Job Description

We are looking for a visionary and technically skilled AI Solutions Architect to join our Human Resources function and lead the development of intelligent, agent-driven solutions that enhance workforce analytics, planning, and decision-making.

In this role, you will design and deploy advanced HR intelligence systems using Microsoft Azure, knowledge graphs, and generative AI. You’ll work alongside HR business leaders, data analysts, and IT teams to deliver AI-powered tools that provide strategic insights, automate workforce reasoning, and support key initiatives in areas like talent risk, retention, succession, learning, and compensation.

This is a rare opportunity to bring cutting-edge AI/agentic technologies into the heart of people strategy at enterprise scale.

🌐 Responsibilities

• Architect and implement agentic AI systems that analyze HR data and provide recommendations, alerts, and simulations across key domains (e.g., attrition, skills, compensation)

• Model workforce relationships and patterns as a graph-based knowledge system using Microsoft Azure

• Integrate Azure OpenAI (GPT-4) with HR data models to build reasoning agents that surface insights or simulate HR scenarios

• Build agent workflows using Azure Functions, Logic Apps, or LangGraph (via containerized pipelines)

• Collaborate with HRBPs, talent analytics, L&D, and rewards teams to identify opportunities for intelligent automation

• Create manager- and HR-facing dashboards (Power BI) to expose recommendations in a transparent, explainable way

• Ensure data privacy, security, and compliance in handling sensitive employee data

• Keep pace with innovations in AI, agents, and workforce analytics — and bring them into action

Qualifications

• 3+ years in data/AI engineering, solutions architecture, or enterprise automation

• Prior experience building systems that support HR, People Analytics, or Talent organizations

• Exposure to LLMs in production (GPT-3.5, GPT-4, Claude, etc.)

🔧 Technical Expertise

• Microsoft Azure expertise across:

  • Azure OpenAI (ChatGPT, GPT-4)

  • Azure Functions or Durable Functions

  • Azure Cosmos DB (Gremlin or SQL)

  • Azure Data Factory, Synapse Pipelines, or Dataverse

• Strong Python development skills (LLMs, orchestration, APIs, automation)

• Experience working with knowledge graphs and query languages (Gremlin, Cypher, SPARQL)

• Familiar with LangGraph, LangChain, or other multi-agent coordination tools

🧩 HR Context & Business Alignment

• Clear understanding of key HR processes and data domains (e.g., absences, performance, compensation, learning, mobility)

• Experience building or supporting systems that serve HR, people analytics, or workforce planning teams

• Comfortable collaborating with HRBPs, COEs, and functional leads to understand goals and co-design intelligent tooling

• Ability to translate HR strategy into AI-driven solutions

💡 Innovation + Delivery

• Passion for building agentic and proactive systems — not just dashboards

• Experience delivering usable, explainable intelligence for business stakeholders

• Bias toward experimentation, fast iteration, and strategic scale
