b) Define API contracts, message flows, error handling, retries, and reconciliation mechanisms.

4. AI / OCR Architecture:

a) Define solution patterns for OCR and LLM-based AI components, including:

• Invoice ingestion pipelines.

• OCR engines and accuracy-enhancement workflows.

• LLM-assisted extraction, validation, and enrichment.

b) Collaborate with AI/ML teams to ensure:

• Explainability and traceability.

• Performance and cost considerations.

• Secure handling of documents and sensitive data.

5. Security, Compliance & Governance

6. Stakeholder Collaboration

a) Act as the technical bridge between:

• Client business & IT teams.

• Internal product, engineering, QA, DevOps, and AI teams.

b) Support presales and solutioning discussions when required.

c) Review and validate implementation approaches proposed by delivery teams.

Required Skills & Experience:

Documentation & Communication:

1. Excellent ability to articulate architecture clearly in documents and diagrams.

2. Strong written and verbal communication skills for client-facing discussions.
