How do you apply AI to real-world operational problems?
saas nine is partnering with a major Australian organisation operating across complex engineering, infrastructure and field-based environments to identify an experienced AI Solutions Architect.
This isn't simply an AI development role.
We're looking for someone who can work directly with functional consultants, operational teams, and Subject Matter Experts; understand how the business actually operates; identify where AI can deliver measurable value; and architect the solution from concept through to production.
THE OPPORTUNITY
The organisation has an established Microsoft technology environment and significant internal functional and operational expertise.
What they need is the AI architecture capability to bring these worlds together.
You'll work with SMEs across areas including:
Your role will be to understand their processes, problems, data, and decision points, and determine how AI, intelligent agents, automation, and the wider Microsoft ecosystem can improve how the organisation operates.
POTENTIAL AI USE CASES
Workforce and resource optimisation
Intelligent scheduling and rostering
Timesheet automation and validation
Field Service optimisation
Predictive and preventative maintenance
Asset and maintenance intelligence
Safety and incident analysis
Compliance and operational risk
AI Agents and role‐specific Copilots
Intelligent document and workflow automation
Natural‐language access to enterprise data
You won't be expected to arrive as the Subject Matter Expert across each of these areas.




The business already has those people.
You need to be able to sit with the SME, understand their world, identify what AI can do with it and architect a secure, scalable enterprise solution.
WHAT YOU'LL BE DOING
Lead AI discovery sessions with business, functional and operational stakeholders
Identify and prioritise enterprise AI opportunities
Translate operational requirements into end‐to‐end AI architectures
Design AI Agent, Copilot, RAG and intelligent automation solutions
Architect solutions across Microsoft AI, Azure and Microsoft Fabric
Determine when to use Generative AI, Agentic AI, predictive AI, automation or analytics
Architect integrations with enterprise applications, APIs and operational systems
Design solutions using structured and unstructured enterprise data
Define AI security, identity, governance and Responsible AI controls
Design guardrails and human‐in‐the‐loop controls for sensitive and safety‐critical processes
Work with Data, Engineering, Applications and Security teams from discovery through to production
TECHNOLOGY ENVIRONMENT
We're interested in experience across:
Semantic / Vector Search
Fabric Data Engineering
Fabric Real‐Time Intelligence
Power BI / Semantic Models
AI evaluation, observability and monitoring




Exposure to enterprise platforms such as Dynamics 365, SAP, ServiceNow, workforce management, asset management or Field Service solutions would be highly regarded.
ABOUT YOU
You could currently be an:
Senior AI Engineer moving into Architecture
We're looking for someone who combines architecture capability with enough hands‐on technical knowledge to prototype, validate and challenge solutions.
You should be equally comfortable speaking with a Field Services or Safety SME about how their operation works as you are whiteboarding an AI architecture with Data and engineering teams.
Experience across Infrastructure, Engineering, Rail, Transport, Utilities, Mining, Resources, Manufacturing, Construction, Asset Management or Field Services would be highly regarded, but isn't mandatory.
What's more important is your ability to take AI beyond the demo and apply it to genuine enterprise business problems.
WHY THIS ROLE?
This is an prospect to help shape how AI is actually adopted across a large and complex Australian enterprise.
You'll help discover the opportunities.
You'll work directly with the people who understand the business.
You'll determine where AI genuinely adds value.
You'll architect how it connects to enterprise data and applications.
And you'll help establish the architecture, governance and guardrails required to take AI from experimentation into production.
If you're working at the intersection of Microsoft AI, Data, Enterprise Architecture and real‐world operations, we'd like to hear from you.
We're considering permanent and contract options.
