Company: CompassX Group
Location: Atlanta
Posted on: April 1, 2026

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 Architect with deep GenAI fluency who can do two things exceptionally well: identify where Generative AI can create real value inside a complex enterprise - and then build it. This is a client-facing role that sits at the intersection of strategic advisory and hands-on technical delivery. You will work directly with client teams to surface opportunities, shape solutions, and lead the technical implementation of AI-driven applications from concept through to production - leveraging modern AI-native build platforms like Emergent and Figma Make to accelerate the path from idea to working product. CompassX runs lean, high-performance teams that solve some of the most complex challenges within large enterprises. We move fast, we leverage AI across our delivery model, and the people who thrive here are as comfortable whiteboarding a solution with a senior client stakeholder as they are architecting the system that delivers it. High preference will be given to candidates who are based in Ohio to be close to our clients there. There may also be some travel requirements depending on the client. We are currently set up to employ individuals who reside and work from the following states: California, Washington, Texas, Oregon, Colorado, Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Georgia . We will also consider candidates from other surrounding states. What You'll Do Partner with client teams to identify, evaluate, and prioritize opportunities where Generative AI and emerging AI tooling can drive meaningful operational or business impact. You bring the technical lens - they bring the domain knowledge. Translate identified opportunities into concrete, production-ready technical designs. Own the architecture decisions that determine how AI capabilities are built, integrated, and scaled within an enterprise environment. Lead hands-on technical implementation of AI-driven applications using platforms like Emergent and Figma Make - from early prototype through to live, secured, enterprise-grade deployment. You are a builder, not just an advisor. Create reusable patterns, frameworks, and technical standards that accelerate delivery across multiple workstreams. What you build should make the next solution faster, not start from scratch. Ensure that solutions are built with automation and AI-assisted capabilities at their core, not bolted on afterward, reducing manual effort and improving long-term efficiency. Work alongside client architecture, security, and engineering teams to ensure solutions are aligned with enterprise standards, performant, and built to last. You can sell a modern approach to a skeptical stakeholder and back it up technically. What You'll Bring 8–12 years across software engineering, solution architecture, or a closely related discipline, with meaningful hands-on experience in Generative AI application development. Deep, practical knowledge of the Generative AI landscape, such as LLMs, retrieval-augmented generation, and AI-assisted development. Hands-on experience with AI-native build platforms is essential; familiarity with Emergent or Figma Make is a strong advantage, and experience with comparable tools such as v0, Bolt, Lovable, Cursor, or Replit Agent is equally valued. Proven ability to take a solution from whiteboard to production. Comfortable across the stack: application layer, data integration, cloud infrastructure, and enterprise security considerations. Experience in a consulting or client-facing delivery environment. You build credibility quickly, communicate technical concepts to non-technical audiences without oversimplifying, and know how to create momentum in complex organizations. You design for reuse, scale, and maintainability - not just the immediate deliverable. You think in patterns and platforms, not one-off builds. You use AI tooling as a core part of how you work - not as a novelty. You are faster and more effective because of it, and you bring that mindset into the teams you work with. 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 $150,000 - $195,000 a year We would also be open to contractors on a 1099/C2C basis. 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. These tools assist our recruitment team but do not replace human judgment. Final hiring decisions are ultimately made by humans.
