• Help design cloud platforms for AI solutions, including model hosting, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), assistants and agents, with appropriate security and cost controls.
• Use AI coding assistants and agents in accordance with team practices, including code reviews, testing, security checks and human validation.

Compensation and position status Estimated annual salary range: CAD $80,000–$155,000. Actual compensation is determined based on factors such as skills, experience, education, certifications and the local market. This role is an existing vacancy. #LI-NO1 Use of the term ‘architect’ in this job posting refers to the technical sense related to Information Technology (IT) and does not imply that the individual practices architecture or possesses the requisite license as prescribed by the applicable provincial or territorial architect regulator. We are seeking individuals with expertise in IT architect-related functions, but licensure from an architect regulator is not a prerequisite for this position. Architecture is a regulated profession in Canada which is restricted in terms of use of titles and designation.
