Key Responsibilities 1) AI/ML Product & Technical Leadership Own technical direction for AI capabilities that prioritize the right customer, content, journey/channels, and insights-and enhance capability maturity over time. Lead development of predictive and optimization components that translate HCP-level signals into engagement recommendations and insights.

Drive "explainable AI" packaging so recommendations include interpretable drivers/insights that support pre-call planning and confidence. 2) Data & Feature Engineering for the HCP 360 Foundation Oversee engineering patterns for the "360 HCP dataset / data cube" that underpins the AI engine -ensuring reliability, lineage, and fit-for-purpose feature sets.

Drive reduction of "hotfix-as-BAU" by improving design patterns, backlog discipline, and root-cause remediation. 4) Governance, Risk, and Responsible AI Ensure AI enhancements follow required governance controls and risk review processes; coordinate artifacts and timelines so launches are not blocked by minimum assessment windows.

Embed compliance needs into system behavior (e.g., suppression/opt-out handling discussions and related operational considerations). 5) Stakeholder Partnership & Delivery Leadership Serve as the technical counterpart to product/strategy stakeholders-translating business needs into prioritized, feasible engineering work (e.g., business request intake and delivery).

Lead cross-functional working sessions to define hypotheses, pressure-test insights, finalize language, conduct system integration testing, and enable field readiness for launch. 6) Team Leadership & Talent Development Coach and develop engineers/data scientists; set technical standards; create a culture of operational excellence, high-quality documentation, and continuous improvement.
