Working directly with customers across financial reporting, sustainability disclosure, tax transparency, audit, and other regulated domains, this role designs, builds, and deploys AI-powered solutions on the Workiva platform. Success requires balancing innovation with the governance, auditability, and scalability needed for production use in highly regulated environments.\nThis is not a traditional implementation role. The Solution Development Consultant combines customer-facing solution delivery with AI application development, including agent-based workflows, prompt engineering, system integration, and solution architecture. In close partnership with customer stakeholders, Sales, Product Management, and Engineering, this role defines new solutions through deeply understanding customer needs.\nThe SDC works within a purpose-built operating model alongside Product Management and Engineering. Product owns solution strategy and roadmap; Engineering builds and maintains the platform; the SDC owns what happens at the edge, deploying existing and emerging platform capabilities against real customer problems while continuously feeding discoveries back to Product and Engineering. This role solves immediate customer problems while creating reusable patterns and insights that help shape future platform capabilities.\nWhat You'll Do\nOwn the hardest customer problems end-to-end\nTake ambiguous, first-of-their-kind customer problems and drive them from prototype to stable production across multiple deployments. You own technical delivery, and you own whether it actually works for the customer\nDesign and deploy AI-powered workflows\nDesign and deploy AI-powered workflows that address real customer challenges, building, testing, and operationalizing solutions while establishing appropriate controls for human review, exception management, and governance in regulated environments. The specific techniques evolve constantly; what matters is the ability to work at the frontier, figure out what hasn't been figured out yet, and turn that into something stable and repeatable\nDrive customer outcomes\nServe as a trusted technical advisor to customer regulatory, operations, and IT stakeholders. Facilitate executive discussions, technical workshops, and solution reviews while helping customers achieve measurable business outcomes and long-term adoption\nShape the next generation of customer solutions through hands-on development\nFieldwork is where the next generation of platform capability comes from. Turn recurring customer problems and real-world outcomes into the evaluation criteria, patterns, and priorities that Product and Engineering build into the platform. The frontier moves because of what is found at the edge\nContribute to a compounding knowledge base\nWhat you discover at the customer becomes what the team knows collectively. You'll contribute patterns, methods, and field learnings into the shared knowledge environment, building a compounding base of expertise that every SDC draws on. That includes peer mentoring, but the real contribution is the institutional knowledge you build, not just the individual relationships\nWhat You'll Need\nMinimum Qualifications\nBachelor's degree in a related field or equivalent practical experience\n5+ years of experience delivering software solutions to enterprise customers\nPreferred Qualifications\nExperience with reporting and analytics technology, financial, sustainability, governance, risk, compliance, or adjacent domains\nExperience configuring, customizing, and delivering software solutions in customer environments, owning complex implementations from requirements through deployment and adoption\nAbility to engage credibly with both technical and business stakeholders, including regulatory teams, IT, and executive sponsors\nFamiliarity with enterprise platforms such as SAP, Oracle, ServiceNow, Salesforce, or comparable ecosystems and common integration patterns\nExperience working alongside external implementation partners, advisory firms, systems integrators, or audit firms\nKnowledge of prompt engineering, agent-based architectures, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), evaluation frameworks, and AI application lifecycle management\nTravel Requirements and Working Conditions\n25% Travel for internal meetings\nReliable internet access for any period of time, working remotely and not in a Workiva office\nHow You’ll Be Rewarded\n✅ Salary range in the US: $111,000.00 - $178,000.00\n✅ A discretionary bonus typically paid annually\n✅ Restricted Stock Units granted at time of hire\n✅ 401(k) match and comprehensive employee benefits package\nThe salary range represents the low and high end of the salary range for this job in the US.
