Digital Strategist (Marketing & AI) [Remote]

Join our U.S. team in a role that moves beyond traditional consulting. You'll help modern CMOs and digital leaders design, build, and scale intelligent growth systems — grounded in real storytelling, not buzzwords. You'll split your time between shaping new client propositions and leading strategy on live engagements, working directly with CMOs and digital leaders at global brands. This is a U.S. hybrid role. We're prioritizing candidates based near major metro hubs — NYC, Boston, or Philadelphia — for proximity to offices, colleagues, and client stakeholders. There's no fixed in-office schedule, but you should be comfortable working on-site periodically and traveling occasionally as client and team needs require. About Empathy Lab by EPAM: Empathy Lab is EPAM's AI-native creative agency: we believe that in an era reshaped by artificial intelligence, technology should make experiences feel more human, not less. We operate at the unique intersection of business strategy, human creativity and advanced engineering. By bridging EPAM's world-class software engineering and AI capabilities with top-tier creative and strategic digital services, we turn complex technical solutions into deeply engaging brand experiences.
