The Opportunity
Clearsulting is developing a Data Engineering and Architecture practice that will extend our Office of the CFO capabilities, strengthen our AI offerings, and enable us to participate in broader enterprise data and transformation programs. We are seeking an entrepreneurial Data Engineering & Architecture Practice Lead to help define, build, and lead this capability. This is not a role with a fully prescribed service portfolio or operating model. The successful candidate will have the opportunity to shape the direction of the practice based on client demand, Clearsulting's existing market position, developments in enterprise AI, and the evolving needs of finance, data, and technology leaders.
The initial practice thesis centers on three connected areas:

• Finance data strategy, architecture, integration, governance, and controls
• Enterprise data engineering, architecture, and modern cloud data platforms
• Data and knowledge foundations required to operationalize enterprise AI

The practice may evolve beyond these initial areas as the market develops. The Practice Lead will be responsible for identifying where Clearsulting can establish a differentiated position, translating that position into compelling client offerings, and building the people, methods, partnerships, and delivery capabilities required to scale.

• Drive Market Development and Growth
• • Drive practice growth by developing executive relationships, identifying client opportunities, and expanding Clearsulting's presence within technology, data, and transformation organizations.
  • Lead business development efforts including solution design, proposal development, pricing strategy, and contract negotiations.
  • Own practice performance and growth objectives, including pipeline, bookings, revenue, profitability, and strategic partnerships.
• Lead Client Delivery
• • Serve as a trusted advisor to senior business, finance, and technology leaders, guiding complex data, analytics, and transformation initiatives.
  • Oversee the successful delivery of engagements across data strategy, architecture, engineering, governance, cloud modernization, and AI enablement.
  • Ensure client engagements deliver measurable business outcomes while maintaining high standards of quality, risk management, and delivery excellence.
• Build and Lead the Team
• • Recruit, develop, and lead a high-performing team of data architects, engineering leaders, and consulting professionals.
  • Foster a culture of technical excellence, client service, innovation, and collaboration aligned with Clearsulting's Core Values.
  • Establish career development pathways, governance standards, and delivery capabilities that support long-term practice growth.
• Collaborate Across Clearsulting
• • Partner with leaders across Business Advisory, Office of the CFO, AI, and technology practices to develop integrated client solutions and go-to-market strategies.
  • Help embed data and architecture capabilities into broader transformation initiatives, creating greater value for clients and expanding Clearsulting's impact.
  • Contribute to firmwide growth, innovation, talent development, and strategic planning initiatives.

What You'll Bring:

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Information Systems, Business or Finance
• 10+ years of consulting, data, technology, architecture, engineering, or enterprise transformation experience, including leadership responsibility for complex client engagements and teams.
• Demonstrated experience building, scaling, or leading a consulting practice, service line, technology organization, or significant capability area.
