Artefact is a next-generation data and AI consulting firm dedicated to accelerating the adoption of data and AI to create measurable business impact across the full enterprise value chain.
We sit at the intersection of consulting, data science, AI technologies, data engineering, and digital transformation. We do not just advise — we build, implement, and deliver results our clients can measure. Our teams bring together consultants, data scientists, data engineers, AI engineers, analysts, and digital experts to solve complex business challenges with pragmatic, production-ready solutions.
As we continue to grow in the US, we are building a team of entrepreneurial data and AI talent who can help clients move beyond experimentation and into scalable, governed, value-generating AI adoption.
The Role
Artefact is looking for a Senior AI & Data Consultant: an analytical, client-facing consultant who is also a hands-on builder with AI. You will perform advanced analytics, interface directly with clients, and keep project efforts aligned and on track — and you will do it AI-natively. Our senior consultants use AI tools to analyze faster, write better, and prototype what they recommend. When the team needs a quick proof of concept, you're the one who opens Claude Code or Gemini CLI and builds it. We need someone who is not afraid of the terminal.
What You'll Do
- Define client needs through interviews with client teams and technology partners.
- Perform advanced data analysis and research on high-impact, strategic client problems.
- Help build, formulate, and present strategic data and AI recommendations.
- Keep internal project efforts aligned and on track, and interface with clients with confidence and care.
- Use AI tools daily across your work: analysis, synthesis, writing, and quality checking — with the judgment to verify outputs.
- Prototype ideas with agentic coding tools (Claude Code, Gemini CLI, Codex): a working demo, an automated analysis, a small internal tool.
- Apply core GenAI concepts — prompting, RAG, agents, context engineering — well enough to explain them to clients and stress-test vendor claims.
- Develop specialization in at least one AI platform ecosystem: Google (Gemini), Anthropic (Claude), or OpenAI.
- Present insights to clients in clear, compelling language — to technical and non-technical audiences alike.
- Contribute to new business proposals and to Artefact-published content (research, articles, business cases).
- Oversee and mentor entry-level consultants and interns.
