What you'll do
- Run AI transformation projects from discovery through delivery, serving as the primary client relationship owner and the person ultimately accountable for outcomes.
- Develop transformation roadmaps grounded in a client's actual constraints, then stay in the work long enough to see them implemented, not handed off.
- Identify high-value AI use cases, prototype solutions, and shepherd them from concept to something clients can actually use, often building hands-on alongside the client's internal team.
- Translate complex AI concepts, technical constraints, and strategic tradeoffs into crisp, confident communication for boards, C-suites, and frontline operators alike.
- Contribute to business development, help scope new engagements, and actively deepen relationships with existing clients as their needs evolve.
- Apply AI tools aggressively across your own workflow and your clients', not as a demo, but as a working standard for how fast and how well this work can get done.
- As a senior member of a flat, growing team, you'll help shape how Human Agency delivers, what we learn, and who we become.
What they require
- 5–8+ years of experience in management consulting, venture-backed startups, product strategy, or a combination, with direct ownership over outcomes, not just deliverables.
- Demonstrated track record of taking AI from concept to working reality in an organizational context — not just advising on AI strategy, but building or deploying something that worked.
- Fluency with the AI tooling landscape — foundation models, workflow automation, prompt engineering, and the judgment to know when to build versus buy versus recommend against.
- Proven ability to lead client relationships at the senior level, including navigating organizational politics, managing ambiguity, and keeping complex engagements on track without a safety net.
- Strong written and verbal communication — you can write a crisp executive brief, run a working session with a skeptical VP, and explain a technical architecture decision to a non-technical founder, often in the same day.
- Experience in 0-to-1 product building — you've shipped something, taken something from nothing to real, and you can speak concretely about how you did it.
- Preferred: Background in venture studios, high-growth AI or tech companies, or operator roles at the intersection of strategy and product.
- You're a builder first. Decks are useful; working things are better. You default toward making something real.
- You manage yourself completely. No one will check on your progress, remind you of a deadline, or coach you through a hard week. You are the accountability structure.
- You have no patience for the gap between strategy and execution and have spent your career closing it.
- You're curious about AI in a way that shows up in your actual work — you experiment, you break things, you have opinions formed by firsthand experience, not secondhand summaries.
- You can hold the big picture and the small detail simultaneously, and you know when to zoom in and when to zoom out without being told.
- You do what the work requires. Not what's in scope, not what's comfortable, not what's in your lane.
- Occasional travel required for client engagements, company offsites, and key strategic meetings.
- Attach proof of something you've built with AI — a product, a workflow, a tool, a result. If you don't have something to show, this is not the right role.
