Ensure delivery against scope and milestones by identifying risks, removing blockers, coordinating vendors/licenses, and aligning cross-functional teams

Participate in relevant strategic scoping for enterprise-wide workforce strategy and AI enablement
Lead deep discovery and user research (interviews, surveys, workflow analysis) to identify high-friction points in the employee lifecycle (e.g., mid-year reviews, finance workflows, onboarding, etc.) where AI can deliver outsized value
Rigorously define user problems before solutions are engineered, distinguishing between needs that require technical builds (e.g., AI Agents) and those that require process changes or literacy interventions
Design and execute non-technical experiments (e.g., light prototypes, process pilots) to validate business value and user trust before committing technical resources
Act as the primary strategist for the "AI Champions" network, evolving it from a passive audience into an active engine for peer-to-peer training, feedback collection, and decentralized adoption
Define trust requirements for our tools by partnering with AI Governance to translate complex ethical considerations (e.g., hallucination risks) into clear, user-friendly features and guidelines that build user confidence
Document repeatable models so divisions can adopt solutions with confidence and consistency
