Job description

CompassX is a boutique business and technology consulting firm. We help Fortune 500 and high-growth clients deliver their most strategic initiatives, from enterprise transformations to digital and data-driven projects. With over 15 years of proven results, we’ve expanded across industries including financial services, pharmaceuticals, aerospace, consumer products, and quick service restaurants.

We are honored to be recognized as a three-time winner of Consulting Magazine’s Best Boutique Firms to Work For, and previously recognized as a “Best Place to Work” in Southern California and one of INC.’s 5000 fastest-growing private companies in the U.S.

We’re looking for a Solution Owner (Data, Technology & AI) to act as the "bridge" between executive strategy and technical execution for our enterprise clients. You will operate as the single source of truth, ensuring that complex Data and AI initiatives are built with clarity, stability, and measurable business value. This role is ideal for someone who can combine Agile program management with product strategy, effectively acting as multiple personas where needed - The Translator, The Navigator, The Therapist, and The Air Traffic Controller - to guide engineering teams from initial discovery through to production in rapid development environments.
 
This role is fully remote; however, we are currently only set up to employ individuals who reside and work remotely from the following states: California, Washington, Texas, Oregon, Colorado, Pennsylvania, and Georgia.
What You'll Do
  • Perform complex delivery management on client engagements, defining project roadmaps, financials, and timelines for multiple workstreams.
  • Define and work within an agile project governance framework, facilitating backlog refinement, sprint planning, and Scrum ceremonies to drive team velocity.
  • Act as the "Navigator", guiding the roadmap and anticipating risks to ensure the solution moves smoothly from idea to prototype to production.
  • Serve as the "Translator", converting business goals into actionable technical requirements and explaining technical constraints back to stakeholders.
  • Operate as an "Air Traffic Controller", managing cross-team dependencies, prioritizing work, and keeping delivery moving safely without collision.
  • Act as a "Therapist" for the project, listening deeply to stakeholders to cut through noise and identify the true business need behind the request.
  • Serve as the functional authority for Data, Technology, & AI solutions, evaluating use case feasibility and mapping data lineage and schema needs.
  • Partner with Solution Architects and Engineers to align on technical strategy, understanding pipelines and models to validate the approach.
  • Manage quality assurance by defining success metrics, overseeing User Acceptance Testing (UAT), and manually validating data quality and model readiness
What You'll Bring
  • 5+ years of experience in product ownership and technical program management
  • Strong consulting background, ideally with experience in reputable consulting firms
  • Bachelor’s degree or higher in a relevant field (Business, Computer Science, Engineering) or equivalent demonstrable practical experience
  • Strong ability to bridge the gap between non-technical stakeholders and engineering teams
  • Experience operating in Data, Technology, or AI environments, with an understanding of data pipelines, advanced analytics, or other modern architecture
  • Proficiency in Agile methodologies, including managing backlogs and leading ceremonies in rapid development cycles
  • Proven track record of stakeholder management, executive communication, and driving consensus
  • Hands-on experience with requirement documentation, data validation, and UAT planning
  • Self-driven, outcome-oriented, and able to serve as the single source of truth for a solution
Benefits
  • Competitive salary with performance-based bonus
  • PTO, holidays, and sabbatical program
  • Health, dental, vision, and life insurance
  • Retirement plan with company match from day one
  • Learning and professional development support
  • Small-firm culture with direct access to leadership
Our consultants say CompassX is a place where they can truly find their own path. As part of a smaller firm, they see the impact of their work, have an identity, and know their voice matters. They value the freedom to take the reins of their careers, shape their client work, and maintain a direct line to leadership.

With CompassX’s focus on serving local Southern California clients, consultants not only build lasting relationships but also see the results of their work in the communities where they live.

At CompassX, you won’t just follow a path - you’ll create one.

We may use artificial intelligence (AI) tools to support parts of the hiring process, such as reviewing applications, analyzing resumes, or assessing responses and identifying potential inconsistencies or verification signals in application materials based on available information. These tools assist our recruitment team but do not replace human judgment. Final hiring decisions are ultimately made by humans.
