, and digital twin platform roadmap.
This role is AI-native: every Tech Lead at Shae must have hands-on AI engineering experience, especially in LLM prompt engineering and agentic/multi-agent systems shipped to production. We are not looking for candidates whose “AI experience” is limited to basic prompting or a single chatbot release.
You will act as the north star for technical execution: receiving product vision from leadership, translating it into technical architecture and documentation, keeping multiple teams aligned (including agency teams), and ensuring delivery stays on-track through strong communication, structured thinking, and rigorous quality standards.
What You’ll Own
1) AI Engineering Leadership (Non-Negotiable)
- Lead delivery of LLM-driven, conversational AI systems (not rule-based chatbots)
- Build and ship production-grade capabilities such as:
- Function calling / tool use / actions from conversation
- Multi-agent / agentic workflows and orchestration
- Prompt design patterns, testing, and evaluation approaches
- Ensure systems are production-hardened with:
- Robust testing and regression protection
- Safety/guardrails and failure handling
- Monitoring and performance controls
Preference weighting (per hiring manager):
- Strongly prefer candidates with deep LLM prompt engineering experience (~70%)
- Fine-tuning experience is valuable but secondary (~30%); a few real projects can be sufficient
Bonus “brownie points”:
- Experience deploying AI models/LLMs on the edge (edge inference / on-device / near-device constraints)
2) Platform Architecture & Cloud Systems (High-Level, Not Just App-Level)
- Own architectural thinking from the top down:
- Cloud services, system boundaries, data flows, security controls
- Design scalable foundations for:
- Multi-tenant systems
- White-label / configuration-driven product variants
- Secure data ingestion pipelines (including wearables → processing → insights)
- Observability (logs, metrics, tracing), incident readiness, reliability standards
- Define and enforce quality standards:
- CI/CD expectations, linting, automated tests
- “Definition of Done” for production readiness
3) Technical Direction, Documentation, and Alignment
- Convert vision into execution via strong written and visual artifacts:
- Architecture diagrams
- ADRs (Architecture Decision Records)
- Technical implementation plans and sequencing
- Use AI tools (e.g., GPT) to accelerate:
- Documentation drafting
- Meeting note synthesis → action items
- Ticket scaffolding and technical breakdowns
Candidates who refuse to use AI tooling for productivity are not a fit for this role.
4) Delivery Leadership Across Multiple Teams
- Act as the technical “brain” partnering closely with a Project Manager (PM):
- PM handles admin/logistics; you ensure technical correctness + vision alignment
- Drive team alignment through:
- Tech lead presence in team syncs ~3x/week
- On-demand calls with developers to unblock, clarify, and correct course
- Ensure the right work is assigned to the right people:
- Identify skill gaps, resourcing risks, or delivery threats early
- Propose solutions, escalate for approval, and help roll changes out cleanly
- Maintain delivery integrity across internal and agency teams:
- Prevent drift from original vision
- Ensure code is in the correct repo/codebase and meets quality expectations
What Success Looks Like
- Teams ship complex AI features that work reliably in production (not prototypes)
- Architecture is documented clearly and used consistently by developers
- Developers and PMs leave interactions with you feeling clear, calm, and confident
- Projects stay aligned to vision, with minimal drift across distributed teams
- Risks are surfaced early with structured options and clear recommendations
Delivery quality is high: CI/CD healthy, testing solid, releases controlled and safe
