Our client is looking for a Agentic Automation Senior Consultant to join their team!

This is a remote/full-time/6-month contract position
Hourly based on experience: $70-$80/hr
 
IMPACT OF THIS TECHNICAL ROLE:
This Senior Consultant will lead the first phase of a broader AI initiative at a large U.S. financial institution: an internally packaged, AI-driven toolkit that lets the customer's teams design and deliver Itential automation workflows using agentic AI. Building on Itential's open-source Builder Skills framework, a spec-driven delivery model in which AI agents carry automation from requirements through design, build, test, and as-built documentation, you will turn a stakeholder-built proof of concept into a production-quality, well-documented package that release engineers and developers can download and use.

This is an independent, hands-on leadership role. You will own the technical direction and delivery of the package with oversight from a manager and access to our client and customer staff as needed. This is the first phase of a larger AI program, with potential for follow-on work.
 
A DAY IN THE LIFE:

• Understand existing customer requirements and come up with a design for implementing production quality solutions aligned with the Builder Skills framework and its customization model
• Design and build custom skills, organization- and team-level skill customizations, helper scripts, and spec templates that encode the customer's standards, naming conventions, security policies, and change processes
• Incorporate the customer's existing requirements and completed automation work into a single, cohesive packaged solution
• Expand use-case coverage by identifying, prioritizing, and building new skills and specs with customer teams
• Package, version, and distribute the solution entirely within the customer's internal systems, including a repeatable process for incorporating upstream Builder Skills updates
• Ensure skills work effectively with the customer's approved AI tools
• Build evaluations and test approaches that validate skills produce correct, consistent Itential workflows and assets
• Lead discovery sessions with stakeholders, release engineers, and developers to gather requirements and feedback
• Present regular demos to stakeholders and leadership, and incorporate feedback into iterative releases
• Produce clear documentation and training materials, run hands-on enablement sessions, and execute a clean handoff to customer teams
• Track progress, identify risks and blockers, and communicate status to our client and customer leadership
• Work within strict security and data-handling controls, including virtual desktop-only access

WHAT YOU BRING:

• Strong independence and ownership, with the ability to lead a project end to end with minimal direction
• Ability to deliver a clear plan and production-ready results
• Passion for customer experience and success
• Honesty and empathy to those around you on a daily basis
• A focused and solution oriented approach necessary to see projects through to completion
• Confidence and decisiveness in moving the ball forward while being flexible and open to feedback
• Ability to demonstrate emerging AI technology in a way that resonates with engineers and executives alike

 
WHAT YOU HAVE:

• Hands-on experience building with AI coding assistants and agentic tools (e.g., GitHub Copilot, Claude Code, Cursor), including authoring custom instructions, agent skills, prompts, or plugins
• Demonstrated ability to design, package, and distribute reusable developer tooling for other engineers
• Strong Python development skills and comfort with JSON, YAML, and Markdown-based configuration
• Experience evaluating and testing AI-generated output for quality, correctness, and consistency
• Strong Git skills, including branching, versioning, release management, and maintaining an internal mirror or fork of an upstream project
• Experience in a customer-facing or consulting role, including requirements gathering, demos, and presenting to leadership
• Excellent technical writing and the ability to train users with varied skill levels
• Working familiarity with network or infrastructure automation concepts

NICE TO HAVE:

• Experience with the Itential Platform (workflows, templates, MOP, Golden Config, Lifecycle Manager, JSON Forms) or Itential Automation Gateway
• Experience with other automation or orchestration platforms and the ability to ramp up quickly on Itential
• Experience delivering in highly regulated or security-restricted environments; financial services preferred
• Familiarity with Ansible, Model Context Protocol (MCP), or REST API integrations
• Familiarity with spec-driven development or structured software delivery lifecycles
• Experience with CI/CD pipelines
• CCNA/CCNP or equivalent networking knowledge
