• Lead technical reviews and ensure solutions meet enterprise and industry standards
• Guide integration with cloud platforms, APIs, and enterprise data ecosystems

Client & Commercial Impact:

• Translate complex technical ideas into clear, actionable insights for clients and stakeholders
• Support pre sales through solution design, proposals, and client workshops
• Represent Kubrick externally through events, webinars, and thought leadership

Innovation:

• Stay ahead of trends in simulation, digital twins, and AI orchestration
• Drive experimentation in agent based modelling, simulation environments, and emergent behaviour
• Evaluate and prototype new tools, frameworks, and platforms

People & Capability Building:

• Mentor consultants across Applied and Core Practices
• Partner with Training to build learning pathways in simulation and digital twins
• Foster a culture of technical excellence and continuous learning

Governance & Risk:

• Help define standards with our Data & AI Governance team
• Ensure compliance with ethical, regulatory, and security requirements
• Contribute to responsible AI and autonomous systems frameworks

Essential

• Strong experience designing and delivering simulation or digital twin systems in production
• Deep understanding of simulation technologies, agent based modelling, and systems thinking
• Experience leading technical teams and engaging senior stakeholders
• Ability to clearly communicate complex concepts to non technical audiences
• Proficiency in Python; experience with cloud based architectures

Nice to have

• Experience with orchestration frameworks (e.g. LangChain, AutoGen, CrewAI)
• Familiarity with simulation tools such as AnyLogic, Simulink, Unity, or custom environments
• Exposure to AI driven business solutions (e.g. Copilot Agents)
• Advanced degree in a relevant technical discipline
