NTT Data AIVista launches in Silicon Valley

NTT Data, a Tokyo-based IT consulting firm, has launched NTT Data AIVista, a wholly owned subsidiary focusing on scaling AI-native businesses at NTT Data’s operating companies.

The company, which is based in Silicon Valley, will combine NTT Data’s consulting and engineering resources with cutting-edge AI technologies to help NTT Data operating companies launch and scale AI businesses. It will also help develop AI-related services for NTT Data clients.

NTT Data AIVista will be led by Bratin Saha, PhD. The Silicon Valley-based technology executive joins from Digital Ocean, where he spent the last year as chief product and technology officer.

Saha brings more than 20 years of leadership experience in AI, infrastructure, platforms, and solutions. Between 2018 and 2024, Saha was a vice president at Amazon Web Services, where he served as general manager for AI, machine learning, and data infrastructure.

Before that, he spent two years with Nvidia, where he was vice president leading software infrastructure for all product lines. Earlier in his career, Saha spent 14 years with Intel, where he was senior director for software development.

He holds a PhD in computer science from Yale University.

“In Bratin, we have found an inspirational and fantastically well-qualified leader to help us drive the transformation of NTT DATA’s growth model for the AI era,” said Yutaka Sasaki, president and CEO of NTT Data Group.

NTT Data has 190,000 people across 70+ countries and annual revenue exceeding $30 billion. The firm provides services across applications, cloud, infrastructure, CX, AI, data, and cybersecurity, among other areas.

“Few organizations are as well prepared to lead this next wave of AI-powered reinvention as NTT DATA, an industry leader and innovator with decades of experience in reliably delivering mission-critical, scalable systems and earning the trust of the world’s most complex enterprises,” said Saha.
