What positions should I be looking at that would suit this skill set? I am not an expert in coding, but I like to think I am good at working with minimal guidance and translating findings to common folks. Unfortunately I don’t have the ability to do this often at Deloitte - doing some PMO, random proposals, etc. okay but not exactly what I want to do long term. Any thoughts or advice? I am coming from engineering undergrad.

As someone in your shoes not too long ago, I would say develop those skills outside project work (firm initiative) then get on those kinds of projects, then exit. The skills you enjoy have high market value

And Deloitte (as well as other firms) are the best way to develop them fast.
