You join as Senior Business Scientist within our Data & AI Transformation Services (DATS). You bridge business, consulting, AI & data expertise: you frame high-value use cases, turn business needs into AI opportunities, and drive adoption. You work alongside AI, Data and Software Engineers.
Clients' Projects
- Lead the day-to-day relationship with business and CDO/CIO sponsors, and understand their strategic and operational challenges.
- Frame high-value Data & AI use cases and translate business needs into AI opportunities, from AI ambition and roadmap to Proof of Value and MVP.
- Depending on the engagement, act as Data & AI Product Owner: own the product vision and backlog, prioritize with business sponsors, write and accept user stories, steer the squad's delivery with the Tech Lead from Proof of Value to MVP and production, and own the related delivery governance and planning.
- Align business teams, leadership and ExCo around the AI roadmap and the transformation priorities.
- Own the business value and adoption of the solutions built by the squad: operating model, usage, impact measurement, Responsible AI and governance. Challenge their feasibility and industrialization with the Tech Lead and the Tech Engineers; you do not build the models yourself, but you are technical enough to challenge and steer GenAI, LLM, agentic and ML solutions.
- Contribute to the Transformation Cockpit: maturity measurement, adoption KPIs and steering of AI value over time.
- Work within a multidisciplinary squad (Tech Lead, AI/Data/Software Engineers), apply Ekimetrics' DATS methods, templates and deliverables, and tailor them to each client.
- Coordinate the business side of the squad and monitor delivery and profitability with manager support.
