Lead data science enablement across business groups: training, coaching, and workshop follow-through that helps stakeholders interpret and act on ML models, forecasts, and optimization outputs - converting AI and analytics products into active, governed usage
Partner with senior data scientists: translate complex models, statistical outputs, and optimization recommendations (demand forecasting, logistics planning, supply chain optimization) into language executives and frontline users both understand
Engage leadership directly: act as a credible, leadership-facing advocate who frames AI and analytics products around business decisions and P&L impact, and secures executive sponsorship for sustained adoption
Build reusable assets: decision playbooks, model interpretation guides, prompt and skill libraries, templates, and accelerators that grow a self-sufficient community of model consumers
Coordinate delivery across the AI and analytics portfolio: partner with data scientists, architects, business stakeholders, and IT to track adoption, manage dependencies, facilitate follow-ups, and support project management activities across models, dashboards, data assets, and adoption initiatives
Support governance and safe scaling: monitor usage and adoption, ensure outputs are interpreted and applied correctly, and help steward the underlying data assets - upholding data quality, model governance, data security, and responsible-use practices as the consumer community grows
