Digital Enterprise Architect Leader (Pre-sales)
Description
About Trianz:
Trianz is a leading-edge technology platforms and services company that accelerates digital transformations at Fortune 100 and emerging companies worldwide in data & analytics, digital experiences, cloud infrastructure, and security. The company’s “IP Led Transformations” vision, strategy, and business model are based on insights from a recent global study spanning 20+ industries and 5000+ companies worldwide.
Trianz believes that companies around the world face three challenges in their digital transformation journeys - shrinking ‘time to transform’ due to competition & AI, lack of digital-ready talent, and uncertain economic conditions. To help clients leapfrog over these challenges, Trianz has built IP and platforms that have transformed the adoption of the cloud, data, analytics & insights AI.
Specifically, the following Trianz platforms are changing the way companies approach transformations in various disciplines:
- Concierto: A fully automated platform to Migrate, Manage, and Maximize the multi & hybrid cloud. A zero code and SaaS platform, Concierto allows teams to migrate to AWS, Azure and GCP and manage them efficiently from a single pane of glass. Visit www.concierto.cloud for more information.
- Extrica Data to AI Platform: Built on the concept of ‘federated or distributed data’, Extrica revolutionizes how users access data anywhere in the company’s ecosystems; productizes data and makes it available in a Netflix like user experience while delivering BI and AI powered insights. Visit www.extrica.io for more.
- Pulse: Recognizing that workforces will be distributed, mobile, and fluid, Trianz has built a ‘future of work’ digital workplace platform called Pulse. Visit www.trianz.com/Pulse
Since the market launch of this strategy in mid-2023, Trianz has experienced enormous growth, success and recognition.
- Some of Trianz’ built IP in data and analytics was acquired by Amazon. Since then, Trianz has been made an engineering partner of Amazon for building/supporting connected ecosystems across multiple AWS platforms.
- Trianz Concierto cloud platform and Extrica Datamesh are gaining traction, winning over 2 dozen customers with 50+ customers and partners in the queue.
- As an AWS Premier level qualified partner, Trianz is building and delivering platforms and services that are disrupting industry value propositions.
At a time when the services industry is struggling with its ability to deliver value at a pace that Trianz demands, Trianz’ “IP Led Digital Transformation Services” business model and value proposition are changing the game for companies and cloud providers such as AWS, Azure, and GCP. Rated #1 by clients in value delivery 5 years in a row, Trianz will surpass industry growth rates by a wide margin in the coming years.
Trianz is led by Sri Manchala, a former special forces officer from the Indian army and author on digital leadership (Crossing the Digital Faultline | Trianz), and a team of veterans from well-known firms such as Deloitte, HCL, KPMG, Wipro, Microsoft, AWS, GE, etc.
Given its above industry growth and demands, Trianz has recently raised private equity capital to scale the company over the next several years (Trianz Announces Strategic Growth Capital Investment by Capital Square Partners (prnewswire.com) ). Trianz is now seeking to bolster its senior and mid-level leadership with top talent across GTM, Engineering, Services, and Partnership organizations. We are seeking leaders driven by our purpose - to help accelerate digital transformations - and motivated to change the way our industry delivers value.
Role: Director - Digital Enterprise Architect
Location: Remote (Anywhere in the US)
Type: Full time
About the Role:
Digital Transformation is the reimagination of products, services, and value propositions from a customer point of view; and the reinvention of experiences delivered to all stakeholders- internal and external. Solutioning, architecting, designing, and delivering digital products and solutions that can truly elevate and transform enterprise productivity is therefore essential as organizations charter their digital transformation journey. Success in the age of digital disruption will belong to companies that digitize their core business applications, launch new business models, and apply state-of-the-art technologies—activities that are possible only with sophisticated and modernized IT infra, application, and well-coordinated technology teams.
