实践负责人 — AI 与数据（亚太区）

Role Overview
Act as the hands-on AI technical leader for FPT's consulting practice. You design AI strategies, architect end-to-end solutions, and lead client workshops translating business needs into scalable AI systems for regulated industries. This is a producing role: you draw the architecture, write the playbook, and run the workshop yourself.
You will work closely with leadership, other CoE Directors, and FPT's offshore AI engineering teams. If you want to step out of a large firm's hierarchy, build something from scratch, and accelerate your path to Practice Lead or MD
Responsibilities
1. AI Practice & Solution Architecture (40%)

• Lead AI strategy, architecture, and solution design across GenAI, ML, data platforms, and MLOps/AIOps

• Build reusable consulting IP: AI readiness frameworks, reference architectures, operating model designs, and proposal templates

• Produce key technical artefacts yourself with architecture blueprints, data pipeline designs, solution specs not just review or delegate

• Write PRDs for FPT's FleziPT AI platform based on real client demand; review offshore engineering outputs

• Design and deliver an AI skills curriculum to upskill FPT's Solution Architects and Business Analysts (AI strategy framing, use-case economics, data readiness, Agentic AI, Digital Workers)

2. Client Engagement & Pre-sales (35%)

• Run AI workshops directly with CTOs, CDOs, Enterprise Architects, and data/ML engineering leads

• Lead end-to-end proposal development and solutioning for AI transformation engagements

• Actively contribute to pipeline growth by identifying expand opportunities within existing accounts and shaping new pursuits with the MD

3. Delivery Oversight (15%)

• Brief and direct offshore AI/engineering teams with structured requirements, milestone reviews, and quality gates

• Act as technical quality gate review solution outputs before client presentation

• Work with the Legacy Modernisation Director to ensure modernisation designs are AI-ready: observability, telemetry, data layer, automation hooks

• Be ready to go hands-on with AI engineering (even coding level) when a critical situation demands it

4. Thought Leadership (10%)

• Support C-suite engagements alongside the MD

• Co-develop AI thought leadership: industry POVs, solution briefs, and conference presentations

Requirements

• 12+ years in AI/ML, data engineering, or technical consulting, with genuine hands-on development or model-building experience

• End-to-end experience delivering AI/data transformation programmes and whiteboard to production, not just POCs or advisory

• Strong domain exposure in healthcare or banking (regulated environments in APAC)

• Deep expertise across two or more of: GenAI/LLMs, ML platforms, MLOps/AIOps, data pipelines, cloud-native AI services

• Demonstrated ability to produce architecture designs and lead client workshops at CTO/CDO level independently

• T-shaped profile: frame AI investments in business outcomes, not model metrics — run a C-suite AI strategy session AND a hands-on architecture deep-dive

• Both advisory and implementation experience: you have shaped AI strategy AND overseen delivery

• Hands-on experience creating consulting IP and you have personally written AI frameworks, assessment tools, or reference architectures used by others

• Experience directing offshore teams across time zones to briefing engineers, reviewing outputs, giving structured feedback

• Strong executive communication and comfort in client-facing pre-sales situations

• AI use cases in banking (fraud, risk, automation) or healthcare (clinical NLP, decision support, care pathway optimisation, Agentic AI)

• Knowledge of AI governance and APAC regulations (MAS FEAT, TRM guidelines, health data privacy)

• Exposure to AI-assisted modernisation tooling (code analysis, automated refactoring, AI-augmented testing)

• Experience co-selling with hyperscalers (AWS, Azure, GCP) in an AI context

• Regional APAC experience across multiple markets

• MBA or postgraduate qualification
