• Partner with clients and senior stakeholders to identify AI opportunities, develop technical roadmaps and drive enterprise-wide adoption of AI.

This role is for you if you have: 

• Proven experience leading the architecture and delivery of enterprise-scale AI solutions within consulting, professional services or client-facing environments.
• Strong expertise in modern AI technologies, including Large Language Models (LLMs), agentic AI, RAG architectures and AI-enabled applications.

• Deep understanding of cloud-native architectures and delivery across Azure, AWS and/or Google Cloud Platform, including security, integration and DevSecOps practices.
• Strong knowledge of responsible AI, data governance, security, regulatory and compliance considerations within enterprise environments.
• Excellent stakeholder management, communication and leadership skills, with the ability to influence senior technical and non-technical audiences and lead cross-functional teams.
