  • Partner closely with stakeholders across Engineering, Product, Sales, and G&A to identify high-impact opportunities where AI can accelerate work and improve outcomes.
  • Establish and drive measurement and feedback loops (usage, reliability, cost, and cycle time) to quantify impact, inform prioritization, and guide iteration.
  • Create and maintain clear documentation, playbooks, and enablement materials, and proactively drive adoption of paved roads across the organization.
  • Mentor and support engineers on the team, raising the bar on technical design, execution, and use of AI-enabled tooling.
