Agentic AI Architect – Portfolio-Wide

Value Driven Solutions invites visionary Contract Agentic AI Architects to design bespoke, portfolio-spanning frameworks that propel PE-backed companies toward autonomous intelligence, fusing reasoning, planning, tool-use, and memory to automate complex decisions like portfolio-wide capex allocation or cross-company risk forecasting. With up to 75% travel to executive summits and hackathons, you'll lead architectural visioning—assessing maturity against VDS's Agentic Roadmap—and deliver modular blueprints that scale from single-agent pilots to enterprise meshes, targeting $50M+ in collective value through 20-30% decision velocity gains.

As a senior IC reporting to PE partners and CEOs, you'll specify ontologies for agent interoperability (e.g., using JSON-LD schemas), orchestrate with frameworks like Semantic Kernel, and embed advanced capabilities (e.g., Monte Carlo planning, knowledge graphs). Ensuring alignment with TOGAF-like principles, you'll mitigate risks via simulations and phased governance, presenting blueprints with NPV models to investment committees. This elite role suits strategic architects with deep agentic expertise, who've orchestrated transformations in matrixed enterprises.

VDS positions you at the forefront, co-authoring our portfolio AI constitution.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Architect 24-36 month Agentic roadmaps, benchmarking against SOTA (e.g., o1 reasoning).
  • Design scalable architectures: agent hierarchies, API ecosystems, and persistence layers.
  • Lead technical governance, including ethical AI audits and vendor alignments.
  • Prototype high-fidelity demos and facilitate cross-portco standards.
  • Author thought leadership for VDS, influencing industry benchmarks.

Required Qualifications:

  • Advanced degree in AI/Systems; 7+ years architecture, 3+ in agentic AI with enterprise impact.
  • Mastery of planning algos (PDDL, LLMs for reasoning), graph DBs (Neo4j).
  • Experience driving $20M+ transformations in PE/consulting.
  • Executive presence for board-level pitches.
  • Agile/DevOps fluency for iterative builds.

Preferred Experience:

  • Multi-agent systems in finance/ops for PE theses.
  • Integration with Industry 4.0 (e.g., agent-MES handoffs).
  • Patents/publications in autonomous systems.

To apply: Send CV + short note on the specific impact you’ve driven with agentic AI in private-equity or industrial settings to [email protected]. Include role title in subject line and your availability.

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
