AI Solutions Architect - Federal Civilian

Role Summary

As an AI Solutions Architect for Filevine Federal, you are the technical engine behind Filevine's federal civilian pursuits. This is a deeply technical pre-sales role: rather than demonstrating a fixed product, you will configure and build against agency requirements and specific use cases across Filevine's platform — Console included — working hand in hand with our forward engineering team to stand up demo environments. You will gather and translate agency requirements into technical direction, shape what gets built to demonstrate capability, and then demonstrate that capability to technical and program evaluators.

You will work directly with agency POCs to define the customer's agency need and the engineering effort that meets it. This role requires deeper engineering and product experience than a traditional sales engineer: you must be able to reason about architecture, data, and AI systems, translate ambiguous agency problems into buildable requirements, and move fast in a development-driven environment. We are building a small, elite team of AI Solutions Architects to win the federal civilian AI market, and this role is where agency requirements become demonstrated capability.

Responsibilities

• Gather and translate agency requirements working with federal civilian agency customers and Account Executives to turn ambiguous operational problems into clear, buildable technical requirements and use cases.
• Support requirements identification and shaping partnering with capture and product teams to identify emerging agency requirements early and shape them ahead of a formal solicitation.
• Configure and build against development requirements standing up demo environments across Filevine's platform — Console included — tailored to specific agency use cases, going well beyond a fixed demo script to prove the capability the customer actually needs.
• Partner directly with forward engineering supporting and directing the engineering effort that builds demo environments and prototype capability, and serving as the bridge between customer need and what gets built.
• Demonstrate capability to technical and operational evaluators running credible, agency-relevant demonstrations that show Filevine solving the problem in the customer's context.
• Serve as the technical advisor throughout the pursuit answering deep technical questions, resolving roadblocks, and supporting technical validation, security questionnaires, and the technical portions of responses.
• Support RFPs with demos and documentation building demo assets and writing the technical narrative and supporting documentation that go into RFP and RFI responses.
• Work hand in hand with Account Executives providing the technical proof that moves federal civilian deals past evaluation and into pilot or production.
• Reason about architecture, data, and AI systems advising on how Filevine's platform, including Console, integrates and operates within the customer's environment, including FedRAMP and agency-specific security and compliance constraints.
• Feed customer feedback to product teams feeding agency requirements and field insight back to product and engineering to shape what Filevine's federal platform becomes.
• Partner with strategic pursuit teams working closely with Sales, Proposals, Partnerships, and other strategic teams to align technical strategy with the broader pursuit.

Requirements

• Engineer, or a software engineering / technical product role — with meaningful hands-on engineering or product depth.
• Demonstrated ability to configure and build against development requirements — you can turn a use case into a working, demonstrable solution, not just present a fixed demo.
• Experience translating ambiguous, agency-driven problems into clear technical requirements that an engineering team can build against.
• Strong technical foundation: the ability to reason about architecture, data, integration, and AI/LLM systems, and to work credibly alongside engineers.
• Experience building or deploying systems powered by LLMs or generative/agentic AI, and an understanding of how model behavior shapes the solution.
• Deep understanding of the federal civilian customer — how agency program offices and procurement processes operate — and the ability to speak their language.
• Comfort operating in a fast-moving, development-driven environment, working directly with forward engineering and Account Executives.
• A conceptual, driven, deeply technical operator who can move from requirement to demonstrated capability fast.
