Consultant, Software EngineeringUDig is seeking an Engineering Consultant who is ready to own their work, grow their consulting craft, and deliver real value to clients across a range of industries. This is the core delivery role at UDig - you'll contribute meaningfully to complex engineering engagements, develop independent judgment on technical problems, and begin building the client relationships that define a consulting career. You bring 3-5 years of hands-on engineering experience and are ready to do more than execute tickets.
What You'll Do:- Deliver full-stack engineering solutions as a contributing team member on client engagements - backend, frontend, and data-integrated systems.
- Design, build, and deploy cloud-native applications following established architectural patterns and engineering standards.
- Actively incorporate AI-assisted development into your daily workflow - using AI tools to accelerate implementation, review, and testing - and share what's working with your team.
- Participate in and contribute to code and design reviews, agile ceremonies, and delivery check-ins with increasing confidence.
- Begin engaging directly with client stakeholders: presenting work, asking clarifying questions, and translating technical concepts for non-technical audiences.
- Mentor Associate Consultants through code reviews, pairing, and sharing hard-won lessons.
- Identify and surface opportunities to improve delivery quality or team practices on your engagements.
What You'll Bring: - 3-5 years of experience in software or data engineering, ideally with exposure to client-facing or consulting environments.
- Technical delivery ownership: you take end-to-end accountability for the features and systems you build.
- Developing consulting instincts - you think about the client's problem, not just the engineering task.
- Strong problem decomposition instincts - you consider edge cases, weigh tradeoffs between approaches, and can explain your technical decisions clearly.
- Proficiency in backend API development and at least one frontend framework (e.g., React, Angular, Vue); comfortable working across multiple languages and frameworks.
- Working knowledge of cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, or GCP), relational databases, and DevOps fundamentals (CI/CD, containerization).
- Comfort navigating both software and data engineering contexts - reading from and writing to data systems, contributing to pipelines, and understanding how data shapes product decisions.
- Active fluency with AI development tools - you use them regularly, can evaluate their output critically, and are building your own practices around AI-assisted delivery.
- Experience building software in enterprise team settings, following established standards and contributing to shared codebases.
- Strong communication skills with the ability to explain technical work to varied audiences.
- Previous consulting or client management experience is preferred.
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Information Systems, or a related field - or equivalent demonstrated experience.
