Director Cloud Architecture & Delivery
Energy Exemplar is seeking a Director of Cloud Architecture & Delivery to lead the development and deployment of cloud-hosted and AI-enabled solutions for its clients. This role involves building and managing a team that collaborates directly with customers to design, integrate, deploy, and validate cloud solutions and AI agents within their environments. The position operates at the intersection of enterprise cloud architecture, energy-market software, applied AI, and consultative pre-sales, serving clients such as utilities, ISOs/RTOs, developers, and regulators.
Key responsibilities include leading a forward-deployed engineering team to translate customer use cases into deployed solutions, embedding with customer teams to design and deploy AI agents and workflows, and acting as a senior technical advisor to clients. The role also involves partnering with Sales and Pre-Sales teams on technical deal strategy, defining acceptance criteria with customers, owning cloud reference architectures, and leading the handoff to post-sales services. Additionally, the Director will set standards for agentic deployments in regulated environments and contribute to RFIs, RFPs, and security reviews.
Candidates should have over 12 years of experience in enterprise technology, including at least 7 years in designing and delivering production cloud architectures for enterprise or regulated customers. Experience leading engineers embedded in customer implementations, strong customer-facing pre-sales experience, and deep expertise in at least one hyperscaler (preferably Azure) are essential. Additional qualifications include experience in designing AI agent engineering in production, understanding enterprise integrations, and the ability to connect architecture decisions to customer business objectives.
