Product Architect - Operate

About the job you’re considering

We are looking for a Senior Product Architect to lead the architecture of our AI-native IT operations product: a unified workspace for escalated incidents, changes and requests. It combines workflow and LLM-based agentic orchestration, real-time AI assistance, and a trusted knowledge engine.

This multidisciplinary role brings together ITSM, automation, AI governance, and knowledge and data architecture to shape one coherent, evolving product.

• Hybrid working: The places that you work-day to day will vary according to your role, your needs and that of the business; it will be a blend of
• Company offices and your home; noting that you will be unable to work at home for 100% of the time.

Your role

• •Define the end-to-end architecture for incident, change and request management across a multi-tenant, multi-customer operation, including SLAs, compliance, workforce scheduling and capacity planning.
• •Design an orchestration layer that turns monitoring signals into automated resolution, using deterministic workflows for known issues and agentic orchestration where context, judgement and adaptation are required.
• •Establish the AI control plane for agent permissions, oversight and safe hand-offs between automated and human-led action.
• •Architect real-time AI capabilities across voice, chat and email to guide support teams, assist major incident commanders, and generate post-incident analysis and crisis communications.
• •Define the knowledge-engine architecture and governance model, keeping operational knowledge, incident patterns, automations and agent skills current and approved for use.
• •Produce implementation-ready architecture and provide technical authority throughout delivery.
• •Advise senior operations, product and engineering stakeholders, turning competing demands into clear architectural direction.
