Architect - Solution Ownership (Miami)

About the Role

Slalom's Solution Owners are hands-on technology, AI, and Agile delivery experts dedicated to their projects and clients. Our job is to make sure our clients build the right thing at the right time — and then build it right. AI tools, agents, and workflows are embedded into our delivery practices — accelerating discovery, documentation, analysis, backlog management, and team alignment. We are passionate, adaptive experts who continually practice and hone our craft.

What You'll Do

As an Architect-level Solution Owner, you'll work shoulder-to-shoulder with engineers, architects, designers, and data specialists inside high-velocity delivery pods, and partner directly with client product owners and technology leaders to translate business intent into clear product direction, lead AI-enabled Agile delivery teams, and keep strategy, scope, delivery health, and value connected from concept through launch and iteration.

Core responsibilities include:

• Defining and managing project governance including cadence, Agile events, and delivery reporting that surfaces the data clients need to decide.
• Partnering with Product Owners to define the product, pressure-test assumptions, and produce clear specifications, user stories, and acceptance criteria tied to OKRs — reframing conversations from solutions to outcomes when needed.
• Owning the product lifecycle from concept through launch and beyond — collecting feedback, measuring impact, and planning the next iteration.
• Maintaining the project's context hub — a shared source of truth across strategy, decisions, requirements, risks, and technical context — and using AI tooling (e.g., MCPs, agents) to keep it current and accessible.
• Leading delivery teams through managing issues and risks, facilitating meetings, and providing clear project status updates.
• Collaborating with engineering leaders, validating the technical approach, strategy, and deliverables, and documenting the toolchain the team relies on.
• Building and refining effective prompts, templates, and repeatable AI workflows that support requirements, documentation, analysis, and backlog management.
• Testing ideas through lightweight prototypes and using feedback to sharpen product direction.
• Travel may be required depending on client needs.

What You'll Bring

You are a curious problem solver and bring several years of product development experience as a Product, Project, or Program Manager using Agile methodologies and leveraging AI across the full software and testing lifecycle. You demonstrate:

• Skill in turning ideas and conversations into clear specifications, backlogs, acceptance criteria, and success metrics for iterative development.
• Ability to bridge business and technical teams, with comfort in repositories, version control, and delivery toolchains.
• Strong investigative, analytical, and communication skills — including the use of AI to accelerate research, validate findings, and produce actionable insights.
• Knowledge of Agile frameworks including Scrum, Kanban, SAFe, XP, and Lean, and the ability to adapt the framework to project needs.
• Strong delivery acumen, risk identification and mitigation skills, in complex or ambiguous environments.
• Experience applying AI to real delivery work, and the curiosity to keep pushing what it can do.
• A technology-oriented mindset and comfort with modern developer tooling. A technical degree, software delivery background, or equivalent experience is helpful.
