Responsibilties and Requirements
About the Role
At Dun & Bradstreet, data is not just an asset—it is the context layer that powers intelligent decision-making. As our AI Solution Architect in Hong Kong, you will be a Forward Deployed Engineer who sit at the intersection of D&B’s global data network, cutting-edge AI infrastructure, and the real-world systems of largest enterprises.
This is not a back-office engineering role. You and your team will be embedded with clients—from multinational banks and Fortune 500 manufacturers to cross-border trade platforms—to architect, deploy, and operationalize AI solutions that integrate D&B’s proprietary commercial data directly into their ERP, CRM, SCM, and risk management systems.
You will operate in one of the world’s most regulated financial centers, solving high-stakes problems where data privacy, cross-border compliance, and real-time business intelligence converge.
What You’ll Do
Own End-to-End AI Deployment
- Scope, architect, and deliver production-grade AI solutions (RAG pipelines, Agent workflows, predictive analytics) using D&B data assets and client infrastructure.
- Operate in 6–12 week timeboxes, moving from ambiguous business requirements to working prototypes that demonstrate measurable ROI.
Be the Technical-Strategic Bridge
- Serve as the senior technical counterpart to C-suite, VP, and Head of Data stakeholders at client organizations.
- Translate complex engineering trade-offs into CFO- and CIO-ready business cases—covering revenue impact, cost reduction, and risk mitigation.
Ensure Enterprise-Grade Compliance
- Guarantee all deployments meet SOC 2, ISO 27001, and regional regulatory standards including China PIPL, Hong Kong PDPO, and financial services sector requirements.
- Navigate cross-border data governance with rigor—D&B’s credibility depends on it.
Drive Product-Market Feedback Loops
- Channel live client insights back to D&B’s Product and AI Labs teams to refine our data APIs, model performance, and vertical-specific solutions.
Who You Are
Engineering Depth
- 7+ years of product-grade software engineering experience (Python, SQL, Java/Go preferred).
- Proven expertise in cloud infrastructure (AWS/Azure/GCP), data pipelines (Airflow, Spark), and enterprise system integration (SAP, Salesforce, Snowflake, etc.).
- Hands-on experience with the modern GenAI stack: LLMs, vector databases, retrieval architecture, fine-tuning (LoRA), and Agent frameworks (LangChain, LangGraph, DSPy).
Client-Facing Leadership
- 3+ years in consulting, solutions engineering, or client-embedded technical roles.
- A track record of delivering AI/ML projects in production within regulated industries (financial services, credit risk, supply chain, or trade finance highly preferred).
- Demonstrated ability to manage stakeholder complexity and navigate organizational politics to ship outcomes—what we call High Agency.
Strategic & Commercial Acumen
- Comfortable discussing P&L impact, data monetization strategy, and competitive positioning with senior executives.
- Experience building and scaling technical teams in a high-growth or transformation environment.
Language & Compliance
- Business fluency in English and Mandarin (written and spoken). Cantonese is a strong plus.
- Working knowledge of data privacy, security frameworks (SOC 2, FedRAMP, HIPAA), and APAC regulatory landscapes.
Nice-to-Have
- Prior experience at top-tier consulting firms, or AI-native enterprises with embedded deployment models.
- Deep domain expertise in commercial credit data, supply chain risk, KYB/KYC workflows, or trade intelligence.
- Published work, conference speaking, or open-source contributions in applied AI or data engineering.
