Hi,
Hope you are doing well.
Role : Senior AI/ML Architect – Customer‑Facing, Strategic Role
Location : Remote
Term:- Contract Role
Role Summary
We are seeking a Senior Data & Analytics Architect to serve as a customer‑anchoring, consultative leader. This role combines deep architectural expertise with strong commercial and stakeholder‑shaping capability.
The architect will co‑create the current‑to‑future state data, analytics, and AI vision, anchor senior customer conversations, and directly enable downstream solutioning and delivery opportunities for Wipro. This is not a pure design role—it requires ownership of the narrative, influence, and commercial outcomes.
Key Responsibilities
Anchor and lead customer discussions with IT and Business teams.
Understand, document, and rationalize the current‑state data and analytics landscape.
Co‑create a future‑state / target architecture covering:
Unified data foundation
Data integration layer
Analytics, dashboards, and reporting
AI‑enabled insights and communication
Address core LPF (Large Product Fulfilment) challenges:
Lack of end‑to‑end visibility across product fulfilment lifecycle
Data silos and failed prior “lighthouse” approaches
Shape AI‑enabled use cases (forecasting, decision intelligence, communication).
Translate architecture into sized, phased delivery opportunities.
Partner with sales and delivery teams to ensure downstream revenue capture.
Serve as a long‑term embedded advisor, providing continuity across change.
Required Experience & Skills
Experience
12–18+ years of experience in data, analytics, or platform architecture roles.
8+ years in customer‑facing / consultative engagements.
Proven experience shaping enterprise‑scale data and analytics transformations.
Demonstrated success influencing senior stakeholders and anchoring solution conversations.
Core Skills
Strong current‑state to target‑state architecture design capability.
Deep understanding of:
Data engineering and integration
Analytics and reporting platforms
AI / advanced analytics concepts
Commercial mindset—comfortable owning solution visioning, sizing, and positioning.
Executive‑level communication and storytelling skills.
Preferred
Retail, supply chain, or fulfilment analytics experience.
Exposure to forecasting and planning platforms (e.g., o9, Relex).
Experience operating in fast‑evolving, ambiguous environments.
Why This Role Matters
Directly impacts Customer’s data and analytics strategy.
Critical to prevent architecture‑only handoff and ensure Wipro captures downstream delivery.
Addresses foundational challenges:
End‑to‑end visibility
Data silos
AI‑enabled integration and communication
Designed as a long‑term strategic investment, not temporary coverage.
Success Indicators
Trusted architect and advisor to Wipro & Customer leadership.
Clearly defined and adopted target‑state architecture.
Pipeline of well‑shaped, executable delivery opportunities.
Improved business visibility and analytics adoption.
Strong Wipro positioning as a strategic Data & AI partner.
