Aimpoint Digital is a premier AI & Data consulting firm with a mission to drive business value for clients through expertise in AI, data strategy and analytics. We partner with organizations to solve complex business problems through innovative, scalable solutions.

This role sits within our Strategy practice and is focused on helping clients identify, prioritize, and operationalize AI opportunities at scale.

What You Will Do 

As an AI Strategist, you will act as a trusted advisor to clients—partnering with business and technology leaders to shape and execute their AI transformation agendas. You will help clients determine where AI should (and should not) be applied, and define the strategic, operational, and economic rationale for AI investments. You will lead engagements focused on AI opportunity assessment, AI strategy development, governance design, AI solution definition and business case development.

In this role, you will assess current-state AI maturity, identify high-value use cases, re-imagine business processes and translate business needs into actionable AI strategies and roadmaps. You will work closely with cross-functional teams to ensure strategies are practical, scalable, and aligned to measurable business value.

You will not only own the delivery of client engagements end-to-end, but also be expected to drive the development of our go-to-market AI strategy offerings, support business development, shape proposals, and develop reusable methodologies and frameworks..  You will also be responsible for mentoring team members and driving the growth of the Strategy practice.

Who We Are Looking For 

We are seeking a client-facing AI strategist who combines strong business acumen with practical experience applying modern AI tools to solve real-world problems. You are comfortable operating in ambiguous environments where problem definitions are not given, and are expected to structure complex, undefined challenges into clear strategic paths forward.

You are a highly skilled communicator and problem solver who can bridge business and technology, translate ambiguity into actionable strategies, and guide organizations through AI transformation with a focus on value realization. You are a driven self-starter who thinks strategically and can also define the practical steps required to execute that strategy successfully. You are interested in constantly learning, proactively developing expertise based on best practices and industry trends and understanding the latest developments in AI. You thrive in ambiguity and possess a blend of consulting acumen, domain knowledge, and entrepreneurial drive.
