Here’s what the opportunity supported through our TGS Talent Acquisition Team requires: We’re seeking a bold, independent thinker who thrives at the intersection of business strategy and technology transformation. This is not a role for order-takers; it is for leaders who challenge conventional thinking, bring creative solutions to complex problems, and drive outcomes without waiting to be told what to do. You will serve as a trusted advisor to our most important customers, helping executive and technical leaders cut through ambiguity and chart a clear path forward. AI advisory and strategy have become a defining capability in this role - you will guide clients through enterprise AI readiness, use case prioritization, governance frameworks, and the architectural decisions required to move from pilot to production at scale. You own the advisory relationship, shape the strategy, generate new opportunities, and solution the right approach for each client. You bring a bias for action, a high tolerance for ambiguity, and the credibility to stand in a room with a C-suite and say something they haven't heard before, then back it up. Ability to travel up to 25% Responsibilities: Strategic Delivery & Advisory You will engage directly with clients to cut through complexity and provide the expert strategic guidance and architectural direction needed to move transformation initiatives forward. This means working shoulder-to-shoulder with customer leadership, technical architects, and program sponsors- not just advising from the sidelines, but ensuring the work is progressing, decisions are getting made, and the right outcomes are within reach. You think in systems, not just solutions. You know when to push and when to listen. And you bring the kind of architectural & strategic credibility that earns the right to shape how a client thinks about their future. • Architectural Thought Leadership: • You bring deep fluency in modern enterprise architecture frameworks and know how to apply them pragmatically, not just theoretically. • You assess current-state architecture honestly, define the target state with clarity, and chart a pragmatic path between the two, leveraging modern technologies and platforms to help clients move faster and with more confidence. • You design target-state architectures built for where the business is going, spanning application, data, integration, and AI layers. • You understand the relationship between business capability and technology architecture and use that lens to help clients make better investment and design decisions. • You are current on modern architecture patterns including cloud-native design, API-led integration, event-driven architecture, and AI-ready infrastructure, and you know when each one is the right tool for the job. Customer Engagement • Strategic Consultation & Assessment • You get beneath the surface. You engage with clients to understand not just their stated goals but the underlying business challenges and strategic pressures shaping their decisions. • You facilitate strategy and planning workshops that drive real alignment, not just consensus, turning complex transformation ambitions into clear, sequenced initiatives. • You bring a point of view. You provide strategic guidance on how technology and enterprise architecture can become genuine enablers of business outcomes • You assess clients' current IT landscape with depth and rigor, identifying gaps, improvement opportunities, and maturity levels across key IT enablers, and you tell clients what they need to hear, not just what they want to hear. • Strategy Development • You translate assessment findings into strategic roadmaps that are actionable, prioritized, and tied directly to business objectives; not generic frameworks dropped into a deck. • You define clear goals, milestones, and success criteria for every initiative, working with relevant Centers of Excellence to ensure there is accountability and measurable impact from day one. • You work alongside client leadership to define strategic IT priorities that are grounded in long-term vision, not short-term noise • Technology Evaluation • You know what's real and what's hype. You evaluate emerging tech trends with a critical eye, identifying where real opportunities for innovation and strategic investment exist for your clients. • You provide clear, opinionated guidance on technology adoption and implementation strategy, and you can articulate an architectural vision. • You help clients cut through the noise, evaluate platform and tooling options across foundation model providers, enterprise AI platforms, and MLOps infrastructure, and make sound build vs. buy vs. partner decisions. You help them develop an AI investment thesis that is grounded in their business context and tied to outcomes they can measure. • Business-IT Alignment • You bring business and IT into the same room and make sure they leave speaking the same language. You facilitate workshops that build genuine shared understanding of strategic objectives, not just surface-level agreement. • You break down silos. You drive collaboration and communication across departments so that IT initiatives are designed around business processes from the start, not bolted on after. • Cross-functional Collaboration • You don't operate in a silo. You actively collaborate across practices and teams to shape modernization strategies and roadmaps that are stronger for the input. Opportunity Development & Solutioning • You are as comfortable in a sales conversation as you are in a strategy workshop. You recognize opportunity signals when they surface in client engagements, and you know how to shape them into something real translating business and technology challenges into compelling, well-scoped solutions that clients want to buy. • You are comfortable shaping the approach, defining the scope, and articulating the value in a way that resonates with both executive sponsors and technical stakeholders. • You are fluent in the language of sales without being a traditional salesperson. You build trust first, and you use that trust to open doors, advance conversations, and bring the right TEKsystems capabilities to bear at the right moment. Capability Development: You will lead the development of offerings that meet clients where the market is actually going, not where it was. This means building and evolving practice capabilities across the full spectrum of enterprise transformation. You won't just maintain what exists; you will identify what's missing, build what's needed, and ensure our offerings stay sharp, differentiated, and ready to deploy at scale. • Technical Expertise: • You will leverage your in-depth expertise in Enterprise IT space, staying updated on the latest advancements on tools and services available in the market, and guiding the team in applying best practices to build offering that can be delivered to customer at scale. This includes deep fluency in AI/ML platforms, LLM-based architectures, agentic systems, and enterprise data and integration patterns that underpin scalable AI solutions. • Innovation and Best Practices: • You set the standard for how this practice thinks about transformation strategy and enterprise architecture - driving innovation, challenging stale approaches, and ensuring best practices are embedded in everything we build and deliver. Help clients build the organizational and technical foundations to move beyond proof-of-concept into something that actually scales and sticks. • AI is not a separate workstream; it runs through everything. You'll ensure AI strategy and best practices are woven into every capability we offer: discovery, assessment, road mapping, architecture, and operating model design. That means defining governance, building reference architectures that address data readiness, model selection, integration patterns, and responsible AI guardrails Qualifications • Education & Professional Experience • Bachelor’s degree in computer science, Information Technology, or related field. Advanced degrees (Master’s, Ph.D.) are preferred. • 10+ years relevant professional experience in strategic IT planning & designing • 5+ years' experience customer facing IT consulting and IT services organizations leading complex transformations Job Type & Location This is a Permanent position based out of Arlington, VA.
