Full Job Description

Resultant is a modern consulting firm with a radically different approach to solving problems. We don’t solve problems for our clients. We solve problems with them. Through outcomes driven by data analytics, technology solutions, digital transformation, and beyond, our team works with clients in both the public and private sectors to solve their most complex challenges. We start by learning as much as we can about who they are, how they work, and what they’re striving for so we can feel their problems as our own. Partnering with our clients means their desired outcomes are always top of mind, their challenges and strengths guiding our efforts. We build client-focused relationships before we build unique solutions that blaze past expectations. Originally founded in Indianapolis in 2008, Resultant now employs more than 400 team members who operate from offices around the United States including Indianapolis and Fort Wayne, Indiana; Columbus, Ohio; Lansing, Michigan; Denver, Colorado; Dallas, Texas and Atlanta, Georgia. We’re Resultant. Clients partner with us to see a difference. People join us to make one. The Role This is a senior leadership role for an architect who is equally comfortable in a client boardroom, in a technical design review, and in a proposal war room. You’ll architect AI- and data-driven solutions for our most strategic engagements, contribute to the reusable IP that powers our offerings, and partner with sales leaders to shape and win new work. You will operate across three connected pillars: 1. Solution Architecture for AI-Enabled Delivery Lead architecture and technical strategy for client engagements spanning data platforms, application modernization, AI/ML, and agentic systems. Design solutions that integrate cloud infrastructure, modern data stacks, and AI capabilities — and ensure those solutions are delivered using AI-assisted engineering practices that compress timelines without compromising quality. 2. Accelerator and Offering Development
