About the Role
 
Brillio is seeking an experienced business transformation and product leader to serve as a Forward Deployed Strategist. In this role, you will embed directly within a complex business domain, rapidly understand how the operation works, identify high-value problems, and lead cross-functional teams from problem definition through implementation, adoption, and measurable value realization.The FDS operates at the intersection of business strategy, process design, product, technology, data, organizational change, and executive decision-making. This is not a traditional advisory role that concludes with a recommendation, nor is it a project coordination role centered on schedules and status reporting. You will stay with the problem, shape the future state, work directly with solution builders, drive decisions and adoption, and use evidence to determine whether a solution should scale, change, transfer, pause, or stop.

Preferred Locations: Minneapolis, Chicago, Dallas, NYC

  • Translate ambiguous business challenges into clear problem statements, solution concepts, priorities, and actionable plans.

  • Define desired outcomes, scope, success metrics, and roadmaps aligned with customer needs and business objectives.

  • Evaluate and apply AI, automation, and emerging technologies to deliver measurable business value.

  • Lead cross-functional collaboration across engineering, product, data, architecture, operations, compliance, finance, and business teams.

  • Drive execution by managing priorities, dependencies, risks, tradeoffs, and key decisions throughout delivery.

  • Partner with technical teams to address data, integrations, governance, security, scalability, cost, and production requirements.

  • Guide the transition from solution design and development through deployment, adoption, and integration into business operations.

  • Engage stakeholders and end users to gather feedback, improve workflows, and drive organizational change and sustained adoption.

  • Establish ownership, operating processes, and performance measures to ensure solutions deliver lasting value.

  • Track KPIs, business impact, costs, and outcomes post-deployment to identify opportunities for improvement.

  • Technical fluency across AI, automation, data, software delivery, integration, and enterprise technology, sufficient to work directly with engineering teams and challenge assumptions.
  • Experience establishing business cases, baselines, success measures, and value-realization plans.
