AI & Data Architect (Remote)

About Golden Insight Solutions

Golden Insight Solutions is a boutique technology consultancy specializing in cybersecurity, cloud infrastructure, IT asset management, data architecture, hardware lifecycle services, and enterprise technology strategy.

We work with organizations that demand discretion, technical excellence, and long-term operational resilience. Our clients trust us to design and improve critical technology environments where governance, security, and reliability are just as important as innovation.

We believe technology should simplify operations rather than complicate them. Every solution we design is built around structured architecture, operational maturity, and measurable business outcomes.

We’re looking for an experienced AI & Data Architect to help organizations build secure, scalable, and production-ready AI ecosystems that deliver real business value.

This is a fully remote position working with international clients across multiple industries.

About the Role

As an AI & Data Architect, you will assess, design, and modernize enterprise AI and data platforms supporting advanced analytics, machine learning, and generative AI initiatives.

You’ll work at the intersection of cloud architecture, data governance, security, and AI engineering—ensuring organizations have the technical foundations required to deploy AI responsibly and at scale.

Rather than building isolated proofs of concept, you’ll help design production-grade architectures capable of supporting long-term business operations.

  • Strong experience with Google Cloud Platform (Vertex AI, BigQuery, Cloud Storage).
  • Experience with AWS services including S3, Lambda, RDS, API Gateway, EventBridge, and SQS.
  • Strong understanding of modern cloud data architectures, including lakehouse concepts and large-scale analytics.
  • Experience designing production AI solutions using Large Language Models, Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), embeddings, vector databases, and AI orchestration frameworks.
  • Experience implementing data governance, lineage, privacy, and data quality frameworks.
  • Strong understanding of MLOps including model versioning, deployment, monitoring, and lifecycle management.
  • Experience integrating structured and unstructured data sources.
  • Knowledge of encryption, identity management, and secure data architectures.
  • Familiarity with orchestration tools such as Apache Airflow, Cloud Composer, or similar technologies.
  • Excellent communication skills capable of translating technical concepts into business recommendations.
  • Professional-level English, both written and spoken.
