Experience Acceleration Sr. Architect

This role is for a hands-on builder and technical architect who combines CX expertise, application development, and AI-first engineering practices to turn complex ideas into working solutions quickly. You should be comfortable independently designing and building applications, integrations, AI-powered experiences, and automation using Genesys Cloud, modern development frameworks, APIs, SDKs, and AI-assisted development environments. Creativity, technical judgment, and the ability to move from concept to scalable working solution with pace and urgency are critical for success.

What You Will Be Doing

• Own technical solutions from problem definition and architecture through development, testing, deployment, documentation, and iteration.
• Design, build, test, and iterate on AI and Agentic Virtual Agent experiences in Genesys Cloud that demonstrate the value of experience orchestration, automation, and AI-powered customer engagement.
• Build applications, integrations, prototypes, and automation using Genesys Cloud APIs, SDKs, extensibility capabilities, and modern development frameworks to solve practical customer and go-to-market use cases.
• Design AI-powered solutions using LLMs, tool and function calling, structured outputs, grounding patterns, orchestration, guardrails, and evaluation approaches.
• Create reusable components, integration patterns, frameworks, and reference architectures that reduce duplicate development and accelerate future builds.
• Use AI-first development practices and AI-assisted development environments across solution design, code generation, refactoring, debugging, testing, and documentation.
• Translate business and customer problems into technical requirements, solution designs, working software, and clear technical tradeoffs for technical and non-technical stakeholders.

What You Need to Be Successful

• Strong hands-on application development experience using JavaScript/TypeScript, Python, or equivalent, with the ability to design, build, debug, test, and maintain applications, integrations, APIs, automation, and prototypes.
• Experience with REST APIs, SDKs, authentication and OAuth, JSON, webhooks, Git/version control, API design, and common cloud and application development patterns.
• Ability to independently own technical work from requirements and architecture through implementation, validation, deployment, and documentation.
• Experience designing reusable application components, integration patterns, technical frameworks, or architectures that can scale across multiple use cases.
• Demonstrated experience using AI-assisted development environments and coding agents across solution design, code generation, refactoring, debugging, testing, documentation, and iterative development.
• Experience designing or building AI-powered applications using LLMs, conversational AI, virtual agents, agentic workflows, tool calling, automation, or similar AI capabilities.
• Ability to evaluate AI-generated code and AI-powered solutions for correctness, security, maintainability, reliability, and intended business outcomes.
• Ability to translate technical concepts, architecture decisions, and working solutions into clear business value for sales teams, solution consultants, customers, partners, and leadership.
• Ability to operate independently in a creative, fast-moving environment while collaborating across product, engineering, sales, solution consulting, and enablement.
• Professional proficiency in English is required.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience deploying Agentic Virtual Agents, conversational AI, Generative AI, Agent Assist, knowledge automation, or orchestration solutions in production or customer-facing environments.
• Understanding of contact center operations, customer experience strategy, workforce engagement, digital engagement, routing, analytics, or CRM integrations.
• Experience with cloud infrastructure and deployment patterns, including AWS or comparable cloud platforms.

Success in This Role Looks Like

• Genesys has stronger, scalable AI and Agentic Virtual Agent experiences that help teams demonstrate and deliver value faster.
• Successful solutions become reusable components, reference implementations, or technical patterns that accelerate future development across the organization.
• Uses AI-assisted development and agentic workflows to accelerate the path from idea to scalable working solution while applying strong technical judgment, validation, security, and quality standards.
