Artificial Intelligence (AI)Information TechnologyMachine Learning
Responsibilities
Tight articulation and quantifiable specification of the challenges and/or opportunities they hope to address through the application of AI/ML
Insider-level understanding of the nature of their business - from operational realities to legacy product roadmaps - acquired quickly and arrayed against a necessary grasp of the clients' external strategic landscape
Fresh insights into the organizational, leadership, cultural, structural, and process realities that define the context in which our solutions must succeed
Evaluation of a client's organizational assets - current and potential - based on a deep understanding of their full data assets and ecosystem (internal and external) as well as their core and differentiating core competencies
Tightly specified and actionable recommendations - implicating all of the above - that promise to advance their successful application of AI/ML, including assessments of feasibility and potential impact and options for roadmapping activities several years into the future
Someone who can independently conduct SME interviews across a wide diversity of backgrounds and functions, quickly isolating core stakeholder, organizational and engagement dynamics that could affect the validity and/or feasibility of our recommendations
Someone who can confidently and credibly hold a mirror up to a client, showing them things they are often not aware of and may be reluctant to admit
Someone who can apply a product management and/or design thinking mindset to organizing client recommendations and roadmaps
Someone who can collaborate seamlessly with some of the brightest engineers on the planet on engagements that require strategic alignment of engineering activities to ensure maximal client impact
A people person. Someone whose emotional intelligence and ability to communicate to a wide range of audiences (C-suite to IC, technical and non-technical) in a wide range of scenarios is a proven strength
Strong skills in business quantitative analysis including how business data is operationally originated and curated, used to generate financial reporting, capable of telling 'stories' about how organizations function, applied to compelling business cases supporting corporate valuation
An interest in working collaboratively with data scientists on the Strategy Team to conduct exploratory data analysis and formulate and test specific hypotheses
A basic fluency in data as it is applied in AI modeling. You have some understanding of different data types, what data governance is and why it's important, what a machine learning model is and how it's trained, etc
An interest in ethical AI is a must, but you don't need to have experience in it
An appreciation of autonomy, research, people, and technology. This role is very interdisciplinary
