Applied AI Consultant
About the role
BTS is building a new kind of consulting capability: one where the consultant doesn’t just advise on AI - they build it, teach it, and help organizations get results. We’re looking for Applied AI Consultants who can sit with a client team, understand their real work, prototype an AI-powered solution in the room, and then help that team adopt it at scale.
Responsibilities
Build: Prototype to Production
- Work directly with client teams and BTS colleagues to identify high-value AI use cases grounded in real workflows, not theoretical opportunity maps
- Rapidly prototype AI-powered solutions using LLM APIs (Claude, GPT, Gemini), agentic frameworks, and integration platforms (MCP, tool-use architectures, workflow automation)
- Take prototypes through to production-grade tools deployed inside enterprise environments, working alongside client IT and data teams
- Build and maintain internal BTS AI tools and workflows as part of our Customer Zero program, dogfooding everything we take to market
- Design and implement agentic systems, MCP server integrations, RAG pipelines, and custom tooling that connects AI models to enterprise data and systems
Teach:
- Facilitate and enable design and delivery of hands-on AI training sessions for technical audiences (engineers, data scientists, IT leaders) and commercial audiences (C-suite, sales leaders, functional heads)
- Facilitate workshops that move from “understanding AI” to “building with AI” in a single session. Participants leave with working prototypes, not just frameworks
- Create hands-on workshops and simulations for AI adoption programs, including prompt engineering, agentic workflows, responsible AI use, and AI-augmented decision-making
- Deliver sessions to senior partners and consultants at major professional services firms (SI partners, Big Four) on behalf of BTS and our AI lab partners
- Create compelling demonstrations and interactive experiences that make abstract AI concepts tangible for non-technical leaders
Transform: Consult and Scale
- Partner with client leadership to design AI adoption strategies that connect to business outcomes: revenue growth, cost transformation, workforce productivity, and capability building
- Conduct AI readiness diagnostics and workflow assessments to identify where AI can create the highest leverage
- Develop measurement frameworks to quantify the impact of AI adoption on P&L, productivity, and capability development
- Support business development by contributing to proposals, client pitches, and go-to-market strategy for BTS’s AI adoption services
- Stay at the frontier: evaluate emerging models, tools, and architectural patterns; contribute to BTS’s point of view on applied AI
Qualifications
- Strong background in AI, machine learning, or related fields
- Experience building and deploying AI solutions in enterprise environments
- Ability to work effectively with cross-functional teams, including client teams, BTS colleagues, and external partners
- Excellent communication and facilitation skills, able to engage and inspire diverse audiences
- Passion for transforming how people work with AI and making a meaningful impact on business outcomes
Skills
- Python programming
- LLM API usage (Claude, GPT, Gemini)
- Agentic frameworks and integration platforms (MCP, tool-use architectures, workflow automation)
- Workflow automation and system design
- AI ethics and responsible AI practices
- Effective communication and presentation skills
- Ability to work independently and as part of a team
