About One ByZero

One ByZero is a Frontier Systems Integrator building agentic AI systems for leading banks, telecommunications companies, insurers, and retailers across Asia Pacific. We work on high-impact problems for institutions operating the financial and digital infrastructure of the region.

We operate exclusively on AWS and leverage partnership programmes that provide co-sell reach, funded innovation opportunities, and delivery credibility across multiple markets. We value individuals who are technically strong, delivery-focused, collaborative, and committed to solving complex engineering challenges.

The Role

/n

The Data Practice Lead owns the technical vision, capability building, and presales strategy for OBZ's Data practice — anchoring large-scale opportunities and ensuring what's sold can be delivered.

/n

This is a hands-on leadership role: you'll architect and steer data platforms on AWS, build and scale engineering teams, and be the technical face of the practice in front of clients and senior stakeholders.

/n

What You Will Do

/n

/n

- Practice Leadership – Define the roadmap for OBZ's Data practice, tracking market trends and emerging technologies.

/n

- Platform & Architecture – Architect and oversee data engineering platforms — ingestion, warehousing, and lakehouse — on AWS.

/n

- Team Building – Hire, mentor, and scale a high-performing data engineering team; build a culture of quality, automation, and ownership.

/n

- Innovation & Offerings – Build differentiated solution offerings, use cases, and capability decks that position OBZ as a credible data engineering player.





/n

- Asset Creation – Build reusable frameworks, accelerators, and an internal knowledge base from past projects.

/n

- Solution Architecture – Partner with presales/account leads on medium-to-large opportunities; turn data strategy into proposal narratives.

/n

- Bid Strategy – Own end-to-end proposal development for data-centric RFIs/RFPs.

/n

- Executive Facilitation – Lead client-facing strategy sessions covering solution, delivery approach, and commercial terms.

/n

- Cross-Functional Alignment – Be the bridge between Sales and Delivery — make sure sold scope is deliverable.

/n

- Strong grounding in Dev SecOps practices and enterprise data governance (MDM, data quality, cataloging).

/n

- Proven presales experience — RFP/RFI response, solutioning, and CxO-level client engagement.

/n

- Advanced Google Workspace, Power Point, and Excel.

/n

hands-on AWS experience across large-scale data platforms.

What Success Looks Like

/n

- The Data practice has a clear roadmap, reusable assets, and a growing bench of strong engineers.

/n

- Presales cycles you own convert into signed, deliverable engagements.
