You will build the AI product strategy and roadmap for employee experiences across Microsoft AI and frontier partners (e.g., OpenAI, Anthropic, Perplexity), ensuring solutions consistently meet enterprise governance standards, align to firm‑wide technology policy, embed risk and privacy controls, and deliver measurable employee impact.

You will drive cross platform AI experience quality, product requirements, and coherence across Copilot, chat experiences, agents, and automation capabilities, ensuring consistency, governance by design, and value realization.

You will manage a team and partner closely with Digital Workplace Engineering, Legal and Compliance, Risk, HR, and Information Security to deliver enabled experiences that are intuitive, governed, reusable, and embedded into daily workflows.

• Embed Legal and Compliance, Information Security, Procurement, and HR controls directly into AI product design to ensure responsible AI and governance by design.

• Serve as the primary strategic interface with Microsoft and frontier AI partners, shaping product direction through clear enterprise requirements and adoption signals.

• Drive measurement frameworks that quantify employee impact, reduce friction, and ensure investment is directed toward high frequency, high value scenarios.

• Partner with Digital Workplace stakeholders to ensure AI products are supported through strong onboarding, change management, user education, and operational processes.

• Expertise in product management disciplines including roadmap ownership, backlog prioritization, lifecycle management, and cross functional stakeholder alignment.

• Demonstrated ability to translate enterprise strategy into actionable, governed product scenarios that scale across diverse business functions.

• Strong knowledge of governance, compliance, security, and privacy controls and how to embed them into product design (governance by design mindset).

• Experience partnering with Legal, Risk, HR, Architecture, and Security teams to launch compliant technology products.

• Familiarity with Digital Workplace and SaaS governance principles, including platform onboarding, suitability assessment, and shadow IT mitigation.

• Excellent communication and executive storytelling skills; ability to clearly articulate complex AI capabilities and influence senior stakeholders.

• Strong vendor and partner management experience, including defining product requirements and influencing partner roadmaps.

• Ability to lead teams, mentor talent, drive operational excellence, and create repeatable processes for scaling AI products.
