• Partner with technical and business stakeholders to translate strategic objectives into scalable AI solutions.

• Ensure AI solutions are secure, governed and aligned with responsible AI principles.

• Measure and demonstrate the business impact and ROI of AI initiatives.

• A degree in Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence, Software Engineering, Information Systems or a related field (or equivalent practical experience).

• Proven experience implementing AI, automation or intelligent business solutions within a commercial environment.
