We move at startup speed inside a global platform, and we're scaling fast. This is a founding team; these first hires will shape the culture, the systems, and the trajectory of the work we are doing.

  • Accelerate AI-assisted sales pursuits — helping sales teams win faster with AI-generated content, live demo agents, and intelligent presentation assets
  • Serve as an Anthropic / AI coding agent SME across internal teams and client-facing engagements
  • Partner with solution architects, sales, and delivery teams to embed AI across the Accenture-Oracle alliance

  • Minimum of 1 year of experience with hybrid retrieval systems — vector search, knowledge graphs, or structured search pipelines — and an understanding of context engineering as the layer that makes agents reliable
  • Minimum of 1 year of hands-on experience building and deploying agentic AI systems — Claude/Anthropic, or equivalent
  • Experience with Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers, agentic harness frameworks, or tool-use orchestration
  • Experience designing evaluation frameworks or quality gates for AI system output
  • Proven ability to translate complex AI concepts for both technical and non-technical audiences

Nice to Have

  • Functional Oracle knowledge — EPM, ERP, or OCI
  • Experience with agentic harness frameworks
  • Pre-sales, sales solutioning, or client-facing delivery background
  • Startup, entrepreneurial, design or product-led environment experience
  • Consulting or professional services background in large-scale digital transformation
