Job description

The Next Chapter of AI Isn't Written Yet. Help Shape It.

What if your next move wasn't about joining an established AI practice, but helping build something that doesn't exist yet?

At Sofigate, we're building a new Disruptive AI & Business Renewal team to help ambitious organisations rethink how they create value, operate, and compete in the age of AI.

We believe AI will reshape organisations more profoundly than cloud, digitalisation, or agile transformation ever did. While most organisations know change is coming, few know how to navigate it. Instead of helping clients optimise yesterday's operating models, we're helping them design what comes next.

We're not interested in AI for the sake of AI, or strategies that look brilliant on slides but never make it into the real world. We want to challenge established thinking, create new approaches, and turn AI's potential into measurable business value.

Our customers are bringing us real challenges and bold ambitions. They're looking for people who can connect business and technology, think beyond conventional solutions, and make meaningful change happen.

That's where you come in.

You'll have the opportunity to shape our AI capabilities, methodologies, and market offerings from the ground up while working with leading organisations on complex transformation challenges.

You'll help define not only client solutions, but also how Sofigate approaches AI, what offerings we bring to market, and what conversations we lead in the industry.

This is an opportunity to build and deliver.

What You'll Do?

As part of our Disruptive AI & Business Renewal team, you will:

• Shape Sofigate's approach to AI-enabled business renewal and enterprise transformation.
• Help clients move from isolated AI pilots to scalable, production-ready solutions and enterprise-wide adoption.
• Lead the design of enterprise-grade AI, GenAI, Agentic AI, and data solutions, including architectures, operating models, and governance.
• Advise senior executives on how AI can reshape business models, operations, and competitive advantage.
• Develop new methodologies, reusable capabilities, and productized AI offerings.
• Contribute to thought leadership and help establish Sofigate's position in the AI market.
• Challenge conventional thinking and help define the next generation of AI-enabled business transformation.

Who We're Looking For?

We're looking for an AI Thought Leader and Architect who combines deep technical expertise with business understanding and strong consulting skills.

You see the bigger picture. You're able to challenge established thinking, influence senior stakeholders, and transform emerging AI opportunities into practical, scalable solutions.

You are comfortable operating across technology, business, and transformation discussions. Whether the topic is enterprise architecture, operating models, governance, business strategy, or organisational change, you're able to connect the dots and help organisations move forward.

Most importantly, you're excited by the opportunity to create something new.

We're not looking for someone to follow best practices.

We're looking for someone who helps create them.

Why Join Us?

AI is moving from experimentation to enterprise-wide reinvention.

This shift creates a rare opportunity to influence not only individual projects, but also the future direction of organisations, industries, and the consulting market itself.

Joining now means becoming one of the people who will help shape our vision, define our offerings, and build a capability designed to stay ahead of where the market is heading, not follow where it has already been.

You'll have the opportunity to influence:

• How Sofigate approaches AI-enabled transformation.
• The services and offerings we bring to market.
• How organisations rethink business models and value creation.
• The conversations shaping the future of AI in the Nordic market.

What We Offer?

• Challenging customer assignments ranging from large international enterprises to purposeful public sector organisations.
• A unique opportunity to build and shape a new AI-driven business capability from the ground up.
• Opportunities for professional growth, learning, and thought leadership.
• Full 2.5 days/month of vacation accrual starting from the beginning of your employment.
• Shareholder program, allowing you to become a part-owner of Sofigate.
• Extended healthcare insurance and a wellbeing programme available to all employees.

How We Work?

At Sofigate, we are involved in cutting-edge projects that are shaping the future. We have an international, vibrant, and entrepreneurial culture characterised by openness, trust, and flexibility.

We value every Sofigator and strive to build a diverse, equal, and inclusive workplace where every voice is heard and everyone can become the best version of themselves.

We support a healthy work-life balance and encourage continuous learning, curiosity, and personal growth.

Growth is not just a corporate thing for us. It is personal.

There is so much to explore and learn within our community and together with our customers that having a bit of fun along the way is unavoidable.

Ready to help shape what's next?

This position is based in Finland, preferred location is the Helsinki metropolitan area. We believe in the value of in-person collaboration and work in a hybrid model, typically spending a few days per week at the office. The positions are permanent and full-time.
