Job Description

Digital Transformation is hiring a Board-Level Data Infrastructure Advisor to take on a senior mandate within Big Data Engineering, operating in a digital transformation function helping legacy processes catch up to modern technology. This is a role for someone who is expected to spend 10-14 years building credibility and, over time, own outcomes rather than just tasks.

The mandate centres on big data engineering, and the person in this seat will be expected to bring depth in Change Management, Technology Roadmap Planning, Vendor Coordination, Process Digitization, Data-driven Decision Making, while also operating comfortably with ambiguity — senior roles here rarely come with a fully written playbook.

Cross-functional collaboration is baked into how the team operates, so strong communication skills matter as much as technical ones. High performers in this role typically move into a broader or more senior position within 18-24 months.

On the qualifications side, we're looking at MBA (Strategy/Technology Management) (preferred) as a baseline, though what matters more at this level is a demonstrated track record rather than the credential itself.

The team culture leans collaborative and fairly informal, with an emphasis on ownership over hierarchy.

Compensation for this position is ₹24.3 - ₹35.7 LPA, commensurate with experience, for a Contract engagement based out of Chennai. If you think you're a strong fit, go ahead and apply — we'd rather hear from you than miss you.
