Job Description & Summary

The Opportunity

As a Senior Manager, Agentic Engineering Lead, you will guide the design and delivery of agentic and generative AI solutions for clients within our Advisory practice. In this role, you will bring together data engineering, analytical modeling, prompt engineering, and retrieval-augmented generation to develop AI applications grounded in useful information. Working with cloud and product engineering teams, you will shape Azure-native architectures and guide solutions through development, testing, deployment, and maintenance. Your work will help clients modernize applications and turn data into insights that support business decisions.

As a Manager, you will take ownership of client workstreams, balancing plans, budgets, timelines, and deliverable quality while making informed decisions across technical and business needs. You will coach engineers through thoughtful work reviews, draw on their individual strengths, and address challenges candidly with clients and colleagues. By examining how components of an AI system interact, you will apply professional skepticism to technical decisions and uphold professional standards, integrity, and independence requirements. You will also identify opportunities for innovation, use firm methods and technology resources to improve delivery, and help your team adapt as client priorities evolve.
