Does tech consulting experience help me get a job at big tech or AI companies?

Im no MBB so sexy tech roles (product, partnerships, strategy etc) are reach. My background sits in lot of tech stuff (enterprise architrcture, poc planning , BP reengineering, AI transformation)

Do tech companies doing lot of B2B stuff with AI deployment etc value this kind of exp? I keep seeing more roles with solution engineering/architect, forward deployed engineer etc.. heard these roles are quite valued

None of that except for product roles are “sexy”. MBB or consultants rarely get tech product roles. Tech roles are sexy in tech companies, not making slides . You have listed a lot of buzzwords as your experience. Drill it down to what exactly you want to do and your actual technical skills

A lot of tech companies have consulting services. So yes, you can join those. Project management should be relatively easier

All the major tech companies have their own in-house consulting services doing the exact same things we do in tech consulting, just hyper-specialized for their own product. I’ll have to warn you though, it’s the same work.
