The Team

A&M is seeking a Senior Associate to join A&M IQx, our AI-focused business unit. We design, build, and deploy AI solutions that help clients eliminate manual work, move faster, and deliver measurable results across industries.

This is a technical leadership and consulting role, which includes both hands-on building, solution design, workstream leadership, and client advisory. You will own solution architecture, lead a project workstream, build the most complex components yourself, mentor Associates and Senior Associates, and serve as a trusted advisor to client executives. You will take solutions from proof of concept through secure, enterprise-scale production, and help shape proposals and pursuits with business unit leadership.
