We design, build, and deploy AI solutions that help clients eliminate manual work, move faster, and deliver measurable results across industries. This is a technical leadership and consulting role, which includes both hands-on building, solution design, workstream leadership, and client advisory. You will own solution architecture, lead a project workstream, build the most complex components yourself, mentor Associates and Senior Associates, and serve as a trusted advisor to client executives. You will take solutions from proof of concept through secure, enterprise-scale production, and help shape proposals and pursuits with business unit leadership. How You Will Contribute Solution Design and Delivery * Design and build components of AI and data solutions, including data pipelines, machine learning models, APIs, and generative and agentic AI applications, from prototype through production. * Translate workstream requirements into technical tasks, estimates, and working code, with guidance from the project leadership. * Troubleshoot and improve solutions in development and production, including performance, reliability, and cost. Hands-On Engineering * Build hands-on, writing and reviewing code, developing proofs of concept, and integrating services. * Apply engineering practices, including source control, code review, automated testing, CI/CD, and documentation. * Deploy and operate solutions in cloud environments (AWS, GCP, or Azure), including containerized deployments. Consulting and Client Impact * Apply structured problem-solving to break down client problems, test hypotheses with data, and recommend practical solutions. * Present findings and technical approaches clearly to client working teams and, with support, to executives. * Build trusted relationships with client counterparts through reliable follow-through and professionalism. * Contribute to business development, including proposal content, solution outlines, and demonstrations. * Collaborate across practice areas and foster an inclusive team environment that values diverse perspectives.
