You will shape the AI architecture and roadmap, build production-grade RAG and AI search features on Azure (Azure OpenAI, Azure AI Search, Semantic Kernel), integrate them with a headless CMS (Squidex), and make sure everything meets the quality, safety and compliance standards of a regulated domain.
