You will shape intelligent solutions that solve complex business challenges while enabling long-term digital readiness. This is a unique opportunity for professionals with a foundation in delivery and architecture, and a mindset focused on continuous innovation, client value, and organizational growth.

Your Key Responsibilities

• Engage with internal and client stakeholders to define solution roadmaps, strategic outcomes, and business transformation goals.
• Translate high-level business objectives into actionable technical requirements and architectural blueprints for AI, Digital Twin, and IoT-based ecosystems.
• Lead end-to-end project lifecycle: estimation, sprint planning, solution design, development oversight, testing, and go-live.
• Architect and enable solutions that incorporate Digital Twin frameworks, Digital Thread integration, AI/ML pipelines, and real-time data flows for operational intelligence.
• Guide cross-functional engineering, data, and platform teams through agile delivery cycles.
• Serve as the client-facing anchor for solution storytelling, demo orchestration, and strategic alignment workshops.
• Develop go-to-market (GTM) strategies with marketing, sales, and pre-sales—framing offerings in terms of value, scalability, and business relevance.
• Identify opportunities to integrate GenAI, automation, and predictive intelligence into solution backbones to elevate business impact.
• Define and track success metrics (KPIs) post-deployment to ensure alignment with customer goals and business returns.
• Mentor high-performing teams and drive continuous learning in digital architecture, business communication, and delivery excellence.
• Create scalable patterns and reusable solution components for future business enablement and platformization.

Soft Skills

• Proven leadership and team-building capabilities, with a coaching mindset.
• Strong business storytelling and client communication skills—able to simplify technology to drive strategic buy-in.
• System-level thinking with the ability to balance tactical delivery with long-term vision.
• Confidence in engaging senior business and technology stakeholders in large-scale digital initiatives.

To Qualify for the Role, You Must Have

• A master’s degree in computer science, Engineering, or a related field.
• 9–15 years of experience, with a strong foundation in digital solution delivery, enterprise technology, and client-facing engagements.
• Demonstrated experience in solution architecture, especially around Digital Twin, AI/ML, cloud-native platforms, and data-driven decision systems.
• Proven ability to translate business needs into technology strategies and manage full lifecycle project delivery.
• Strong understanding of cloud platforms (Azure, AWS, GCP) and connected ecosystems including IoT, Edge, and real-time processing.
• Experience in shaping GTM plans, technical proposals, and working with sales/pre-sales teams to close strategic deals.

Ideally, You’ll Also Have

• Industry experience in BFSI, healthcare, manufacturing, or retail where Digital Twin, AI, or IoT solutions have been successfully implemented.
• Hands-on exposure to delivery frameworks like Agile, SAFe, and tools like JIRA, Azure DevOps, or Confluence.
• Certifications in architecture frameworks (e.g., TOGAF), product ownership, or cloud platforms.
• Experience in business case creation, client workshops, and executive stakeholder management.
• A proven track record of driving digital transformation, innovation-led delivery, and organizational growth.
