About the Role
This is a leadership role for someone ready to develop both people and AI-native analytics capability. You’ll coordinate a team of analysts, guide them through technical and AI transformation challenges, and maintain your own technical involvement — all while growing your management skills in a collaborative, supportive environment.
Responsibilities
- Lead AI Transformation

- Make judgement calls on on where AI adds value and where human expertise must lead, building this critical thinking capability across your team
- Contribute to shaping our Agentic Development Framework, bringing practical experience from your domain to inform what works at scale
- Team Development & Collaboration
- Coordinate analytics projects and support individual growth — helping each team member build both technical depth and AI-native capability
- Collaborate on setting goals, providing feedback, and identifying development opportunities that align with the evolving capability requirements
- Create an environment where team members feel supported to experiment with AI, learn from what doesn’t work, and share what does
- Connect team members across different time zones, working styles, and experience levels
- Technical Coordination & Strategy
- Coordinate the development of analytics solutions across product initiatives, ensuring quality and consistency in technical approaches
- Stay connected to technical work while developing strategic thinking about team capabilities and the AI maturity of your assets
- Support the adoption of new tools, methods, and agentic practices — helping your team move beyond basic AI usage toward workflow transformation
- Contribute to technical decisions with input from your team and leadership
- Cross-Functional Partnership
- Collaborate with Product, Engineering, and other teams to understand needs and priorities
- Translate between technical work and business requirements — increasingly framing analytics capability in terms of AI-native delivery and measurable impact
- Work with other Analytics Leads to share approaches, coordinate AI transformation efforts, and avoid duplicating work across domains
