Engineer V – AI Architecture | Agentic AI & Conversational AI

Location: Gurugram, India | Work Model: Hybrid | Level: Engineer V

About Anaplan

Anaplan is a leading enterprise planning and decision-making platform that enables organizations to connect strategy, planning and execution across finance, supply chain, workforce and other critical business functions. As enterprises increasingly move toward AI-powered decision-making, Anaplan is building the next generation of intelligent experiences that combine enterprise data, advanced analytics, Generative AI and automation.

We are looking for an exceptional Engineer V – AI Architecture to play a pivotal role in defining and building this future.

About the Role

The Engineer V – AI Architecture is a senior technical architecture role focused on the design and evolution of Anaplan’s next generation of Agentic AI and Conversational AI capabilities. The role sits at the intersection of AI, software architecture, distributed systems and enterprise product engineering and is intended for an architect who is equally comfortable discussing system architecture at a strategic level and getting hands-on with the technology when required.

You will define how intelligent agents interact with users, enterprise data, business applications, APIs and planning capabilities. You will architect systems that can understand natural-language intent, maintain context, reason over relevant information, retrieve enterprise knowledge, invoke tools, orchestrate multi-step workflows and deliver reliable outcomes.

This is not an architecture-only position. We are looking for someone who still enjoys engineering and is comfortable moving from architecture diagrams and technical strategy to prototypes, experiments and production-quality code. While architecture and technical leadership will be the primary focus, hands-on coding will be an important part of the role when required to validate architectural decisions, develop reference implementations, build critical capabilities or solve complex technical problems. Depending on business and project requirements, approximately 20–30% of the role may involve hands-on engineering and coding.

What You Will Work On

You will be responsible for shaping the technical architecture of AI-powered experiences across the Anaplan platform. This includes designing intelligent agent architectures capable of understanding business intent and context, determining the appropriate actions or information required, interacting with enterprise systems and executing workflows in a secure and controlled manner.

You will help evolve Anaplan from traditional conversational experiences toward sophisticated agentic systems that can reason, plan, retrieve information, use enterprise tools and collaborate across multiple services. You will establish architectural patterns for agent orchestration, state and memory management, tool and function calling, context management, retrieval, workflow execution and human-in-the-loop controls.
