Job Summary

We are looking for an Engineering Manager, D&T, Applied AI to lead the design, build, and scale-out of AI-powered digital products and platforms across the enterprise.

• Translate business priorities into an actionable AI engineering roadmap with clear technical milestones, success metrics, and delivery plans.
