Aperçu du poste En tant qu'Architecte Principal Data & IA au sein de l'équipe Global Data 360 Solutions, vous serez le visage technique de notre innovation. Il s'agit d'un rôle de spécialiste en pré-vente et évangélisation, conçu pour un visionnaire technique capable d'inspirer clients et partenaires. Vous ne vous contenterez pas de concevoir « le champ des possibles », mais vous garantirez également l'adoption et le passage à l'échelle de ces technologies, stimulant ainsi la consommation à long terme et le retour sur investissement (ROI). Responsabilités clés Évangélisation technique : Agir en tant que leader d'opinion, en présentant les capacités Data & IA de D360 aux décideurs (CXO), aux partenaires techniques et aux parties prenantes internes afin de dynamiser le marché. Pré-vente stratégique : Collaborer avec l'équipe commerciale pour mener des sessions de découverte, concevoir des architectures sur mesure et démontrer comment nos solutions d'IA répondent à des problématiques métier spécifiques. Intégration Salesforce : Diriger la stratégie technique pour les flux de travail Data et IA centrés sur Salesforce, en assurant une connectivité fluide et une création de valeur concrète. Prototypage rapide (PoC) : Créer et livrer des « Proof of Concepts » (preuves de concept) à fort impact qui prouvent la faisabilité technique et la valeur ajoutée en temps réel. Adoption et succès client : Au-delà de la vente initiale, vous agirez en tant que conseiller de confiance pour garantir que les clients et partenaires déploient avec succès la technologie, favorisant ainsi l'usage et la consommation de la plateforme sur le long terme. Accompagnement des partenaires : Former et soutenir notre écosystème de partenaires pour s'assurer qu'ils sont équipés pour déployer et mettre à l'échelle les solutions D360 efficacement. Qualifications et exigences Expertise Salesforce : Une expérience approfondie de la plateforme Salesforce est obligatoire. Vous devez maîtriser les structures de données Salesforce et les modèles d'intégration. Excellence en pré-vente : Expérience confirmée dans un rôle de pré-vente technique, d'évangéliste ou d'architecte de solutions, avec un historique de réussite dans la conclusion de contrats d'entreprise complexes. Maîtrise technique : Connaissance approfondie de la « stack » de données moderne (Snowflake, Databricks, AWS/Azure/GCP) et du déploiement IA/ML. Orientation client : Une attention particulière portée à la consommation et à l'usage — le succès à long terme du client vous importe autant que la conception technique initiale. Langues : Bilingue anglais et français. Vous devez être capable de mener des conversations de haut niveau et des ateliers techniques dans les deux langues. Lieu : Poste basé à Paris. Temps plein sur site. Compétences et certifications souhaitées Certification Salesforce : Au moins une certification active (ex: Data Cloud, Administrateur, Agentforce Legend) est fortement privilégiée.
