The role is highly consultative and hands-on, focusing on organizational diagnostics and rapidly building functional prototypes to demonstrate value and accelerate ROI.
Key Responsibilities
- Map current-state workflows end-to-end to diagnose root causes of operational friction (handoff failures, governance gaps, tooling mismatches).
- Redesign target-state operations for leaner workflows, clearer decision rights, and effective human-agent collaboration using AI.
- Design operating models (structure, roles, governance, cross-functional interaction, value realization).
- Establish performance baselines and measurement frameworks to track continuous improvement.
- Identify value gaps in stalled implementations and restore path to ROI.
- Build functional AI-powered prototypes and demos using LLM APIs, platform-native features, and low-code/no-code environments.
- Use working demos as primary tools for stakeholder alignment within actual client processes.
- Advise clients on practical AI use cases versus distractions; support rollout, adoption, and change management.
- Design enablement materials and contribute reusable frameworks for practice qualification and scoping.
Qualifications
- 5 to 10 years of experience in management consulting or equivalent roles within enterprise technology, SaaS, or professional services.
- Demonstrated expertise in at least two areas: organizational design, operating model transformation, change management, technology enablement, process engineering, or go-to-market execution.
- Proven ability to build structured, evidence-based arguments and influence senior stakeholders.
- Hands-on experience building AI-powered workflows, automations, and prototypes; ability to ship working solutions.
- Comfortable working autonomously without a dedicated engineering team and able to scope and deliver rapid proofs of concept.
- Strong diagnostic mindset, accountability to measurable outcomes, and a bias toward building early working prototypes.
- Experience with large-scale organizational assessments, process redesigns, or large technology rollouts is preferred.
What We Offer
- 100% remote work.
- Highly competitive compensation paid in USD.
- Paid time off.
- Autonomy and flexible, outcome-focused work environment.
- Opportunities to work with leading U.S. companies and a diverse, global network of professionals.
