This is a hands-on, high-impact role for a technical leader who thrives in ambiguous environments and wants to define how industrial enterprises adopt intelligence at scale.

• Strong technical foundation in: Cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP) and hybrid architectures.
• Enterprise integration patterns (APIs, microservices, event-driven systems).
• Data engineering concepts (ETL pipelines, data lakes, real-time streaming).
• Experience with: AI/ML workflows, including LLMs (Large Language Models), VLMs (Vision-Language Models), and Computer Vision systems.
• Model deployment and MLOps for production environments.
• Design and engineering software such as CAD tools (AutoCAD, SolidWorks), Bluebeam, and similar platforms for industrial workflows.
• Comfort with containerization and orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes).
• Ability to design and map complex architectures, including multi-service systems with clear data flows, scalability, and fault tolerance.
• Understanding of security and compliance for industrial environments (network segmentation, identity management).
• Strong communicator with presence across both technical and executive audiences.
• Comfortable in early-stage, fast-moving environments with evolving processes.
• Ability to travel for onsite discovery, workshops, and customer meetings.

Responsibilities

• Customer Discovery & Strategy Conduct immersive discovery sessions with operators, engineers, and executives across industrial environments.

• Communicate Nexxa’s solution capabilities, architectural approach, and delivery methodology.

• Collaborate with engineering to ensure discovery insights translate into executable build plans.
• Support customers through architecture, scoping, and early delivery planning.
