About the Role

As a Technical Architect at Sciente, you will act as a trusted technical advisor, bridging the gap between high-level architectural strategy and hands-on execution for our strategic clients in Malaysia. Supporting a select portfolio of enterprise accounts, you will combine deep technical mastery with executive presence—equally confident presenting technology roadmaps to client CTOs in the boardroom as you are working alongside client engineers and administrators in the command line.

You will lead technical engagements, ensure successful platform adoption, and drive business transformation to support Sciente's expanding footprint in the region.
