Lead Enterprise AI Architect – Private & Sovereign AI
About NTT DATA
NTT DATA is a global IT services and consulting company helping organizations transform their businesses through technology, innovation, and data-driven solutions. As part of a global technology organization, NTT DATA combines international expertise with strong local capabilities to deliver secure, scalable, and business-focused solutions to enterprise customers.
About the Team
We are building a new Private AI / Sovereign AI team focused on positioning, designing, demonstrating, and implementing next-generation enterprise AI platforms and solutions. Our vision is to design, scale, demonstrate, and deliver enterprise AI platforms that provide the foundation for a growing portfolio of AI services and solutions.
The team will work closely with NTT Hungary’s Data Center, Customer Experience, and Networking business areas, developing AI capabilities that can be integrated into existing enterprise environments and services — from contact centers and text-to-speech solutions to broader AI-powered business applications.
Given that the position is part of the Hungarian subsidiary/organizational unit, and that the role supports medium and large corporations, as well as Hungarian state-owned enterprises, fluent knowledge of both Hungarian and English, as well as a location in Hungary—preferably Pest County/Budapest—is essential
