Design enterprise GenAI reference architectures, create ADRs and technical standards, bridge GenAI with enterprise workflows.

What you'll learn

Core responsibilities this discipline prepares you for.

1

Define enterprise GenAI architecture

with proper documentation and governance

  • Write Architecture Decision Records (ADRs) for GenAI system design choices with trade-off analysis
  • Design reference architectures for common enterprise GenAI use cases
  • Create ADRs, design reference architectures, and present trade-off analyses to stakeholders
2

Design scalable RAG systems

at enterprise scale

  • Architect full RAG stacks: document processing โ†’ embedding pipelines โ†’ pgvector โ†’ hybrid search with reranking
  • Design multi-tenant data isolation with embedding pipeline separation and row-level security
  • Benchmark RAG systems against enterprise-scale document volumes for throughput and accuracy
3

Architect multi-agent systems

with MCP mesh and A2A network topology

  • Design MCP mesh architecture for distributed tool access across organizational boundaries
  • Plan A2A agent network topologies with lifecycle governance and communication protocols
  • Stress-test multi-agent architectures with simulated failure scenarios and cascading fault injection
4

Lead PoC development and production rollouts

with model selection and cost estimation

  • Compare models across providers with cost-per-request modeling and quality benchmarking
  • Build prototype evaluation frameworks with production readiness checklists and go/no-go criteria
  • Evaluate models for specific use cases, build cost projections, and create decision frameworks
5

Design GenAI governance architecture

โ€” RBAC, audit trails, and compliance

  • Build multi-tenant GenAI governance with role-based access control for models, prompts, and data
  • Design audit trail architecture with policy-as-code enforcement and compliance reporting
  • Architect governance for multi-business-unit enterprises and validate regulatory compliance
6

Oversee operational architecture

โ€” observability, FinOps, SLA management

  • Design full-stack observability architecture spanning metrics, logs, traces, and LLM-specific telemetry
  • Architect FinOps dashboards and incident response workflows with SLA definition and monitoring
  • Validate operational architecture designs against production SLA targets and failure scenarios
7

Integrate GenAI with enterprise data platforms

โ€” pipelines, knowledge graphs, streaming

  • Design data architectures integrating PostgreSQL, pgvector, Kafka streaming, Neo4j, Redis, and MinIO
  • Architect data flows that support multiple GenAI use cases simultaneously across shared infrastructure
  • Build data architecture designs for multi-use-case enterprise scenarios with isolation and scaling
8

Present architecture decisions

with cost/risk analysis to leadership

  • Apply ADR methodology with structured trade-off analysis and risk quantification frameworks
  • Conduct architecture reviews with stakeholders and defend design decisions under scrutiny
  • Write ADRs, conduct architecture reviews, and present cost/risk arguments for design choices
