Senior Staff Engineer - Strategy Lead, New Business & Growth

Company Description

We are a Digital Product Engineering company that is scaling in a big way! We build products, services, and experiences that inspire, excite, and delight. We work at scale — across all devices and digital mediums, and our people exist everywhere in the world (18000+ experts across 40 countries, to be exact). Our work culture is dynamic and non-hierarchical. We are looking for great new colleagues. That is where you come in!

Job Description

This is a new role on a new team. We are building a small, senior New Business & Growth practice inside Product Studio.

Your job is to help Nagarro win work by crafting the narratives, strategies, and proposals that make clients say yes.

The problems you solve are strategic and creative.

A client issues an RFP or signals an opportunity. The brief is often ambiguous. You figure out what they actually need, develop the strategic angle, shape the story, integrate an AI and product perspective, direct the visual language, and deliver a proposal that stands apart from the competition.

Some days you are deep in a client’s industry, identifying the real problem behind their stated requirements. Other days you are structuring a narrative arc across a 60-page proposal. Other days you are collaborating with AI practitioners, solution architects, and delivery leads to translate complex capabilities into something a CEO can believe in.

This is not a traditional proposal management or bid coordination role. It is a strategy, narrative, and design thinking role applied to how Nagarro competes for new business.

The core of the job: turn ambiguous opportunities into compelling, differentiated proposals that win.

What You’ll Do

• Develop narrative strategies for pursuits, RFPs, and proactive proposals that differentiate Nagarro in competitive evaluations.
• Help clients identify opportunities at the intersection of business, technology, and AI before they know how to ask for them.
• Shape product and design strategy within proposals, grounding every pitch in credible, specific thinking about how things should be built.
• Translate complex AI and technology capabilities into clear stories that connect to client problems and business outcomes.
• Contribute to standing up AI-native teams at Nagarro, shaping how those teams are positioned and sold.
• Build reusable narrative frameworks, case study assets, and pitch patterns that raise the quality bar across pursuits.
• Use AI as a core part of your own workflow: research, synthesis, drafting, analysis.
• Help define and evolve the methods, templates, and standards for the New Business & Growth practice

Qualifications

• The ability to take an ambiguous brief and turn it into a compelling, structured proposal narrative without being told how.
• Strong product and design sensibility. You can speak credibly about how things should be built, not just how they should be described.
• Business consulting instincts. You understand client problems at a strategic level and can frame solutions in terms of outcomes, not deliverables.
• Written and visual communication that is clear, precise, and persuasive. You are as comfortable writing a strategy narrative as you are directing a slide deck.
• Fluency in AI as a strategic lens. Not as an engineer, but as someone who understands how AI reshapes products, services, and organizations, and can weave that perspective naturally into proposals.
• Comfort with ambiguity. Pitch work rarely comes with perfect briefs. AI is a fast-moving space where the right answer is still being invented. You find that energizing, not paralyzing.
• Self-direction. You thrive with autonomy, deadlines, and creative freedom. You do outstanding work without needing some…
