  • API Integration: Implement APIs effectively, understanding their outputs, and translating them into actionable insights for the department.
  • AI Tool Research: Go beyond simply identifying AI tools; customize and deploy them for maximum value within the organization.
  • Collaboration & Problem Solving: Partner with cross-functional teams to understand challenges and design AI-driven solutions that meet strategic goals.
  • Data Governance: Build, audit, and integrate data structures in various tools to surface high-level signal.

What you’ll need:

  • Decision-making. You’ll discern pertinent information and analyze how different factors can affect the success of our business’s operations.

You will need to be good at structuring your work day and tasks to make sure you accomplish all those things whilst maintaining a work-life balance.
  • With Research skills you’ll be able to gather, review and analyze information about relative stakeholders for our business and find the best solutions.
