Slalom
Slalom Flex (Project Based) – AI Strategist
Location:
Remote, supporting MST working hours; local to Denver with onsite preferred. Who You’ll Work With
Our teams help organizations of all kinds redefine what’s possible, give shape to the future, and get there. We focus on high‑impact projects, meeting our clients where they are to uncover business needs and deliver results. We drive more transformative outcomes by helping clients move confidently through ambiguity and risk. Job Overview
This position partners with a client operating in a Google‑centric ecosystem and helps accelerate Generative AI (GenAI) adoption across product, engineering, and data teams. The consultant shapes strategy, coaches teams, and provides hands‑on guidance on how to best use Databricks, Google Gemini, AWS (including Bedrock), and adjacent GenAI technologies together. What You’ll Do
Strategy & Roadmapping
Develop a pragmatic GenAI roadmap aligned to business outcomes, data readiness, and the client’s platform environment (Google‑first with multi‑cloud components). Translate ambiguous opportunities into clear, value‑driven use cases (assistants, automation, knowledge retrieval, personalization) with risk/impact considerations. Enablement & Coaching
Lead hands‑on workshops, labs, and office hours to upskill delivery teams and stakeholders on GenAI fundamentals (prompting, evaluation, safety considerations). Build playbooks, patterns, and reference examples tailored to the client’s workflows and technology stack. Solution Architecture & Prototyping
Guide the design of GenAI solutions using Databricks, Google Gemini, AWS Bedrock, and other ecosystem tools—without requiring deep specialization in any single platform. Support development of prototypes such as RAG workflows, lightweight agents, orchestration patterns, and reference integrations to demonstrate feasibility and best practices. Vendor Landscape & Tooling
Advise on the broader GenAI vendor ecosystem (model providers, vector DBs, eval frameworks, agent platforms). Compare tools across criteria like performance, cost, security, and implementation complexity; support proof‑of‑concept evaluations. Collaboration & Change Management
Partner with data engineering, platform, and product teams to integrate GenAI responsibly within existing services and workflows. Communicate clearly with both technical and non‑technical audiences, ensuring alignment around recommendations and decisions. What You’ll Bring
Broad experience applying GenAI tools in real‑world contexts, including prompting best practices, evaluation, and enterprise integration patterns. Familiarity with Databricks AI capabilities, Google Gemini, and AWS (especially AWS Bedrock) – emphasis on understanding platform strengths and how they work together. Strong enablement skills: ability to coach engineers, analysts, and product partners through hands‑on teaching, labs, and curriculum development. Working knowledge of building prototypes across Python/SQL notebooks, API‑based integrations, simple orchestration patterns, and multi‑cloud environments. Clear, pragmatic communication skills with the ability to translate complex AI concepts into actionable guidance. Experience working with multiple GenAI providers (OpenAI, Anthropic, Cohere, etc.) and understanding model selection tradeoffs. Familiarity with modern data and ML workflows (e.g., CI/CD for ML assets, vector search concepts, data transformation tools). Prior consulting experience preferred. Exceptional communication skills.
