Lead end-to-end AI engagements for enterprise clients — from strategy framing to production deployment — within a boutique that values precision, autonomy, and measurable impact.
About the role
As a Senior AI Consultant at ProActys, you serve as the primary trusted advisor for C-level stakeholders navigating their AI transformation. You combine deep technical fluency with business acumen to design AI strategies that deliver tangible, measurable value — not just prototypes that never leave the lab.
You work across sectors (financial services, pharma, manufacturing, public sector) and across the full engagement lifecycle: opportunity assessment, use-case prioritisation, solution architecture, vendor evaluation, implementation oversight, and post-launch performance tracking.
Key responsibilities
* Lead AI strategy workshops and maturity assessments for enterprise clients, translating complex technical possibilities into actionable business roadmaps
* Design and oversee end-to-end AI project delivery — from data readiness audits to model deployment and change management
* Conduct use-case discovery sessions, build business cases with ROI modelling, and present recommendations to executive committees
* Architect AI solutions leveraging LLMs, computer vision, NLP, and predictive analytics, selecting the right tool for each business problem
* Manage relationships with technology partners (cloud providers, AI platform vendors) and coordinate multi-stakeholder project teams
* Mentor junior specialists and contribute to ProActys thought leadership through Insights articles, conference talks, and internal knowledge-sharing
* Ensure all AI implementations comply with the EU AI Act, Swiss data protection regulations, and ethical AI principles
Your profile
* Master's degree or higher in Computer Science, Data Science, Engineering, Mathematics, or a related quantitative field
* 5+ years of experience in AI/ML consulting, data science, or AI product development — at least 2 years in a client-facing advisory role
* Proven track record of delivering AI projects from strategy through to production in enterprise settings
* Strong understanding of ML/DL frameworks (PyTorch, TensorFlow), cloud platforms (Azure, AWS, GCP), and MLOps best practices
* Excellent communication skills — able to translate technical concepts for non-technical executives and board members
* Fluent in English; German and/or French is a strong plus
* Swiss work permit or EU/EFTA citizenship
Nice to have
* Experience with LLM-based applications (RAG architectures, fine-tuning, prompt engineering at scale)
* Knowledge of AI governance frameworks (ISO 42001, NIST AI RMF) and the EU AI Act classification system
* Familiarity with regulated industries (banking, insurance, pharma) and their specific compliance requirements
* Certifications such as AWS ML Specialty, Azure AI Engineer, or Google Cloud Professional ML Engineer
