You are the primary delivery anchor ensuring technical integrity, operational scale, and commercial profitability. You will serve as the trusted, technical \"face of delivery\" to C-suite client executives. You will bridge the gap between complex enterprise data strategies-spanning Cloud Migrations, Data Mesh architectures, Real-Time Analytics, and Generative AI/MLOps pipelines-and precise execution across globally distributed engineering pods of 100+ people. The Impact By pairing technical depth with executive gravitas, you will de-risk platform modernisation, ensure strict financial and regulatory governance (e.g., BCBS 239, DORA), drive referenceable client outcomes, and unlock measurable business value through intelligence engineering., Delivery & Technical Oversight * End-to-End Data Programme Delivery: Drive the full lifecycle of complex data initiatives (Data Lakehouses, Data Mesh, Real-time Streaming, and ML/GenAI pipelines) from inception to production, ensuring alignment with GlobalLogic's Delivery Framework and client governance. * Architecture & Technical Alignment: Bridge the gap between C-suite strategy and engineering pods.
