- Evaluate solution options across process, configuration, integration, data, build, and vendor capabilities with consideration for user value, feasibility, risk, cost, scalability, and long-term sustainability.
- For AI-enabled and automated capabilities, translate opportunities into clear user, business, data, risk, control, testing, and human-oversight requirements in partnership with appropriate governance teams.
- Represent assigned product capabilities in leadership, governance, vendor, and implementation discussions; communicate recommendations, decisions, risks, dependencies, and progress to technical and nontechnical audiences.
