Collaboration
You work well in a multidisciplinary team and with clients. You align actively, share knowledge and keep shared goals central.
AI
Consultant
The bridge between problem and solution. You don't work on tickets from a head office; you step into the client's operation to build solutions that actually work. From better healthcare and smarter government to breakthroughs in logistics, energy and science.
What will you do?
As a AI Consultant you're the technical link between client and team. You understand that software fails without the right context, so you spend as much time talking with the client as writing code. Stakeholder management and advice weigh as heavily as the building itself. You enjoy short, fast projects with a lot of client interaction, working mainly at the front end where much still has to be shaped and where you demonstrate the business value.
- You get to grips with client processes and data challenges, both on site with the client and at the office.
- You shift the focus from shipping features to adding business value.
- You work with modern frameworks, cloud environments and CI/CD.
- You help shape architecture and technical choices.
- You work with clients and your team of developers and engineers to make maximum impact.
- You write clear documentation and carry out code reviews.
A workday at Researchable
You start with the stand-up, but instead of coding blindly you dive into the client's context. You see users' challenges up close, analyse complex data flows and translate them into concrete solutions for your team. In the afternoon you advise stakeholders on the course to take and manage expectations around scope.
You don't celebrate a shipped feature, but a solved business problem the client is genuinely helped by.
You don't celebrate a shipped feature, you celebrate a solved business problem.

Who are you?

You think along on technical choices, bring in new ideas and dare to work on things you're not yet an expert in. You enjoy working in a team, communicate clearly with clients and colleagues across disciplines, and take ownership of the code, the performance and the success of the product.

We're building an inclusive team where everyone feels welcome, whether you're from the Netherlands or from further afield. We steer on craftsmanship and behaviour: instead of hard KPIs we work with competency reviews and reflection moments, three times a year.
The team
You work closely with sales, experienced consultants, developers, data engineers and AI specialists. We bring in UX expertise per project, so there's always a good match for the audience and the challenge.
