- Design, build, and ship bespoke AI-powered tools alongside the Manager, AI Transformation, working directly in code and AI-native development environments (e.g., Claude Code and Cowork) on the most important builds; set the technical bar for what the team produces.
- Co-own CHAI's AI tool portfolio alongside the Innovation team, overseeing the evaluation, selection, procurement, and ongoing governance of AI platforms and tools used across the organization; establish practical AI governance frameworks that protect CHAI without slowing it down.
