Meet Thai, Graduate in Deloitte's Technology & Transformation business
Time out with a Deloitte Graduate
Meet Thai Le, a graduate of our Technology & Transformations' Engineering, AI & Data (EAI&D) team who joined Deloitte in 2024. Thai shares with us his journey to Deloitte and what his graduate year has been like.
Thai’s journey to Deloitte has been driven by passion, resilience, and a determination to turn challenges into opportunities. “I joined Deloitte as a graduate in 2024 because I was drawn to the firm’s innovation, inclusivity, and the chance to make an impact that truly matters,” he explains. Living with muscular dystrophy and navigating the world in a powered wheelchair, Thai sought a workplace that celebrated individuality and inclusion—and he found that at Deloitte.
With a background in IT, Thai was excited to join a company known for its technical expertise and innovative problem-solving. “Working in Deloitte’s engineering team is both challenging and inspiring,” he shares. “I design and deploy scalable, cloud-native solutions across AWS, Azure, and GCP, leveraging Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) for consistent, automated provisioning. These cloud architectures are seamlessly integrated with industry-standard technologies such as Apache Kafka, MuleSoft, Dynatrace, Karate, alongside a diverse range of modern tools and frameworks.” One of his most exciting projects was developing a digital transformation solution for a major client—modernising legacy systems and crafting strategies tailored to their unique needs.”
Thai’s typical week is a blend of collaboration, problem-solving, and continuous learning. “I kick off my days with team meetings—whether in person or online—to ensure everyone’s aligned and any challenges are tackled head-on,” he says. He splits his time between working from home and being in the office, with regular client sessions that keep him connected to the evolving needs of the business. Deloitte’s wealth of workshops, training sessions, and coaching support means that personal and professional growth is always on the agenda.
Outside of work, Thai’s creativity shines through in his passions for photography and gaming. “I love capturing moments and telling stories through my lens,” he enthuses. “And gaming is a great way to unwind, stay connected with friends, and even spark a bit of friendly competition.”
"From day one, I was assigned a buddy and a project coach, which made navigating the company so much easier."
Thai also values Deloitte’s supportive culture and flexibility. “From day one, I was assigned a buddy and a project coach, which made navigating the company so much easier,” he reflects. “Deloitte Flex—and especially PlaceFlex—has been invaluable, giving me the freedom to work from wherever I feel most productive, whether that’s at home, in the office, or even on-site with a client.”
When asked what surprises him most about working at Deloitte, Thai quickly points out the diversity of projects. “I never expected the variety—from cutting-edge tech implementations to strategic transformations across industries. It keeps the work dynamic and ensures there’s always something new to learn and explore,” he says.
Thai sums it up perfectly: “Deloitte offers unparalleled opportunities for growth and development in an inclusive, innovative, and supportive environment. If you’re looking for a place where you can challenge yourself, contribute meaningfully, and truly be yourself, Deloitte is the perfect choice.”
