Conduct structured discovery, shadowing teams, interviewing stakeholders, and mapping end-to-end processes, to identify where AI can eliminate, redesign, or dramatically accelerate work
Design, build, and deploy AI-powered automations, agents, and internal tools that reduce time spent on repetitive, low-value-add tasks while improving the quality and consistency of outputs
Integrate large language models, agentic frameworks, and automation platforms into internal workflows with appropriate guardrails, error handling, and human-in-the-loop checkpoints
Measure everything: establish baselines before intervention, track adoption and usage patterns post-deployment, and quantify productivity impact in terms of hours saved, error rates reduced, and cycle times compressed
Build reusable patterns, templates, and playbooks so that successful automations in one function can be adapted and scaled across others
Collaborate closely with the engineering and product organizations to ensure internal automation efforts align with our broader technology strategy and do not create shadow IT risk
Requirements
We are looking for a builder to help lead our ‘AI for Work’ efforts.
Together with the Director of AI Strategy and Enablement, you will build the internal AI infrastructure that makes our teams more efficient.
