Your Role
Own product vision, roadmap, and adoption strategy for AI capabilities across global customer interaction processes.
Deliver cost reduction by prioritizing and scaling (agentic) automation of service requests (from intake and triage to resolution and escalation).
Define the target operating model for enterprise AI capabilities (buy vs. build decisions, governance, platform strategy).
Design scalable agent orchestration patterns: classification, routing, multi-channel orchestration, fallback handling, and human-in-the-loop escalation.
Establish robust approaches for RAG, prompting frameworks, evaluation, and quality measurement (accuracy, containment, safety, latency, cost).
Partner closely with Engineering, Architecture, Security, Data and business stakeholders to move from pilots → production → scale.
Facilitate workshops and decision forums; communicate clearly to both technical and business teams as well as to senior decision-makers.
What you’ll build (example outcomes)
A repeatable service automation blueprint (intake → classify → route → resolve/escalate) that reduces manual effort and improves time-to-resolution.
An enterprise-ready agent orchestration layer spanning channels like chat, voice, portal and CRM—integrated into Salesforce/Genesys landscapes.
A scalable approach to enterprise knowledge + RAG (data sourcing, access control, guardrails, monitoring).
A practical evaluation and rollout playbook with KPIs and governance, enabling global adoption without sacrificing security or reliability.
Your Profile

Solid understanding of LLM capabilities, model selection considerations, and AI solution patterns.

Ability to monitor business impact of the solutions that you are responsible for in a data-driven methodology
