You might see the title AI Architect floating around and not really know what the job is. It is one of the fastest growing roles in tech, and most people misunderstand it. Here is what the role actually does.
What It Is
An AI Architect designs the systems, workflows, and infrastructure that let a company use artificial intelligence in a real, functional way. They are not just building models. They are making decisions about how AI fits into the business, what tools get used, how data flows, and how everything stays secure and reliable.
What They Do
They map out how AI will support the company’s goals. They work with engineering, product, data, and leadership to decide which problems AI should solve. They choose the right models or tools, design the pipelines, and make sure the systems can scale. They also keep an eye on ethics, compliance, and risk because bad AI decisions can expose a company fast.

Black people, be careful with the coworker who always comes to you for help but never brings your name into the room.
It usually starts small.
They ask for your take on something.
They need help shaping a message.
They want feedback on a solution.
You give them the clarity they did not have.
Then the meeting comes. Suddenly the idea is theirs. The strategy is theirs. The win is theirs.

Aiight this is how you show off on your resume.

Too many people waste space listing what they were “responsible for” instead of showing what they actually did. That’s why so many strong candidates get passed over. What makes a resume stand out is proof of impact.

Here are better before-and-after examples across different roles, with a mix of metrics, scale, and outcomes.
Software Engineer

Before: Responsible for building new features
After: Built and launched a new payment module that handled over 120K transactions a week and shaved 20 seconds off the checkout flow

Before: Fixed bugs in production
After: Tracked down and resolved a memory leak issue that stabilized the platform and pushed uptime to 99.8%
DevOps Engineer

Before: Managed CI/CD pipelines
After: Automated deployments, cutting release time from 45 minutes to under 10 and allowing multiple daily releases

Before: Handled server monitoring
After: Built a new monitoring setup that cut downtime incidents nearly in half within a single quarter

Several different ways to flip the script on Recruiters when they ask you “What’s the salary you’re targeting” so you dont low ball yourself in an interview
“Happy to have that conversation, can you share what the role is budgeted for?”
“I’m more focused on finding the right fit and opportunity. I’m confident we can land on a number that reflects the value I bring.”

Here’s the blueprint I walk my clients through when they want to start landing consistent interviews — two to three a month — without wasting time on hope-based strategies.

We start by picking three job titles that actually make sense for their current skills and work history. Then we build three versions of their resume, one for each role
No rewriting the resume for every application. No running prompts through ChatGPT hoping for the best. They only apply to jobs that check their four boxes: salary, title, job type, and location. If a posting doesn’t hit all four, they move on.

From there, we treat it like a sales process.
Find jobs early.
Most people are applying too late. If a job’s been live for over a week, the first round of interviews is probably already booked.

To find fresh listings, I show them how to search company career pages directly through Google:

Prepare for Common Interview Questions: Questions like "Tell me about yourself," "Where do you see yourself in five years?" and "What's your biggest weakness?" are commonly asked. Prepare for them.

A thread on how to answer them.
"Tell me about yourself"

Think of answering this as "Why are you here" and keep it professional: This is not an invitation to share your life story or personal details. Stick to discussing your professional background, experiences, and skills relevant to the job.
Highlight key accomplishments. Discuss some of your biggest professional achievements that demonstrate your ability to do the job.
Be concise: Aim for a response that's no more than one to two minutes long.
