Description
Applied AI Solution Owner – Inspire11
Elevens, as we call ourselves here, are passionately curious, highly collaborative, and unabashedly authentic. At Inspire11, we believe everyone drives change, everyone takes ownership of their career, and no idea is too odd to embrace. Our team learns from each other by pushing the boundaries of what’s possible.
We partner with our clients to define their strategies to optimize their business in all things data and digital. Whether that be modern data architecture, custom application development, or design thinking, and this is just scratching the surface. We are a team of puzzle solvers who take the various pieces that the client already has and assemble them in a way that reveals the bigger picture.
We believe that the most impactful and innovative work includes and fosters a range of diverse perspectives. We’ve created a work environment in which you can expect:
- Individualized Professional Growth: You will have the opportunity to engage in growing the team and there are ample opportunities to define your path and develop your skillset
- Work life balance: We are respectful of people’s boundaries and have unlimited time off so that our team has time to recharge and do their best work. We understand that our team members have different needs and we do our best to work with their schedules while accommodating client needs
- Vibrant company culture: We love to keep things light-hearted, both within our client work and at companywide events
What you can expect in this role:
-
Lead end-to-end delivery of custom AI/ML engagements, from initial scoping through production deployment: managing timelines, budgets, and client expectations across the full lifecycle
-
Serve as the connective tissue between client stakeholders and the technical team, translating business problems into feasible AI/ML approaches
-
Proactively identify delivery risks before they surface: data readiness issues, scope assumptions, approach feasibility, and organizational gaps
-
Lead scoping, estimation, and SOW development for custom AI/ML builds, validating technical accuracy and realistic delivery commitments
-
Challenge and pressure test technical approaches proposed by DS and MLE team members
-
Build and maintain trusted client relationships, managing expectations through the ambiguity that is inherent in AI/ML delivery
-
Support pre-sales pursuits including discovery, solution shaping, and proposal development for AI/ML opportunities
-
Coach and develop delivery team members, fostering accountability and growth across technical and consulting skills
-
Drive adoption of AI readiness frameworks with clients: ensuring people, process, and data foundations are in place before and during solution delivery
Tools for success:
- 5+ years leading technical delivery in a consulting or client-facing environment, with direct experience on custom AI builds
- Hands-on exposure to AI/ML tooling, workflows, or solution evaluation
- Demonstrated ability to scope, estimate, and decompose AI/ML programs
- Experience leading discovery and solution-shaping conversations that zoom out from technology to business outcomes before converging on an approach
- Strong stakeholder management and communication skills
- Proven people leadership including coaching and mentoring technical team members across DS and MLE disciplines
- Experience supporting pre-sales pursuits including proposal development, pursuit strategy, and solution positioning for AI/ML engagements
- Working familiarity with GenAI tooling and commoditized AI platforms (Claude, Copilot, OpenAI APIs, etc.)
This role requires the willingness and ability to be onsite at the Inspire11 or client location depending on project needs to maximize in-person collaboration and build stronger relationships.
Inspire11 is unable to sponsor employment visas at this time. Applicants must be legally authorized to work in the U.S. at the time of application and throughout the duration of employment.

U.S. Compensation & Benefits
Bonuses
We may allow employees in Sales, Recruiting, or Leadership to earn periodic bonuses based on sales, revenue, client-specific or practice-specific targets. These targets are communicated to each eligible employee via offer letter or annual update. All such target-based bonuses are calculated based on the Company and an individual’s periodic performance and will only be awarded if: (a) the employee is meeting performance expectations and is an employee in good standing of the Company; (b) the target is met; and (c) the Company’s current financial performance and market conditions permit the bonus to be paid out. All periodic bonuses are discretionary and are earned only when paid out.
Each year, the Company will decide whether the Company’s financial performance, market performance, and business realities allow it to create an annual bonus pool. If the Company decides that annual bonuses may be awarded, then the Leadership Team will grant annual bonuses to employees in good standing based on the same factors discussed in the previous paragraph while also considering employees’ diligence, performance, expertise, skill, judgment, and experience. To be eligible to participate in this annual bonus pool, an employee must be hired by no later than October 1st of the preceding year. Annual bonuses and merit increases may be prorated based on hire date. Employees eligible for target-based periodic bonuses are not eligible to participate in the annual bonus pool.
Options or Other Equity in Inspire11
Inspire11 has a legacy program that allowed certain high-performing employees to purchase shares of the Company through an affiliate. The Company also has a newer program that grants options annually to high-performing emplo
