Key Roles and Responsibilities:
* We are seeking a skilled individual to lead delivery for multiple AI initiatives. This role will involve blending product ownership, delivery management, and AI-savvy stakeholder leadership.
* You will be responsible for owning outcomes, organizing work for fast iteration, managing expectations with demanding business and technology partners, and collaborating closely with an AI Architect and engineering leads to turn AI opportunities into clear, shippable increments.
You are expected to be comfortable moving at a high tempo, getting to the point quickly, and keeping teams and stakeholders aligned while AI projects evolve rapidly.
Main Responsibilities Include:
* Translate ambiguous AI-related business goals into clear problem statements, prioritized backlogs, and sequenced delivery plans.
* Owning the order of work: define MVP, prioritize by impact and effort, and ensure the first outcomes are meaningful and measurable.
* Manage expectations with business, technical, and partner stakeholders (including large cloud/enterprise partners) around scope, tradeoffs, and timelines.
* Act as Product Owner across one or two concurrent AI projects, maintaining visibility, momentum, and alignment.
* Collaborate with an AI Architect and engineering leads to align business outcomes with technical implementation, without needing to be a hands-on developer.
* Facilitate Sprint planning, reviews, and retrospectives with a focus on outcomes, learning, and velocity rather than ceremony.
* Anticipate risks and issues ahead of time rather than reacting late; surface them clearly and propose actionable options.
* Ensure that business outcomes, user value, and AI capabilities are consistently connected and understood by all parties.
* Maintain strong executive presence in meetings: concise updates, clear decisions, and structured communication.
* Support scale-up of AI delivery by helping define patterns, governance, and ways-of-working that can be reused across projects.
