About Architech Architech is an AI-first services firm focused on operational transformation. We help enterprises redesign workflows, modernize execution, and engineer AI-enabled systems into production.
We are not a strategy consultancy, a traditional development shop, or an AI software vendor. We bridge the gap between operational redesign and production execution, where most enterprise AI initiatives fail to create value.
Workflow-first, not tool-first. Production over pilots. Lean, high-leverage teams spanning engineering, product, and design.
22+ years building systems that power operations.
The Opportunity We are hiring a senior growth leader to originate and expand client relationships aligned to Architech's AI-first workflow transformation strategy.
This is a hands‑on growth role responsible for originating relationships, developing pipeline, and converting opportunities into long‑term client partnerships through direct market engagement. While supported by inbound opportunities, CEO‑level introductions, and strategic partnerships, success in this role depends on the ability to independently source, shape, and close complex enterprise engagements.
It is a transformation‑led growth role operating at the intersection of operational redesign, AI adoption, and enterprise execution.
You will work directly with senior client stakeholders to redesign how work gets done using AI, then translate those opportunities into measurable business outcomes and scaled delivery.
The Mandate
Originate and develop qualified enterprise pipeline through direct market engagement
Build new enterprise client relationships from the ground up
Create momentum in new accounts through proactive outreach and executive engagement
Identify and shape high‑value transformation opportunities
Close initial engagements and expand them into long‑term strategic partnerships
Grow accounts into substantial multi‑million‑dollar relationships over time
What You'll Own New Client Acquisition
Own the creation of new client relationships aligned to our ideal client profile
Build and convert a qualified pipeline of enterprise opportunities
Create and close initial engagements, including AI Jumpstarts, discovery engagements, and pilot initiatives
Lead deal cycles from initial conversation through close
Maintain a solid pipeline of active, qualified net‑new opportunities
Inbound leads, strategic partnerships, and executive introductions are meaningful accelerators. Success in this role depends on proactive market engagement, relationship development, and consistent pipeline creation.
Account Growth & Expansion
Grow initial engagements into a $5M-$6M annual portfolio
Identify and expand multi‑workflow transformation opportunities
Build relationships across business units and executive stakeholders
Achieve solid client retention and long‑term account growth
Deal Shaping & Value Creation
Lead advisory conversations focused on workflow redesign and operational transformation with AI
Help clients shape both the problem and the solution in complex or evolving environments
Translate client challenges into measurable business outcomes
Co‑create transformation roadmaps with senior client stakeholders
Structure proposals with clear ROI and commercial alignment
Deal Ownership & Execution
Own deal progression, momentum, and close outcomes
Drive alignment, next steps, and stakeholder engagement across opportunities
Coordinate internal teams to support deal velocity and delivery readiness
Maintain strong pipeline discipline, forecasting, and commercial rigor
This role combines advisory‑led relationship development with commercial ownership and execution.
What Success Looks Like
Build a $5M-$6M annual portfolio within 18‑24 months
Consistently generate and close net‑new client opportunities
Maintain strong year‑over‑year account growth
Establish trusted executive relationships across client organizations
Deliver measurable business outcomes and high client satisfaction
Who You Are Experience
8‑15 years in consulting, transformation, or enterprise technology sales
Proven ability to originate and grow strategic accounts
Experience selling advisory‑led work across AI, data, cloud, product, or digital transformation
Strong commercial acumen, deal shaping, and negotiation experience
AI Fluency & Domain Credibility
You do not need to be an engineer. You do need to hold your own in conversations with a CTO, Head of Data, and skeptical CFO simultaneously
Strong understanding of how modern AI systems are designed, deployed, and operationalized, including LLMs, agents, RAG architectures, evaluation frameworks, and the difference between pilots and production systems
Clear understanding of common enterprise AI failure modes, including stalled pilots, governance gaps,
weak workflow integration, and initiatives that fail to scale into production
Able to translate between business outcomes and technical architecture with credibility on both sides
Current and commercially aware. You actively follow the AI landscape and understand how quickly the space is evolving
Comfortable contributing meaningfully in workflow redesign and operational transformation discussions
Consulting & Advisory Background
Prior experience within a consulting firm, Big 4, boutique transformation practice, or advisory‑led services business
Comfortable selling complex engagements where scope is co‑created with clients rather than fully predefined through formal RFP processes
Track record of shaping ambiguous business challenges into structured, outcome‑oriented engagements
Experience leading discovery, developing proposals and SOWs, defending pricing, and managing transition into delivery
Strong understanding of services economics, including utilization, margin, delivery risk, and scope management
What Makes You Effective Here
High ownership and proactive relationship development
Strong follow‑through and operational discipline
Commercial urgency and consistent pipeline momentum
Operator mindset focused on outcomes and execution
Comfortable navigating ambiguity and building structure where needed
Executive presence with senior client stakeholders
Our Focus
Mid‑market and enterprise organizations across North America
Operationally complex environments including logistics, telecom, financial services, healthcare, and industrial services
Primary buyers include COO, CFO, CEO, and business unit leaders
Secondary stakeholders include CIOs, CTOs, and Heads of Data and AI
Work centered on AI‑driven workflow transformation, not isolated point solutions
Why This Role Matters This role is central to our growth strategy. As organizations move beyond experimentation, they need partners who can redesign workflows, prove business outcomes, and scale AI into production. You will help shape strategic client relationships, create momentum in the market, and turn transformation opportunities into long‑term partnerships.
