About The Shop:
The Shop is Sparq’s internal proving ground for AI-native consulting. When our consultants are between client engagements, they build here: in small, self-forming teams, on one-week sprints, demoing real working prototypes every Friday. It’s where we sharpen the craft of delivery and turn ideas into things we can put in front of clients.
It runs at the pace of a startup inside a consultancy. We’re looking for the person who makes the show happen every week.
A Day in the Life:
The Shop’s leadership sets the vision and the energy. You make the work get better, week over week. You’re the stage manager: you hold the runsheet, you know where everyone is supposed to be, and you give the straight feedback that turns a rough demo into a sharp one.
This is a high-coordination, high-ownership role for someone who came up in consulting, can read both a room and a build. Someone who is energized by how AI is changing the work.
- Own the weekly rhythm (Monday kickoff to Friday demo) so nothing slips through the cracks.
- You'll help onboard colleagues into the shop, turn them into teams, and help shape their growth with projects and problem sets.
- Watch the Friday demos and give specific, useful feedback: what landed, what didn’t, and how to make it better.
- Help builders get unstuck — often by helping them say clearly what they’re trying to build, not by writing code for them. ("You’re not blocked because you don’t know Python. You’re blocked because we haven’t defined the problem yet.")
- Coach a consulting mindset: understand the business problem, find the champion, challenge the assumption.
- Be the operational point of contact for The Shop: the person who knows who, what, when, and where.
- Give clear, fair feedback to our practice leaders on how people are engaging and growing.
- Help us decide which parts of this job should become software/tooling - and build toward that.
What it takes:
You don’t need every one of these on day one. We’re looking for someone who is clearly strong on the essentials and shows real promise to grow into the rest.
- Consulting background — ideally 2-3 years client-facing at a mid-size firm. You’ve run projects and sat across the table from clients.
- You give hard feedback well — direct, specific, and kind enough that people come back for more.
- You’re organized in a way that makes chaos manageable — you build structure where it’s missing.
- You’re AI-forward: comfortable with AI tools, curious about how they’re applied, and clear-eyed about how they change what “blocked” means.
- You can tell when a “technical” answer is real and when it’s fluff — without being a developer yourself.
Nice to Have:
- You used to write code, or work close enough to it to direct traffic confidently.
- Conceptual familiarity with Git and the software development lifecycle.
- You can make a crisp short video or a clean one-pager.
- Depth in a vertical — financial services, healthcare, supply chain, or similar.
- AI-first culture — you’ll work alongside the latest tools and help shape how we use them.
Regardless of your specific role, we seek individuals who are excited to explore, adopt, and evangelize AI tools and methodologies. If you have experience in AI or a proven track record of rapidly learning and mentoring others on emerging tech, you’ll fit right in.

Embedded alongside your teams, we chart the course, build with precision, and navigate complexity until your outcomes are achieved. Built to solve, not just to build.
