About Turing
Based in Palo Alto, California, Turing is one of the world’s fastest-growing AI companies accelerating the advancement and deployment of powerful AI systems. Turing helps customers in two ways: working with the world’s leading AI labs to advance frontier model capabilities in thinking, reasoning, coding, agentic behavior, multimodality, multilingualism, STEM and frontier knowledge; and leveraging that expertise to build real-world AI systems that solve mission-critical priorities for Fortune 500 companies and government institutions. Turing has received numerous awards, including Forbes’s “One of America’s Best Startup Employers,” #1 on The Information’s annual list of “Most Promising B2B Companies,” and Fast Company’s annual list of the “World’s Most Innovative Companies.” Turing’s leadership team includes AI technologists from industry giants Meta, Google, Microsoft, Apple, Amazon, Twitter, McKinsey, Bain, Stanford, Caltech, and MIT.

The Role
We are seeking an AI Applications Architect to join our technology team. This is a high-impact, hybrid role focused on solution architecture, technical strategy, and client engagement—with additional leadership responsibilities in our internal innovation group, UltraLab.
You’ll serve as a key technology voice in pre-sales and solutioning conversations, designing actionable technical architectures and delivery plans for AI-powered digital applications. You’ll guide internal teams in shaping the “how we deliver it” for client-facing proposals—owning everything from the proposed tech stack to timeline and staffing assumptions.
Once a Product Requirements Document (PRD) is locked and a project moves into execution, you’ll transition into an advisory role—supporting internal delivery leads and maintaining high-level client relationships to ensure strategic alignment, architectural fidelity, and delivery success, and refocus on new opportunities.
In parallel, you’ll play a leadership role in UltraLab, our core prototyping group—shaping technical direction, guiding day-to-day PoC and prototype builds, and identifying opportunities to turn innovative solutions into internal tools, reusable delivery modules or full-scale customizable product offerings.
What You’ll Do
Client Engagement & Solutioning
Act as the senior technology lead in pre-sales and strategy discussions with clients
Translate product ideas and strategies into feasible, scalable technical architectures
Define key proposal elements: architecture, tech stack, timeline, and delivery team sizing
Architecture & Delivery Advisory
Ensure smooth handoff from solutioning to execution through close collaboration with Delivery Managers
Remain a senior advisor on active projects, helping maintain architectural integrity and alignment with strategic goals
Cultivate high-level relationships with client leadership throughout the engagement
Innovation & Productization
Play a leadership role in UltraLab, our internal prototyping team, guiding the engineering direction and hands-on technical decisions
Identify high-potential solutions that can be reused across engagements or scaled into customizable product modules
Serve as a strategic advisor to the leadership team on productization priorities and go-to-market readiness
Internal Collaboration
Work with Pre-Sales, R&D, and Delivery teams to shape repeatable, high-quality tech approaches
Contribute to internal tool development, knowledge-sharing assets, and best practices for solutioning and prototyping
Stay ahead of emerging technologies and guide their practical integration into client solutions
Mentorship & Leadership
Mentor senior engineers and architects across teams
Contribute to building a strong, forward-thinking technical leadership culture
Who You Are
A seasoned technologist with a strong background in software engineering and architecture, ideally with 10+ years of experience
Experience in technology services or consulting, particularly in solutions delivery—not staff augmentation
Demonstrated ability to engage with senior stakeholders and credibly represent the technology strategy
Skilled at bridging product vision and technical execution, translating high-level strategies into concrete, achievable roadmaps
Experience in AI and modern data/ML stacks is a plus, but not a requirement—what matters most is your ability to integrate emerging tech pragmatically into broader solutions
Comfortable leading delivery teams while supporting business development and growth
Strong communicator, both technically and strategically
Bonus Points
- Previous experience at a well-known, technology solutioning or technology services company, focused on creating, building and shipping digital applications for clients
- Exposure to or direct experience with AI/ML-powered platforms, applications and solutions
- Passion for solving complex business problems through technology, not just building systems for the sake of it
What We Offer
Impactful Work: Build and influence the future of applied AI through real-world deployments and innovation initiatives
Growth & Learning: Work at the cutting edge of AI in a fast-paced, mission-driven environment
Collaborative Culture: Join a diverse, world-class team with shared values around quality, ownership, and experimentation
Compensation & Flexibility: Competitive salary, performance incentives, health benefits, and flexible work arrangements
Advantages of joining Turing:
- Amazing work culture (Super collaborative & supportive work environment; 5 days a week)
- Awesome colleagues (Surround yourself with top talent from Meta, Google, LinkedIn etc. as well as people with deep startup experience)
- Competitive compensation
- Flexible working hours
- Full-time remote opportunity
