Fractal is a strategic AI partner to Fortune 500 companies, with a bold vision: to power every human decision in the enterprise. We believe the future belongs to organizations that combine human imagination with intelligent systems—and Fractalites are the ones building that future. As we scale our Technology, Media & Telecom (TMT) practice in the United States, we are looking for a senior, client-facing Head of Engineering to shape and deliver world-class Data & AI platforms for leading Technology, Media & Telecom organizations.
This is not a back-office engineering role. This is a consulting-led, client-facing engineering leadership position for someone who is equally comfortable whiteboarding architecture with principal engineers, rolling up their sleeves with delivery teams, and advising CIOs, CTOs, and CDOs in the boardroom.
Learn more at Fractal | Intelligence for Imagination.
Note: This position is not eligible for Immigration Sponsorship at this time.
About the Role
This is a four-axis leadership role requiring technical depth, executive presence, team leadership, and embedded delivery. You'll work directly with top technical and functional leaders at some of the largest TMT companies in the world.
As Head of Engineering for Fractal's Technology, Media & Telecom (TMT) vertical, you will personally shape the architecture of mission-critical AIML platforms, often in first-party tech stack, and develop/drive the team of ICs who bring them to life.
Responsibilities
Some engagements will look like a traditional advisory model. Others will look a lot more like Forward Deployed Engineering: your team embedded inside a client's engineering org, working within their first-party tech stack, shipping production code alongside their engineers, and earning influence through technical credibility, not org chart position.
You will need to be in the room when the technology roadmap needs to change. When a business pivot, a new regulation, or a technology shift forces a rethink mid-execution, you are the person who picks up the marker, walks to the whiteboard, and redraws the architecture in real time, credibly, for the CTO, and Principal Engineering leaders simultaneously.
Technical Depth (Hands-On Architecture)
- Own AI/Data platform architecture decisions — from Lakehouse design and real-time streaming to MLOps, LLMOps, and AgentOps pipelines in production
- Serve as the technical authority for Fractal's TMT engineering practice — defining standards, reviewing design, and holding the bar on reliability, scalability, and security
- Translate ambiguous business problems into concrete, buildable platform architectures — and stay close enough to execution to know when something is not working
- Drive the industrialization of GenAI: moving clients from proof-of-concept to enterprise-grade, governed, and observable AI systems
Executive Presence & Live Architectural Thinking
- Command the room with senior client leadership — CIOs, CTOs, CDOs, and their direct reports - as a peer, not a vendor
- Whiteboard new architectural directions on the spot: when a business pivot, acquisition, regulatory shift, or technology breakthrough forces a mid-execution rethink, you synthesize it into a credible, buildable path forward live, in the room, without needing a week to prepare a deck
- Translate between two worlds simultaneously: make the architecture legible to a CFO and rigorous enough to satisfy a principal engineer in the same session
- Shape client roadmaps at the strategic level; identifying where the current plan is under-ambitious, over-engineered, or misaligned with emerging AI capabilities, and steering accordingly
- Represent Fractal at the highest level of client relationship
Team Leadership (Building & Driving Senior ICs)
- Develop and lead a high-performing group of individual contributors. principally senior and staff engineers, ML engineers, and data platform engineers
- Create the engineering culture: rigorous delivery standards, architectural thinking, and a bias toward elegant, production-grade solutions over quick fixes
- Build leadership depth within the team, identifying principals who can own programs and grow into broader roles
- Partner across Fractal's global AI and engineering Capability functions to staff programs strategically and raise capability across the TMT practice
Forward-Deployed & Embedded Delivery
- Lead and run FDE-style engagements where your team operates inside the client's engineering environment
- Navigate and deliver within client-owned, first-party technology stacks: proprietary data platforms, internal ML infrastructure, custom orchestration systems, and bespoke toolchains that do not appear in any industry survey
- Adapt quickly to non-standard environments, understanding a client's internal platform deeply enough to extend it, integrate into it, and earn the trust of their engineering staff
- Balance the tension between what Fractal does best and what the client's stack demands, knowing when to bring pattern, when to adapt, and when to advocate for a better path
- Set the standards for how Fractal operates in deeply embedded engagements: how we onboard, document, transfer knowledge, and leave clients stronger than we found them
Candidate Profile
Technical Qualifications
TMT clients bring genuinely hard problems on both open and proprietary infrastructure. Expect to architect and oversee:
- GenAI systems: RAG architectures, LLM fine-tuning pipelines, agentic workflow orchestration, and LLMOps observability
- AI-powered products: personalization engines, churn prediction, content recommendation, and network fault detection
- Client-proprietary ML infrastructure: internal feature stores, custom model serving layers, bespoke experiment tracking systems, and first-party orchestration frameworks
- Cloud-native infrastructure across AWS, Azure, and GCP with enterprise-grade governance, security, and compliance baked in
- Real-time and event driven data pipelines (e.g. network telemetry)
- Modern Lakehouse platforms (Databricks, Snowflake, Delta Lake, Iceberg) at petabyte scale and proprietary data platform equivalents at leading tech-forward TMT organizations
Non-technical Qualifications
We are particularly interested in leaders from environments where engineering rigor, client accountability, executive presence, and AI depth all coexist including Forward Deployed Engineering, elite data/ML platform teams, and senior hyperscaler architecture practices.
