Principal Solutions Architect, AI Engineering Coverletter Edwin Casey Principal Solutions Architect, AI Engineering (919) 555-XXXX edwin.casey@example.com https://linkedin.com/example/edwincasey Raleigh, NC 27601 Contact Address Raleigh, NC 27601 Phone (919) 555-XXXX Email edwin.casey@example.com LinkedIn https://linkedin.com/example/edwincasey Website edwincasey-example.com October 21, 2026 Hiring Manager Meridian Cloud Works 123 Main Street Madison, WI 53703 Dear Hiring Manager: I am applying for the AI Engineering Solutions Architect role at Meridian Cloud Works. The work you describe—turning enterprise AI and automation requests into scoped, measurable solutions, then preparing them for sound delivery—matches the focus of my current role. I have 17 years in Microsoft cloud, data, and application architecture, with more than five years in pre-sales and advisory solution architecture, and I am genuinely interested in bringing that experience to your consulting engagements. In my current position at Northstar Cloud Advisory, I lead 60- to 120-minute enterprise discovery and design workshops , using LUMA, IDEO, IBM Enterprise Design Thinking, and Microsoft Catalyst methods to uncover business drivers, constraints, and decision dynamics. I translate feature requests into underlying needs and measurable outcomes , then communicate value and risk to CFO and COO stakeholders and architecture and feasibility to CTO and CISO audiences. My IBM Enterprise Design Thinking, LUMA, and Prosci credentials support both structured discovery and change planning. I develop SOWs with scope boundaries, assumptions, dependencies, and change-control language, along with concise discovery summaries, phased delivery plans, and DevOps-ready backlogs . At Lakeshore Digital Partners, I introduced DevOps-ready backlogs and release gates for a data platform migration, giving delivery teams testable work items and clearer ownership of readiness risks. That experience informs how I surface data, security, and delivery constraints early and support dependable sales-to-delivery handoffs. My current work spans Azure data platforms, Microsoft Fabric, Azure OpenAI , RAG, agents, summarization, Azure AI Search , integration, Power Platform, and Copilot Studio. Since 2023, I have shaped Azure OpenAI engagements by pairing retrieval and response evaluation strategies with feasibility, quality, and responsible-use checks before delivery commitments. I have structured fixed-fee and T&M proposals with attention to margin, utilization, and delivery risk, and I advise clients when Power Platform or Copilot Studio is appropriate, including governance considerations. Meridian Cloud Works’ focus on enterprise consulting across Microsoft cloud technologies is a direct fit for the work I have led: discovery, defensible architecture, practical scope, and clear delivery readiness. I would value the opportunity to contribute that combination to your clients and your sales and delivery teams. Thank you for considering my application. I look forward to discussing how my experience can support Meridian Cloud Works’ enterprise engagements. Sincerely, Click to edit Draw your signature below Clear Generate Signature Save X Edwin Casey
