• Insight Delivery: Advance visualization and reporting through semantic models, self-service BI, natural-language analytics, and AI-generated insight.


• Delivery Leadership: Lead multidisciplinary consulting teams, safeguard delivery quality, and serve as the senior technical voice to client executives.


• Growth & Solutioning: Partner with Sales on discovery, solution design, estimates, proposals, and executive presentations.


• Talent & Capability: Recruit, mentor, and develop architects and engineers; raise the technical bar and grow the practice bench.


• Market Presence: Shape reusable offerings, accelerators, and IP, and represent Entech through thought leadership and speaking.

What You Will Bring

• Hands-on architecture depth in Microsoft Fabric/Azure, Databricks, Snowflake, AWS, or GCP.


• Practical experience applying AI to data engineering, governance, analytics, and generative AI use cases.


• Proven consulting or enterprise leadership, with the executive presence to earn trust in the boardroom and the credibility to hold it with the build team.


• A track record of developing people and of turning delivery experience into repeatable practice assets.

If you want to define how enterprises modernize data and adopt AI, and build the practice that delivers it, we would like to talk.
