Lead day to day three in a box decision making with the Business SME and the AI Engineering Lead, resolving scope, policy, user experience, risk, cost, and technical tradeoffs as the product is designed and built. 

Define baselines and track product outcomes such as adoption, cycle time reduction, user effort, decision quality, exception rates, rework, user satisfaction, operational risk, and unit cost, and use the evidence to guide investment and backlog choices. 

Coordinate end-to-end delivery across design, engineering, data, quality, security, risk, UAT, release, training, communications, and operational readiness, keeping dependencies visible and decisions timely, and represent squad demand. 

Plan and lead user validation, pilots, parallel runs, rollout, and change adoption, ensuring users understand how to interpret AI outputs, when to exercise judgment, and how to provide feedback or escalate exceptions. 

Use production telemetry, evaluation results, user feedback, incidents, and operational data to continuously improve the workflow, and contribute reusable product patterns and lessons learned to the broader AI Factory. 

Use measurable business outcomes, strategic alignment, customer impact, operational performance, and delivery capacity to inform portfolio prioritization and future product investment decisions

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
