Our job is to make sure our clients build the right thing at the right time - and then build it right. AI tools, agents, and workflows are embedded into our delivery practices - accelerating discovery, documentation, analysis, backlog management, and team alignment. We are passionate, adaptive experts who continually practice and hone our craft. What You'll Do As an Architect-level Solution Owner, you'll work shoulder-to-shoulder with engineers, architects, designers, and data specialists inside high-velocity delivery pods, and partner directly with client product owners and technology leaders to translate business intent into clear product direction, lead Agile delivery teams as they adopt AI-enabled ways of working, and keep strategy, scope, delivery health, and value connected from concept through launch and iteration. Core responsibilities include: * Defining and managing project governance including cadence, Agile events, and delivery reporting that surfaces the data clients need to decide. * Partnering with Product Owners to define the product, pressure-test assumptions, and produce clear specifications, user stories, and acceptance criteria tied to OKRs - reframing conversations from solutions to outcomes when needed. * Owning the product lifecycle from concept through launch and beyond - collecting feedback, measuring impact, and planning the next iteration. * Maintaining the project's context hub - a shared source of truth across strategy, decisions, requirements, risks, and technical context - and using AI tooling (e.g., MCPs, agents) to keep it current and accessible. * Leading delivery teams through managing issues and risks, facilitating meetings, and providing clear project status updates. * Collaborating with engineering leaders, validating the technical approach, strategy, and deliverables, and documenting the toolchain the team relies on. * Applying and adapting prompts, templates, and repeatable AI workflows that support requirements, documentation, analysis, and backlog management. * Testing ideas through lightweight prototypes and using feedback to sharpen product direction. ## Related Videos - [ShapeShift: Reinventing Agile for a B2B SaaS Scale-Up](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1655-shapeshift-reinventing-agile-for-a-b2b-saas-scale-up) - [Building the Next Generation of Software](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100186-building-the-next-generation-of-software) - [PySpark - Combining Machine Learning & Big Data](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/44-pyspark-combining-machine-learning-big-data) - [From DevOps to Scaled DevOps: How We’re Rebuilding Continuous Delivery as a Platform](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100018-from-devops-to-scaled-devops-how-we-re-rebuilding-continuous-delivery-as-a-platform) - [AI and Agility: The Dynamic Duo for Disruption](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/2081-ai-and-agility-the-dynamic-duo-for-disruption) - [AI Killed DevOps...
