Senior Technical Consultant

Job Description

• Clearly communicate scope, assumptions, and risk to both technical and executive audiences
• Design Azure and Microsoft platform solutions spanning application modernization, data platforms, AI/ML, and Copilot/Fabric workloads
• Analyze client application and data estates; develop transformation roadmaps and next-generation architecture
• Produce solution architecture documentation covering key technical decisions and implementation approach
• Participate in solution design reviews and contribute technical oversight across active engagements
• Support development efforts and help resolve technical challenges within the team
• Share expertise with EPAM engineers and contribute to raising technical standards across the practice
• Stay current on Microsoft platform developments and bring emerging capabilities into client conversations
• Actively contribute to EPAM's knowledge base and internal communities around the Microsoft ecosystem

Requirements

• Strong expertise in Azure and the broader Microsoft platform across application modernization, data and analytics, and AI/ML workloads

• Familiarity with Agile delivery practices and DevOps tooling (IaC, CI/CD, automated deployment)
• Excellent communication skills — able to translate complex technical concepts into business language
• Background in large-scale software development or data engineering to credibly contribute to technical conversations on either side
