[Hiring] Senior Technology & Strategy Consultant @Exerizon

Role Description

We're looking for a consultant who moves seamlessly between the boardroom and the engineering team — and is credible in both worlds. We want someone who walks into an organization, diagnoses the problem, designs a solution, and takes ownership of it — from the first executive workshop to the moment the change actually works. This is a role for an operator with a strategic mindset.

What you'll deliver:

• IT operating model design — Not just for DevOps — for all of IT: relationships between Business, Product, Architecture, Delivery, and Operations. Team topologies, boundaries of responsibility, decision-making processes, and interfaces between functions.
• Target Architecture Landscape (TAL) — Leading TAL initiatives end-to-end: capability mapping, application analysis using the Gartner TIME model, complexity reduction, modernization roadmaps, and TCO optimization of the application portfolio.
• Practical AI advisory — Real decisions: where AI makes business sense, how to integrate it into existing architecture, how to prepare the organization and its data, and how to measure return.
• IT investment ROI analysis and prioritization — Justifying decisions with numbers — modeling costs, outcomes, and risks of initiatives.
• Engineering organization effectiveness reviews — Diagnosing why delivery is slower than it should be. Metrics, observation, conclusions, and a remediation plan.
• Client decision support for modernization and transformation — Being a sparring partner for Engineering Management on decisions with real financial and organizational consequences.

Qualifications

• Has seen the software delivery process across different organizations, scales, and maturity levels.
• Has written code commercially — enough to engage with architects and developers.
• Thinks architecturally about all of IT — including systems, integrations, data, and scalability.
• Understands that technology's real constraints lie in the organization and operating model.
• Can communicate effectively with both a CTO and a senior developer.
• Is interested in AI, automation, and new trends — with the ability to discern real value from hype.
• Calculates ROI naturally — has an entrepreneurial mindset.
• Takes ownership of outcomes — not just deliverables.
• Is a Polish native speaker and knows English on a business-professional basis.

Requirements

• Big plus if you have failed as an architect or leader and learned from it.
• Have conducted audits, assessments, or architecture reviews for external clients.
• Have held a role responsible for P&L, IT budget, or initiative portfolio prioritization.
• Know that PowerPoint rarely solves problems, but a well-written document often does.
• Want to build influence at a strategic level while engaging with technical realities.

Benefits

• Work on real client problems — not theoretical frameworks.
• A high degree of autonomy and real influence on project execution.
• Growth in both business and technology — without having to choose one.
• Direct exposure to clients' top management — CIOs, CTOs, and management boards.
• An environment of people who enjoy thinking and learning fast.
• No corporate theater — processes exist to help, not to fill time.

Company Description

A fair warning: This is not a comfortable role to coast through. Most of this work involves intense thinking on hard problems, rapidly learning new business contexts, taking responsibility for recommendations, and delivering tangible results in an environment where the client expects value from day one. It's not for everyone. But if you recognize yourself in this description — please take a chance to apply.
