Engagement Lead — Data & AI

Does This Sound Like You?
You're the rare hybrid: someone who can sit across from a CFO at 9am, walk a leadership team through a multi-year data strategy at 11am, then jump on a call with engineers at 2pm and actually understand what they're saying. You speak business and tech — and you know how to translate between the two without anything getting lost.
You've seen enough engagements to know that strategy decks don't deliver value on their own. The real work is in the messy middle: shaping a roadmap that's actually executable, holding a delivery team to a plan, and managing stakeholders who all want different things. You're equally comfortable challenging an architecture choice and rewriting a steering committee deck the night before.
You're not just looking for your next project. You're looking for a long-term, high-trust client engagement where you can become the person they call when something matters.