- 15–20 years of experience spanning AI/data engineering and technical leadership with clear evidence of owning architecture at scale
- Deep hands-on experience deploying AI/ML/GenAI systems in production, in addition to advising on them
- Demonstrated executive presence: you have walked into a CTO or CDO review, redrawn the architecture based on new constraints, and left the room with alignment
- The ability to whiteboard fluently under pressure, synthesizing a team's in-flight work with a new business direction, making it rigorous enough for engineers and clear enough for executives, on the spot and without a rehearsal
- Experience operating within client-owned or non-standard technology stacks - you have learned a proprietary system, earned trust from skeptical internal engineers, and delivered production-grade results inside someone else's infrastructure
- A track record of leading senior engineers and building high-performance ML/engineering teams, including hiring, coaching, and developing principal-level ICs
- Direct executive engagement experience - you have influenced CIO/CTO/CDO decisions and can hold your own in a room with technical and non-technical stakeholders at once
- Strong cloud-native fluency across one or more hyperscalers, with genuine depth in data platform patterns (streaming, batch, Lakehouse, governance)
Strong Preferences
- Experience in TMT vertical — hi-tech, telco, media platforms, streaming infrastructure, ad tech, or content delivery at scale
- Prior work in FDE-style or embedded delivery models where your team shipped inside a client codebase and was evaluated by their engineering standards, not just deliverable milestones
- Comfort with the ambiguity of 1P stack environments: you have debugged undocumented internal tools, extended proprietary frameworks, and figured out how to make external expertise land inside a closed ecosystem
- A personal reputation for architectural clarity: the person colleagues call when a problem needs to be drawn, not just describe
- Contributions to the ML/AI community: open source, publications, conference talks, or influential architectural patterns
Who Thrives Here
The Fractalite mindset is curious, rigorous, and impact driven. You will thrive in this role if you:
- Enjoy being client-facing and accountable for outcomes.
- Are comfortable navigating ambiguity, scale, and complex stakeholder environments.
- Believe great platforms come from strong engineering culture plus disciplined execution.
- See AI not as a novelty, but as a core enterprise capability that must be engineered responsibly.

Location: Remote: Reside close to (Exton, PA)
Portfolio: Allen‑Sherman‑Hoff (ASH) Engineered Material‑Handling Systems (ANDRITZ)
About the Role
Allen‑Sherman‑Hoff (ASH), an ANDRITZ business, delivers engineered material‑handling systems that support power generation, biomass, and pulp & paper facilities operating in demanding, continuous‑run environments. Although ASH is technically an OEM, we operate far more like an A&E/EPC engineering firm: we deliver system‑level engineered solutions, integrating ASH proprietary equipment with structural, mechanical, electrical, and quality requirements to meet strict performance expectations.
We are seeking a Project Manager with power, energy, utilities, or EPC/A&E engineered‑systems project experience, someone who has led large, customer‑facing technical projects through engineering, fabrication, manufacturing, quality, and site support.
If your background is in internal manufacturing operations, IT/telecom deployments, or continuous improvement, this role is not a match. We need a PM who understands industrial plant environments, engineered equipment, and the rigor of technical project delivery.
What You Will Do
Lead Full Lifecycle Execution (Sales Handover → Final Turnover)
- Own the delivery of engineered ASH material‑handling systems across power, biomass, and pulp & paper facilities.
- Drive engineering, drafting, and calculation packages to meet scope, schedule, and contractual requirements.
- Coordinate and unblock fabrication/manufacturing, ensuring manufacturability and compliance.
- Manage supplier RFQs, subcontractor performance, expediting, and logistics.
Quality & Technical Documentation Leadership
- Manage ITPs, weld maps, NDE requirements, pressure tests, dimensional checks, and documentation packages essential to engineered‑equipment delivery.
- Validate compliance to ASME/AWS, customer specifications, and ASH quality standards.
Schedule, Cost, and Risk Management
- Maintain schedule baselines using Primavera P6.
- Oversee cost performance, margin drivers, change control, and contract compliance.
- Identify and mitigate technical and execution risks early.
Customer‑Facing Project Leadership
- Serve as the primary interface between the customer and ANDRITZ technical teams.
- Prepare and deliver technical and commercial progress reports.
- Support site activities (FAT, readiness reviews, installation coordination, commissioning support).
What You Bring
Required
- Experience in A&E/EPC, power generation, utilities, or industrial engineered‑systems delivery.
- (Examples: material handling, conveying systems, rotating equipment, mechanical process systems, boiler/balance‑of‑plant equipment).
- Proven ability to lead engineering‑heavy, customer‑facing projects with strict contractual and QA requirements.
- Hands‑on coordination with engineering, fabrication, manufacturing, quality, suppliers, and field service.
- Experience managing ITPs, weld maps, NDE, pressure tests, QA documentation, and technical turnover packages.
- Proficiency in Primavera P6 and Oracle or similar ERP.
- Bachelor’s degree in Engineering/Construction Management OR 5+ years of relevant engineered‑systems PM experience.
Preferred
- Power plant, utilities, biomass, or pulp & paper industry experience.
- Background in ash handling, bulk material handling, or mechanical systems integration.
- PMP or CAPM certification.
- Experience with retrofit, outage, upgrade, or brownfield scopes.
Work Model
- Remote with periodic travel to Exton, PA, fabrication shops, and customer facilities for inspections, FATs, readiness reviews, and site support.
- Travel expected but varies by project phase.
Why This Role Matters
Your work directly affects the reliability, uptime, and environmental performance of major industrial facilities. When you execute well, a power plant runs cleaner, a pulp mill avoids downtime, and a customer sees ASH as a trusted engineering partner. This is real engineering impact, not back‑office project tracking.
