We embrace all candidates that will contribute to the diversification and enrichment of ideas and perspectives at AHEAD.

This leadership role within the Modern Apps practice focuses on guiding clients through greenfield application development and application modernization initiatives, with a strong emphasis on technical leadership, architectural judgment, and delivery execution. The ideal candidate will bring deep expertise in modern application architectures, cloud-native technologies, and modernization strategies, while leading engagements from strategy through implementation and solution delivery.
