A team that does what it takes to deliver extraordinary results while living our values. We are passionate about client success because we know that we're making a positive change for that person, others, and the whole organization.\nWe believe that relationships build extraordinary results. How we interact, share, guide, and mentor makes it possible to lead people through meaningful change and leave our clients with lasting capability long after an engagement ends.\nLiberum's tailored approach to technology consulting, organizational change management, and AI solution delivery has earned the trust of Fortune 500 companies and government agencies alike. We know that adoption and total engagement equal success, and that success can only be achieved by tailoring the approach to the specific initiative and the specific organization.\nThe RoleLiberum continues to build out its artificial intelligence (AI) practice to meet clients where they are across a full spectrum of need. We are seeking a Strategic AI Architect to serve as a trusted advisor and hands-on practitioner, helping government and enterprise clients define, communicate, and execute AI roadmaps that are practical, scalable, and built to last.\nThis is not a role for someone who only theorizes.\nYou will build, demonstrate, and coach\n\nYou will walk into rooms full of skeptics and walk out with believers\n\nYou bring the technical credibility to design real AI systems\n\nYou bring the communication skills to earn trust with executives, agency staff, and everyone in between\n\nA core part of this engagement involves helping clients understand and navigate where they are across the AI spectrum, where they should prioritize next, and how to build the internal capability to sustain what is built.\nWe are looking for someone who is as comfortable in a whiteboard session as they are in a terminal window. Equally important, we are looking for someone who genuinely enjoys the human side of technology adoption and gets energy from helping skeptical people become confident ones.\nThis person will be Liberum's public-facing AI authority in Washington State—speaking at agency and industry events, publishing pieces that shape how state and local government think about AI adoption, and serving as the named architect on our most visible engagements. If you've been waiting for the chance to put your signature on the AI story of a region, this is that seat.\nNote: The clients you work with are at an inflection point. They are trying to figure out how to adopt AI without breaking what works or compromising public trust. Your roadmap and guidance will literally shape their AI future. You will help leaders move from fear and paralysis to clarity and momentum. You will be the person who unlocks capabilities that seemed impossible six months before. That matters. If you want the opportunity to put your signature on an organization's future, we would like to talk.\nWhat we require with your applicationStrong candidates make their thinking visible. We screen for evidence of work, not just claims of experience. Applications without a portfolio submission will not progress past initial review. Include the following:\n\nResume + cover letter (standard)\n\nTwo pieces of public-facing AI work, in any combination of the following formats: \n\nA published article, white paper, or blog post you authored\n\nA recorded conference talk, podcast appearance, or workshop facilitation\n\nA public GitHub repository or shared agentic project\n\nA sample AI roadmap, governance framework, or architecture decision document (redacted where appropriate)\n\nOne short paragraph (200 words or less) describing your approach to introducing AI in an environment where some stakeholders fear it, some embrace it, and some believe they are more capable than the AI itself\n\nWe read every submission. If you are between portfolio pieces or your strongest work is under NDA, tell us that directly and propose what you can share—we will work with you.\nPosition ResponsibilitiesAI Roadmap and Strategy\nDevelop and maintain practical AI roadmaps for clients based on readiness, risk tolerance, and business value\n\nAssess the current state of client AI capability and translate findings into clear, phased plans that stakeholders understand and can rally around\n\nDefine governance structures, decision frameworks, and success metrics appropriate to each tier of solution delivery\n\nIndustry Awareness and Trend Translation\nStay actively current on the rapidly evolving AI landscape and translate industry developments into practical, actionable guidance for client environments\n\nAdvise clients on model selection, platform tradeoffs, and emerging capabilities across the LLM and GenAI ecosystem\n\nDistinguish signal from noise in AI trends, helping clients invest in approaches with staying power rather than chasing the next headline\n\nCoding and Rapid Prototyping\nUse AI-native development workflows and agentic IDEs to rapidly prototype working solutions that make abstract concepts concrete\n\nDemonstrate what is possible in working sessions with clients, reducing the gap between strategy and tangible output\n\nLeverage prompt engineering and LLM-driven code generation to accelerate solution development\n\nAgentic AI Design and Orchestration\nHelp clients build a foundational understanding of agentic AI and what it can realistically do in their environment\n\nEvaluate client use cases to assess whether agentic architectures are the right fit, or whether simpler approaches will deliver better outcomes\n\nGuide clients through deployment decisions, including build vs. buy, orchestration tooling, and phasing of rollout\n\nServe as a knowledgeable translator between agentic AI capabilities and the practical, operational realities of the client's business\n\nData Privacy, Security, and AI Governance\nEvaluate and recommend data architecture patterns that protect PII and citizen data, particularly in public sector environments subject to regulatory oversight\n\nDesign guardrails, access controls, and governance policies that enable AI adoption without compromising security or public trust\n\nHelp clients distinguish between cloud-hosted AI solutions and on-premise or hybrid architectures based on their specific data residency and sovereignty requirements\n\nStakeholder Engagement and Change Leadership\nEngage stakeholders at all levels, from executive sponsors to frontline staff, with approaches tailored to their concerns and readiness\n\nNavigate organizational complexity and resistance with patience, credibility, and practical empathy, particularly in environments with significant fear around AI adoption\n\nLead workshops, demonstrations, and awareness sessions that build understanding and momentum without overwhelming or alienating participants\n\nCoach client-side staff to build internal AI capability, reducing dependence on external support over time\n\nIdentify opportunities to create additional client value across engagements and contribute to Liberum's growing AI practice\n\nPublic Voice and Practice Building\nPublish thought leadership — blog posts, white papers, or articles — that establish Liberum as a credible AI voice in the public sector\n\nSpeak at agency, industry, and conference events where appropriate, representing the practice externally\n\nServe as the named architect on flagship engagements and contribute to RFP and SOW work as the AI subject matter expert\n\nRequirements\n\n7 or more years in technology architecture, solutions consulting, or a closely related discipline, with at least 3 years focused on AI or GenAI solution delivery\n\nDemonstrated experience developing AI roadmaps and translating strategic intent into phased, executable plans\n\nHands-on proficiency with LLMs, RAG architectures, vector databases, and prompt engineering in production or near-production contexts\n\nWorking knowledge of agentic AI design patterns and multi-agent orchestration frameworks\n\nFluency with AI-native development workflows, including agentic IDEs and vibe coding approaches for rapid prototyping\n\nExperience translating business intent into technical architecture decisions — formal business analysis credentials not required, but the ability to read business need and translate it cleanly to technical execution is essential\n\nClear command of AI data architecture and the ability to identify and mitigate privacy and security risks at each stage of an AI pipeline\n\nDemonstrated communication craft.
