About the role

  • This includes supporting use cases such as feature-gated AI rollouts, safe experimentation with LLM-driven systems, AI governance, and progressive delivery of agentic workflows.
  • LaunchDarkly's Services team is recognized as best-in-class among our peers.
  • You'll establish best practices for AI delivery, experimentation, and governance, and then prove them out in code.

Responsibilities

  • Lead complex Professional Services engagements focused on AI-enabled and traditional software delivery, aligning customer goals with LaunchDarkly best practices.
  • Design and help implement safe rollout patterns for AI - progressive exposure, guardrails, kill switches, and prompt/model experimentation - directly in the customer's codebase.
  • Build reference implementations, integrations, and prototypes alongside customer engineers - writing production-quality code that demonstrates the pattern, not just a slide describing it.
  • Slow, inefficient development cycles, costly outages, and fragmented customer experiences are preventing developers from building their best software.
  • Maximizing the business impact of every feature through the ability to experiment and optimize
  • We're building a team that is humble, open, collaborative, respectful and kind.
  • As a Solutions Architect - AI, you will lead strategic engagements focused on helping customers adopt and operationalize AI-powered applications and platforms using LaunchDarkly.
  • As a Solutions Architect, you'll do more than advise - you'll build alongside customer engineering teams, integrating LaunchDarkly directly into their systems and shipping working implementations into production.

Requirements

  • 4+ years in enterprise software, platform engineering, or solutions architecture, with a hands-on, consultative approach.
  • Hands-on experience with AI-assisted development tools (Claude Code, Cursor, or similar).
  • Experience delivering across the full SDLC in enterprise environments and leading teams through development or platform transformations.
  • Hands-on experience with a major cloud provider (AWS, Azure, or GCP), Linux, and containers.
  • Modern software delivery was supposed to be the foundation for a thriving digital business but reality has proven otherwise.
  • You can write production-quality code in one or more modern languages (Python, Java, JavaScript/Node.js, Go, or similar) and can independently build and ship working integrations and prototypes in a customer's repository - not just architect them.
  • Understanding of Model Context Protocol (MCP) or similar tool-augmented/agent-based approaches, or strong interest in learning.
  • Ability to guide customers in DevOps, CI/CD, and modern release practices, including experimentation and progressive delivery.
  • Strong grasp of how feature management and experimentation platforms accelerate and de-risk software delivery
  • Open to 20% travel.
