  • Support NTT DATA’s Microsoft Advanced Specialisation and Solutions Partner designations through deal registration, ACE nominations, and reference architectures
  • Stay current on Azure product roadmap, pricing changes, and competitive positioning versus AWS/GCP
  • Contribute to thought leadership content, webinars, and industry events to build NTT DATA’s Azure and DC Exit brand in the market
  • Delivery Enablement: Ensure smooth presales-to-delivery handoff with complete solution documentation, architecture decision records, and risk registers
  • Mentor and upskill delivery teams on Azure migration tooling (Azure Migrate, Azure Site Recovery, Database Migration Service)
  • Build reusable IP including migration playbooks, assessment templates, and reference architectures for common DC exit patterns

Requirements

  • 15+ years of experience in IT infrastructure, cloud consulting, or presales roles with a strong focus on Microsoft Azure
  • Demonstrated experience in Data Centre Exit / DC migration projects end-to-end, from assessment through cutover and decommission
  • Deep understanding of Azure core services: Compute, Networking, Storage, Identity (Entra ID), Security (Defender for Cloud, Sentinel), and governance (Azure Policy, Management Groups)
  • Proficiency with Azure migration and modernisation tools: Azure Migrate, Azure Site Recovery, Database Migration Service, App Service Migration Assistant
  • Strong experience building TCO models, business cases, and commercial proposals for enterprise and public sector clients
  • Excellent presentation and communication skills with a track record of leading C-level workshops and technical deep-dives

  • Exposure to adjacent Microsoft workloads: Microsoft 365, Copilot, Power Platform, or Data & AI (Fabric, Databricks on Azure)
  • FinOps or Azure Cost Management experience for post-migration consumption optimisation

What we offer

  • A strategic role at the intersection of cloud transformation and AI innovation within one of the world’s largest IT services companies
  • Direct exposure to marquee enterprise and public sector accounts across Singapore and Southeast Asia
  • Close collaboration with Microsoft’s field teams and access to partner programmes, training, and co-sell incentives
  • Opportunity to shape NTT DATA’s Azure and DC Exit practice from the ground up, with a path to leadership
