Who We Are

At BCG Platinion, we close the gap between strategy and technology. We design and build AI tech strategies, AI solutions, and next-generation platform architectures that turn ambition into execution, turning buzzwords into a true business engine and real competitive advantage. Working at the intersection of boardroom strategy and hands-on tech delivery, we help leading organizations tackle their toughest challenges, with access to C-suite leaders and the unmatched resources of BCG.

What You'll Do

As a Senior AI Tech Architect, you will hold end-to-end ownership of the overall solution architecture — spanning API strategy, data platform design, cloud infrastructure, and AI engineering.

The role requires the ability to operate with authority across all dimensions: from deep technical governance and architecture reviews to C-suite-level communication and strategic advisory with client leadership.

• You lead the design and evolution of enterprise-grade AI engineering platforms, setting the architectural standards and delivery patterns to be implemented across engagements

• You own the end-to-end governance framework for AI-powered systems — defining trust boundaries, identity models, validation hierarchies, and audit mechanisms — and ensure these standards are adopted consistently across multi-team delivery environments

• You architect and oversee evaluation and security programs at scale: from red-teaming strategies and adversarial testing frameworks to compliance-by-design approaches embedded in CI/CD pipelines

• You translate executive-level business intent into multi-horizon AI architectures, balancing immediate delivery velocity with long-term technical sustainability, and define the integration path within existing system landscapes and operating models

• You act as a technical authority in client-facing settings, shaping AI architecture strategy at C-suite and CTO level, and codifying reusable patterns and governance playbooks

What You'll Bring

• You hold a degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, AI Engineering, or a related field

• You have 6-9 years of experience in software development or technical roles, with a strong track record in cloud, backend, or system integration at enterprise scale

• You lead the analysis, design, and optimization of complex IT architectures across multi-team engagements, with deep expertise in legacy modernization, enterprise solutions, and advanced market trends including agentic AI, LLM orchestration, and AI-native architectures

• You have extensive hands-on experience with AI systems — including LLM-based applications, multi-agent architectures, and ML platforms — and have delivered these in production enterprise environments

• You define and govern modern software delivery standards, including DevSecOps practices, CI/CD pipelines, automated testing strategies, and platform engineering approaches across delivery teams

• You have deep command of concepts like agent assembly lines, execution harnesses, and context engineering, and own the architectural decisions that embed them securely and scalably into enterprise landscapes

• You translate executive-level business intent into multi-horizon technical architectures and communicate with authority across C-suite, CTO-level, and technical audiences

• You thrive in interdisciplinary teams and global environments, and are flexible and willing to travel as needed

• You are willing to travel to client sites in Italy and abroad (frequency varies by project)

• You have strong written and verbal communication skills in both Italian and English (minimum B2, C1 preferred) — senior client-facing interaction and executive communication are core components of the role
