Join our mission to make processes work for people, companies, and the planet. Are you a digital transformation leader ready to architect the AI-driven future of the Banking sector? This is not a standard process optimization role. We are looking for a Lead Value Engineer to own customer success and drive high-stakes SaaS and AI adoption across top-tier global financial institutions and regional banking enterprise accounts. You will serve as the strategic bridge—translating complex financial and operational needs into technical strategy. As a trusted advisor to C-suite executives (CRO, CIO, CFO, Head of Retail/Wholesale Banking), you will blend deep banking DNA with elite management consulting and an AI-first mindset to realize maximum customer value. The Impact You Will Drive • Value Architecture: Translate executive banking priorities into high-impact AI use cases (e.g., intelligent credit underwriting, automated fraud mitigation, hyper-personalized wealth advisory) and Value Realization Frameworks. • Solution Blueprints: Architect scalable, end-to-end data flows to resolve complex operational bottlenecks across legacy core banking platforms, payment rails, and loan origination pipelines. • Financial Quantification: Build data-backed business cases driving $10M+ in OPEX savings, risk reduction, or net-new revenue generation. • Executive Advisory: Deliver high-stakes value narratives to C-suite stakeholders and G-SIB (Global Systemically Important Banks) leadership to accelerate software adoption pipelines. • Process Transformation: Automate complex front-to-back office workflows (e.g., institutional onboarding, trade lifecycle management) using Lean or Six Sigma methodologies while maintaining bulletproof audit trails. • Lifecycle Management: Own the end-to-end customer value journey from technical discovery and proof-of-concept pilots through to impactful Quarterly Business Reviews (QBRs). Who You Are: The Ideal Background You are a strategic leader with 7-10 years of experience navigating unstructured enterprise problems. To be successful in this role, you must possess a hybrid background that bridges institutional financial services and elite business strategy. We are looking for candidates who fit one of the following exact trajectories: • The Banker turned Consultant: You began your career in risk management, capital markets, or retail/commercial banking operations at a major financial institution, and subsequently pivoted into Management Consulting, Strategy, or SaaS Value Engineering. • The Consultant turned Banking Digital Strategist: You began your career at an MBB, Big 4, or elite tech consultancy, built a deep portfolio of quantified business cases in digital transformation, and subsequently specialized heavily within Retail Banking, Commercial Banking, or FinTech. The Non-Negotiables • Value-Led Consulting: Proven track record in consultative value-selling, value engineering, or account strategy for enterprise SaaS digital transformations. • Next-Gen Tech Fluency: Functional understanding of Generative AI, process mining, and their intersection
