Solution Architect (Bangkok)

We are looking for someone to join our company and push the frontiers of enterprise AI further.This is not going to be just another architecture job. Right now the scope is heavy on system design and turning business requirements into functional requirements for a large greenfield insurance platform, alongside leading a small team and owning the client relationship. After that, as part of our global team, you will take on whatever comes next.So we are not hiring a specialist for one engagement. We want someone who can handle whatever lands on their desk. The architects who do well here treat specification work as part of building software properly rather than a detour from it, and expect to move between design, delivery, and hands-on engineering as the work demands.Being a startup, direction and execution clarity are often vague, iterative, and less structured. If you thrive in a place where autonomy given is high, and are able to translate broad visions to concrete steps, this is for you.What You'll DoOwn end-to-end system design across services, data models, integrations, and non-functional requirementsTranslate business requirements into clear, detailed, testable functional requirementsRun workshops with client business, compliance, and tech teams, and carry designs through to sign-offLead a team of 3 to 5 engineers, setting technical direction and mentoring the people on itMaintain coding and documentation standardsMove onto new engagements, internal products, and hands-on engineering as our portfolio evolvesQualificationsBachelor's degree in Computer Science (or related field)6+ years of relevant work experience, with time spent designing systems end to endProfessional English and native ThaiMust HaveTrack record delivering large systems in a regulated domain, ideally insurance, banking, or governmentFRDs or functional specifications you have authored and can walk us throughSolid TypeScript/JS and Python experience, with the ability to write production code when the work calls for itReact, Node/Express, REST APIs, Git, Docker, LinuxUnderstanding of embeddings, vector stores, and LLM orchestration patternsExperience leading engineers, formally or informallyComfort making architecture calls under incomplete information and defending them in front of a clientSelf-starter mindset, comfortable in ambiguity, genuinely interested in unfamiliar problemsAbout Pints AIPints AI is a multi-award-winning AI company based in Singapore, known for deploying on-premise, privacy-preserving AI systems in some of Asia's most regulated industries, including banks, insurers, and government entities.Won AI in Finance Global Challenge (2023) at SFF in SingaporeBuilt the 1.5 Pints open-source model, a compact LLM outperforming Apple's OpenELM and Microsoft's Phi-1.5Developed Autothought, our AI framework engine powering back office automation in regulated verticalsEngineered SentientRAG, a low-hallucination RAG framework for compliance-heavy data
