About The Position

Perficient is building an AI-First Marketing & Engagement practice from scratch—one designed around the premise that agentic AI, intelligent automation, and model-driven personalization are fundamentally changing how enterprise marketing technology gets designed, delivered, and operated. This is the technical strategy lead for our largest OEM client relationship: a major enterprise account spanning marketing technology, customer experience, and digital platform work across multiple business units, workstreams, and partner co-delivery motions.

Reporting to the VP, you’ll own the architecture vision, the solution roadmap, and the commercial growth strategy for the account. The role is part Solutions Architect, part Technical Account Strategist, part Practice Builder - you’ll be the senior technical voice the client’s IT leadership, marketing technology teams, and business stakeholders turn to when they need to understand what’s possible, what’s smart, and what to build next - including how AI reshapes the answer to each of those questions.

This is an AVP-level role for someone who has shaped the multi-year technology direction of a major account, influenced seven-figure-plus engagements, and operated at the level where their recommendations directly affect a client’s investment decisions. The practice is being built from scratch, the playbook doesn’t exist yet, and the person in this seat will define what AI-first technical strategy looks like at Perficient, on this account and beyond it.

Perficient is the global AI and technology consulting firm disrupting the traditional consulting model. Powered by our 7,000+ advisors, engineers, and designers, Perficient implements AI-first solutions that break conventions and deliver outcomes that matter. Proudly serving clients that represent the world’s most innovative brands, and in collaboration with our powerful technology partner ecosystem, we bring deep industry expertise and data-driven design to redefine how businesses run and succeed. Perficient is different. For real. Learn more at perficient.com.
