Key responsibilities & impact

Act as a strategic trusted advisor to VP and C-suite-adjacent stakeholders, shaping multi-year technology roadmaps and enterprise decisioning strategies anchored on FICO platforms.
Lead the highest-complexity, highest-ambiguity engagements end-to-end — spanning architecture, operating model design, and commercial outcomes.
Build deep relationships with VP and executive-level stakeholders, driving consensus across organizational and geographic boundaries.
Serve as the senior cross-functional leader aligning Sales, Product, Engineering, Solution Support, Professional Services, and Partners around unified, long-term customer outcomes.
Influence the roadmap of FICO platforms by shaping investment themes, product direction, and key trade-offs across decisioning, fraud, analytics, and Intelligent Decisions.
Establish yourself as a widely recognized authority both internally and in the broader market, representing FICO at industry forums, customer summits, and executive briefings.

Demonstrated ability to design and govern multi-year technology roadmaps and platform adoption strategies that directly drive ARR expansion, renewal protection, and net-new product adoption across a portfolio of strategic accounts — not just individual engagements.
Proven ability to influence how FICO is positioned and adopted across segments, industries, or regions, shaping adoption patterns and architectural standards that scale beyond any single customer relationship.
Recognized internally and externally as a thought leader in decisioning, analytics, fraud, and platform modernization, with a strong track record of creating high-impact executive content and representing the organization at industry forums and customer summits.
Exceptional ability to align Sales, Product, Engineering, Professional Services, and Partners around unified strategic outcomes, simplifying complex, multi-dimensional challenges into clear, executable paths.
Ability to identify emerging market shifts and translate them into new adoption strategies, innovation opportunities, and long-term platform positioning, with a track record of contributing to product and roadmap direction at an early and influential stage.
Deep familiarity with enterprise-scale change management including guiding customers through complex, multi-year technical transformations such as platform migrations, cloud adoption programs, and regulatory compliance initiatives.
