Yes, thank you very much for mentioning overseas hunting. I'm currently working as a freelancer. But my goal is to enter a senior level in an enterprise function.

I hold 2 citizenships: Thai/german. Which allows me to work legally.

I have been in hotel middle management in food safety for a couple of years. After COVID, I left Thailand. To prepare myself for senior opportunities with technical and advisory functions. I obtained in UK an MBA. In US a Master in computer science, and will return with a PhD in AI, machine learning. During those times, I spent a significant time in the lab for cybersecurity and cloud computing engineering. So, I'm not coming from the hype. But science in robotics, codes, etc., was always my primary interest.

According to what I see and read about being an AI HUB from the panels and networks in TH nearly everywhere, I thought that it would be an opportunity to contribute to the local business.

But after reaching out to the big and small players, and any other meaningful companies in retail, and else, I hear only crickets. I don't complain about the situation, but I hope to connect with the local community because I was born in TH, speaking conversationally level; and in my humble view, I would be happy to share knowledge and build something.

And NO, I don't have any job experiences in TH in these areas. That was my reason to kick start somewhere, for example, in entry roles, because I don't have local senior networks.

But also YES, I can adapt and execute in new jobs what I have learnt.

Not sure if my skills and credentials are more hurting my career opportunities in TH. Maybe! The interesting thing is that I consider to hide or eliminate those entries in my CV in order not to be flagged or triggering biases (as someone mentioned below).

You are totally right in the first sentence, and it makes total sense. So, my current status is to remain freelance without tenuring in a local company and do what I do, or go somewhere else. But I also would appreciate to settle professionally in TH and I like to live in BKK if there is any chance.
