- Proven track record of influencing and advising C-suite stakeholders on enterprise technology strategy and AI transformation roadmaps.
- Experience architecting solutions on at least two major cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP) with deep knowledge of cloud-native patterns, microservices, and serverless architectures.
- Prior experience at a leading IT services / consulting firm (Big 4, Tier 1 SI, or specialized digital engineering firm) is highly desirable.
- Deep expertise in Generative AI, LLMs, Agentic AI frameworks (LangGraph, Crew.AI, AutoGen), RAG architectures, vector databases, and MLOps.
