[Hiring] Technology Consultant, Cybersecurity and AI Security @EPAM Systems

Role Description

Technology Consultants are practitioner-led growth leaders responsible for expanding EPAM’s cybersecurity and AI security business within strategic institutional accounts. Working in partnership with BU Field Organizations, account teams, sales, alliances, solution leaders, and delivery teams, the Technology Consultant identifies and originates opportunities, develops executive client relationships, shapes differentiated solutions, and orchestrates complex pursuits from qualification through contract signature and transition into delivery.

Technology Consultants translate client priorities into actionable cybersecurity programs that connect strategy, engineering, and measurable business outcomes. This is not a traditional standalone sales role or a day-to-day delivery leadership position. Technology Consultants use their practitioner experience to establish trust, shape the right client solution, mobilize relevant EPAM capabilities, and remain engaged through delivery transition and account expansion.
