AI Architect

Ascendix · Remote · Kraków

Job description

Ascendix Technologies is scaling its AI delivery capability and looking for a senior-level AI Architect who can lead real-world AI implementations across client delivery, solution architecture, and pre-sales. We are actively investing in AI engineering capabilities and building a long-term AI practice designed around practical, production-ready delivery.

If you thrive in high-ownership environments, move fast, and enjoy solving complex engineering problems with AI at the center, this role is for you.

What We're Looking For

AI Engineering & Delivery (Products and with AI)

  • Building AI into products: Hands-on experience integrating LLMs into real applications; experience with RAG, AI agents, copilots, or AI workflow orchestration.
  • Building products with AI: You already use AI in your development workflow (LLM-assisted coding, prompt engineering, AI-based testing / code review, automation) and can point to examples where this has accelerated delivery.

Architecture & Backend Engineering

  • Strong backend engineering and architecture experience. We're not tied to a specific language or framework. What matters is that you can architect robust, scalable backend systems and that you understand why certain decisions matter.
  • Proven experience shipping production systems end-to-end. Not just designed it, not just prototyped it. You've been responsible for something real that runs in production and that clients depend on.
  • Infrastructure and scalability awareness.

Client-Facing & Communication

  • Strong communication and client-facing skills, with the ability to present and explain complex solutions to both technical and non-technical stakeholders, including executives.
  • Solid English proficiency suitable for executive-facing conversations.

Ways of Working

  • Ability to operate with high ownership and minimal handholding.
  • Works effectively within a delivery team, including engineers, consultants, and BAs, rather than as a solo contributor.

Nice to Have:

  • Consulting or pre-sales experience (POC scoping, proposal shaping, estimation).
  • Full-stack development background.
  • Salesforce or CRM ecosystem exposure.
  • Experience in real estate or financial services domains.

What You'll Do:

Architect & Deliver AI-First Solutions:

  • Design and build production-grade AI-powered applications.
  • Implement RAG pipelines, AI copilots, LLM integrations, and agentic workflows.
  • Own architecture decisions across backend, infrastructure, scalability, and deployment.
  • Lead technical delivery for client-facing AI initiatives.

Use AI to Accelerate Engineering: We expect AI to be part of your development workflow.

You should already be using:

  • LLM-assisted coding
  • AI-powered development tools
  • Prompt engineering
  • AI-based testing and code review
  • Intelligent automation workflows

Support Pre-Sales & Client Conversations

  • Join discovery and solutioning calls with prospects.
  • Translate business problems into realistic technical solutions.
  • Provide architecture direction and delivery estimates.
  • Communicate clearly with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.

Help Shape the AI Practice

  • Define reusable AI architecture patterns.
  • Improve AI delivery standards and engineering workflows.
  • Influence tooling, implementation approaches, and best practices.
  • Work directly with senior architects and leadership/C-level.
  • Mentor engineers and team leads on AI delivery practices.
  • Lead and operate small delivery teams under compressed timelines.

Ascendix offers you:

Healthcare:

  • 20 paid vacation
  • 5 paid sickness

Career and professional growth:

  • B2B and remote cooperation
  • Career development and professional growth
  • Technical performance reviews and 360 Evaluation
  • Collaboration with a personal Direct Manager, Technical leads, and mentors

Learning and Development:

  • Udemy and Pluralsight subscription
  • Internal knowledge-sharing opportunities

Corporate spirit:

  • Online and offline events & team-buildings
  • Friendly and supportive atmosphere
  • Open management
