Field CTO

• Sandy Springs, GA - Remote (any location)

Aimpoint Digital is a market-leading data, AI, and analytics consulting firm. We help organizations design, build, and operationalize modern data platforms, analytics solutions, and production AI applications.

We work across Databricks, Snowflake, Anthropic, and other leading platforms, and we are expanding our pre-sales solutions organization. We are seeking a Field CTO to help shape and win complex data and AI consulting engagements.

As Field CTO, you will build deep client relationships and own the technical portion of the sales cycle end-to-end for our largest and most strategic opportunities, from initial discovery through solution design, scoping, proposal development, technical validation, and handoff to delivery. You will also act as the senior technical voice with executive clients, helping them decide where and how to invest in data and AI.

You will partner directly with our key clients, as well as with sales, alliance, and delivery teams to understand client needs, design the right technical solution, and translate that solution into a credible and executable consulting engagement.

This role is designed for someone who has done similar work in a consulting or professional services environment. You know how to move from an ambiguous client problem to a clear architecture, delivery approach, team structure, estimate, and statement of work. You are also comfortable working above the level of a single project, defining roadmaps for strategic transformation programs at Fortune 500 clients.

You will work across platform deployment and infrastructure, migrations, data engineering, data science, AI, and the human interfaces on top of them, including BI tools, custom applications, and bidirectional integrations with SaaS platforms. Your technical depth should be strongest in data and platform engineering, with a strong understanding of how modern data architectures support downstream analytics and AI.

You will be expected to define solutions on any platform we work with. Cloud provider solutions on AWS, Azure and GCP, Data platforms including Databricks, Snowflake, AI and ML implementations leveraging Anthropic and OpenAI, and front end facing tools like Sigma, Omni, and other BI tools.
