You bring 12+ YEARS of experience, a growth mindset and a drive to make a lasting impact.  Valtech is hiring a Senior Director, Data & AI, to help us win and deliver our most complex client engagements across the Americas, with a particular focus on industrial and manufacturing clients. You’ll shape and lead strategic pursuits, serve as technical lead on a portion of the work we win, and raise the bar for the teams that build and run it.  This is a player-coach role. About half your time is client-billable, typically as technical lead on two engagements. The rest goes to pursuits, solution quality, staffing support, and the reusable assets that help the practice scale. You’ll report to the VP and Head of Data & AI, Americas, and you’ll own real decisions on the pursuits and solutions you lead from your first day.  You will thrive in this role if you are:  <ul> <li>A curious problem solver who challenges the status quo </li> <li>A collaborator who values teamwork and knowledge-sharing </li> <li>Excited by the intersection of technology, creativity and data </li> <li>Experienced in Agile methodologies and consulting (a plus) </li> </ul> Our point of view  Deployment isn’t the finish line, it’s game day. We focus on getting AI into production and keeping it there, which means the data, platform, evaluation, and operating foundations matter as much as the model. You’ll carry that point of view into client conversations and into the work itself.
