Forward Deployed AI Architect
About Tribe AI:
At Tribe, were on a mission to help enterprises realize the value of AI for their business. Every large enterprise wants to use AI to transform how they operate but many dont have the capabilities to do it. That gap is our opportunity.
Were an AI-native services company that helps enterprises build and deploy best-in-class AI products that deliver real business impact. We partner closely with OpenAI and Anthropic, giving us rare visibility into the most advanced models, roadmaps, and GTM strategies in the world.
About the Role
Were looking for a Forward Deployed AI Architect to lead our most mission-critical client engagements. This isnt a back-office architecture role. Youll be in the field – shoulder-to-shoulder with clients – designing end-to-end AI systems, setting technical direction, and ensuring that what we build actually works in the real world.
Youll be equal parts technologist, strategist, and translator: dropping into the weeds when systems need unblocking, stepping up to the balcony to shape client strategy, and always keeping focus on the only thing that matters – building technology that solves the most important problems for our customers.
Key Responsibilities:
Technical Leadership
Drive technical discovery with clients: understand environments, constraints, and the realities of dynamic enterprises.
Design AI/ML architectures that balance speed, reliability, and cost – but never at the expense of outcomes.
Provide architectural guardrails while enabling engineers to move fast and adapt in the field.
Client Engagement
Act as the forward-deployed face of technical leadership, tailoring communication from engineers to C-levels.
Teach and enable client teams by turning complexity into clarity.
Influence decision-making by linking technical choices to business wins.
Delivery & Enablement
Guide engineers through execution without smothering them in process.
Translate client-specific solutions into reusable patterns that strengthen our platform.
Share insights across the company, raising the bar for future deployments.
About You:
8+ years designing and delivering complex software systems, with strong AI/ML depth.
Proven experience as a technical lead or architect in high-stakes, enterprise environments.
Mastery of the AI development lifecycle: from messy data ingestion to model deployment and monitoring.
Ability to engage credibly across audiences – engineers in the trenches, executives in the boardroom.
Background in consulting or client-facing engineering roles where outcomes mattered more than process.
Systems thinker with a missionary mindset: youre here to win, not to optimize for your next job.
Why Join Us:
Impact: Lead the design of AI systems that move the needle for global enterprises.
Exposure: Work across industries on problems that rarely have playbooks.
Enablement: Build not just solutions, but client capabilities that outlast your engagement.
Culture: Join a team that prizes creativity, resilience, and the primacy of winning over process.
Growth: Stretch yourself – real growth is painful, nonlinear, and career-defining.

7+ years of experience working across multiple regions or markets where consistency and local nuance must be balanced
Fluency in modern AI tools, including large language models, with experience using them thoughtfully to improve policy development, analysis, and operational leverage.
Strong communication skills, including the ability to articulate policy rationale and tradeoffs clearly
A structured, systems-oriented approach to reducing ambiguity and improving governance clarity
