Agentic AI Senior Consultant - Europe

Enterprise AI is moving from pilots to production, and the constraint is no longer the model it's the data. Agents are only as good as what they can sense, trust, and act on in the moment, and real-time, event-driven data is becoming the foundation every serious AI system runs on.

Solace is the leading platform for the enterprise AI era. Established enterprises worldwide — including RBC Capital Markets, Bosch, NSE, BSE, Airtel, HDFC, SBI , PSA Singapore, United Airlines, Schwarz Group, and hundreds more have built their business around Solace to enable intelligent, real-time experiences, modernize their application and integration landscape, and create seamless digital journeys for their customers, partners, and employees.

So, the next time you drive a car, order furniture online, fly in a plane, check your bank balance on your phone, your positive experience could be a direct result of our technology and your hard work!

About the Role

As an Agentic AI Senior Consultant, you will serve as a trusted technical advisor and hands-on builder, owning the successful design, implementation, and production adoption of agentic AI solutions built on Solace Agent Mesh and the Solace Platform in complex enterprise environments.

This role carries the same delivery ownership, autonomy, and customer leadership expectations as our Senior Consultant role, with a primary focus on agentic AI. You will work directly with customer engineering and business teams to identify high-value agentic use cases, design multi-agent architectures, and write the code that takes them from pilot to production. Just as the SDLC anchors software delivery, the Agent Development Lifecycle (ADLC) anchors how you build, evaluate, release, and operate agents. You will combine deep software engineering skills, applied AI expertise, and a strong grounding in event-driven architecture to deliver agentic systems that are secure, observable, governed, and built to scale.

What You’ll Do

• Own the post-sales technical success of customers’ agentic AI initiatives, from use case discovery and solution design through build, production rollout, steady-state operations, and ongoing advisory services
• Lead use case discovery and prioritization workshops that translate customer business goals into realistic, measurable agentic workflows
• Design and build multi-agent solutions with Solace Agent Mesh, including agent decomposition, orchestration and delegation patterns, tool design, memory and state management, and human-in-the-loop controls
• Write, review, and troubleshoot production-quality code in Go (our preferred language, in which Solace Agent Mesh is built) or Python where customer requirements call for it, for agents, tools, plugins, and integrations, and deploy them on Docker, Kubernetes, and cloud platforms
• Connect agents to customer systems and data using MCP servers, A2A protocol, REST APIs, and event-driven integration through the Solace event mesh, bridging AI with existing enterprise applications and legacy platforms
• Implement retrieval and context strategies (RAG, vector stores, knowledge bases, and real-time event context) so agents have the right information at the right time
• Apply the ADLC end to end to move solutions from prototype to production, including requirements and design, evaluation pipelines, testing, versioning, release management, monitoring, and operational runbooks
• Establish observability, guardrails, and governance for agentic systems, covering tracing, quality and accuracy evaluation, cost and latency monitoring, access control at the tool boundary, auditability, and responsible AI practices
• Advise customers on LLM selection and optimization across providers such as Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, AWS Bedrock, and Azure AI Foundry, including prompt design, token and cost management, and model trade-offs
• Act as a long-term trusted advisor, proactively identifying new agentic use cases and helping customers progress from isolated pilots to enterprise-wide, event-driven AI adoption
• Deliver recurring technical reviews, health checks, and roadmap discussions aligned to customers’ annual planning cycles
• Enable customer engineering teams to understand, extend, and take ownership of the solutions you build through pairing, workshops, and high-quality documentation
• Codify field learnings into reusable patterns, reference implementations, accelerators, and best practices that make future engagements faster and raise delivery quality across Professional Services
• Represent the voice of the customer to Product and Engineering, sharing real-world feedback that shapes the Solace Agent Mesh roadmap
• Work closely with the Solace Agent Mesh engineering team, collaborating on complex customer issues, validating new capabilities in real customer environments, and contributing reusable agents, plugins, and accelerators back to the Solace Agent Mesh ecosystem
• Act as a technical leader and mentor, building agentic AI capability across the Professional Services team
• Communicate clearly with technical and non-technical stakeholders, explaining AI trade-offs, risks, and value in plain language and managing expectations
• Travel as required based on customer needs (including occasional international travel)

What You’ll Bring to the Role

Required Experience & Qualifications
