Parloa is an agentic AI platform that has powered over one billion customer interactions for enterprise brands including Booking.com, HealthEquity, Allianz, SAP, and TUI. The company is building the foundation for a new era in customer experience where support is meaningful rather than transactional. As a Senior Partner Agent Architect, you will operate at the intersection of enterprise solution architecture, conversational AI, and partner enablement. This is a highly consultative, customer-facing role where you guide strategic partners and enterprise customers through solution discovery, end-to-end solution architecture, enterprise integration design, conversational architecture, and implementation strategy for enterprise AI Agents. You will design how Parloa's platform integrates into complex enterprise environments, solve multi-system integration challenges, and apply systems thinking to build reliable, scalable AI solutions.
