About the role
As a Principal AI Consultant at Futurice you will be the bridge between bold business ambitions and technical execution. Think of this role as the “Product Manager” for high-impact client engagements: you hold the vision, rally the team, and ensure we aren’t just building cool tech, but delivering real business value.
You will lead multidisciplinary project teams—guiding Senior AI Engineers, Designers, and Data experts—to transform organizations. You understand the language of business and the nuances of AI; you know when a project requires a complex RAG architecture and when simple prompt engineering is the smarter, faster choice.
You will wear many hats: a strategist who frames the problem, a delivery lead who gets things done, and a trusted advisor who helps clients navigate the cultural shifts required to adopt AI.
What you’ll do
Lead AI Engagements: Take ownership of complex AI projects from kick-off to deployment, leading a cross-functional team of engineers, designers, and strategists.
Bridge Business & Tech: Translate client business goals into technical requirements and vice versa. Steer technical decisions to prioritize speed-to-value.
Drive Transformation: Go beyond the build by helping clients operationalize AI, advising on governance, ethics, organizational change, and process redesign.
Co-create Winning Proposals: Support the sales process by consulting during the proposal phase—scoping opportunities, defining value propositions, and structuring roadmaps.
Implement a Product Management Mindset: Manage the backlog and roadmap of projects, making prioritization decisions to focus on the highest-value activities.
Lead by Example: Demonstrate high AI fluency by leveraging AI tools in your own work and demoing concepts and workflows.
Stakeholder Management: Build strong relationships with client stakeholders, managing expectations and fostering collaboration.
Who we’re looking for
The “get it done” attitude
Strong background in digital consulting, product management, or technical project management
Strong AI & tech literacy, including LLMs, agents, RAG, and cloud ecosystems
Strategic pragmatism and ability to separate hype from value
Experience guiding digital or cultural transformation
Fluent Swedish and English
Strong facilitation skills for workshops, sprints, and steering meetings
Ideally, you also have
Experience acting as a Product Owner or Product Manager in an Agile environment
A portfolio of side projects or workflows using Generative AI
Experience in change management or organizational design
