00 — Summary
Applied-AI operator embedded in an enterprise customer-facing team for 8 years at GLG, a PE-backed global expert network. The AI person on a non-AI team: deployed LLM-assisted workflows across my own team under personal license, drove their adoption, and contributed to the internal and client-facing AI enablement strategy conversations as that work scaled. Owns the full engagement lifecycle for a $14M+ portfolio across Deloitte, Accenture, Gartner, KPMG, AlixPartners, Kearney, and Roland Berger, translating ambiguous enterprise needs into structured workflows and feeding field insight back into how the organization operates. Builds the analytical and technical layer hands-on: Python, SQL, dbt, and the Anthropic API across self-shipped projects, with Google Advanced Data Analytics certification and the full Anthropic AI Fluency credential set. Looking for an Applied AI, AI Enablement, or AI Workflow role at a remote-first, async, output-judged company.

02 — Professional experience
GLG
Senior Manager, Service
- Deployed AI-assisted workflows using Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, and in-house LLM tools to accelerate account analysis, QBR prep, escalation drafting, and data synthesis, building the workflows independently under personal license and driving their adoption across my team.
- Contributed to internal and client-facing AI enablement strategy as GLG scaled its home-grown AI tooling, bringing the embedded practitioner perspective into cross-team discussions on where LLM workflows fit, what to standardize, and how to operationalize them safely for non-technical users.
- Own end-to-end engagement and delivery for a 14M+ enterprise portfolio, managing rollout, enablement, health monitoring, and expansion across Deloitte, Accenture, Gartner, KPMG, AlixPartners, Kearney, and Roland Berger from a single accountable position.
- Translate ambiguous enterprise needs into structured workflows: scope deliverables with internal product and operations teams, define success criteria, set timelines, and ensure execution at scale across concurrent engagements.
- Built custom Salesforce health-scoring dashboards and automated reporting that surfaced account risk early, gave leadership a live view of portfolio health, and reduced reactive escalations.
- Drove 5% YoY portfolio growth by mapping new use cases and operational gaps through structured discovery, and led enablement sessions for stakeholder layers from end users to senior executives.
Manager, Client Solutions — Team Lead
- Founded and scaled an internal Center of Excellence from scratch: built lifecycle playbooks, onboarding templates, and Agile-driven delivery cadences adopted org-wide, reducing ramp time and standardizing quality.
- Managed a team of client solutions specialists while carrying a personal enterprise book, bridging IC delivery and people management through a high-growth phase.
- Built renewal forecasting models and pipeline tracking in Salesforce that improved quarterly accuracy and surfaced at-risk accounts earlier.
Associate → Senior Client Solutions Manager
- Grew from IC to senior managing complex enterprise accounts across consulting, financial services, and technology, promoted twice in four years.
- Built custom Salesforce reporting infrastructure for account-health visibility that became the team standard.

Brain Dump — AI Agent for Executive-Function Support
Anthropic API · Cloudflare Workers · Structured JSON · Vanilla JS · samievargas.com/brain-dump
Built and shipped an AI agent that turns unstructured brain dumps into structured, energy-state-aware task plans, architected around a Cloudflare proxy to the Anthropic API with structured JSON output and energy-state branching logic. Put in front of early users, whose feedback drove a single-step simplification to the capture flow.
Signal — Account Intelligence for CS Professionals
Anthropic API · Multi-Call LLM Architecture · Source-Weighted Prompts · samievargas.com/signal
Designed a multi-call LLM workflow that reads messy account files for second-order sentiment and surfaces revenue risk, relationship health, and pre-call briefs through source-weighted prompts and an analysis-focus toggle. Validated with early users, including a senior CS leader, and refined to a single-step entry flow from their feedback.
Instacart dbt + ML — When Does Data Become Trustworthy?
dbt Cloud · BigQuery · SQL · scikit-learn · github.com/SamieVargas/instacart-project
Built a staging → mart dbt pipeline across 3.4M orders with 35 passing tests; found a 0.60 reorder ratio hides a 3x segment gap (0.221 new vs 0.670 veteran users), validated with random forest (AUC 0.989 vs 0.857).
ATX Foodie — Public Health Compliance Analysis
Python · Socrata API · folium · kaggle.com/code/samievargas/atx-foodie-inspection
Pulled 21,160 City of Austin inspection records via API; built a brand compliance scorecard and folium choropleth, finding follow-up inspections score 8 points below routine visits, evidence of a broken corrective loop.
