Job Summary:
We are seeking a Deputy AI Program Manager to help lead the corporate artificial intelligence program within our Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPC) Transformation organization. The role carries senior accountability for the program's portfolio, from use case intake through production service and enterprise-wide adoption, and for the governance, funding, and partner arrangements that hold it together. Success is measured less by any single deliverable than by the steady, predictable operation of a portfolio that spans pilots, production services, and sustained change across the business.
This is a working leadership role rather than an administrative one. In a given week it may involve shaping the business case for a new use case, arbitrating priorities between competing projects, reviewing a solution design with an engineering team, briefing an executive sponsor on benefits realization, and coaching a delivery lead through a difficult stakeholder conversation. The successful candidate moves comfortably between that strategic and hands-on register, and is credible with technical practitioners and senior business leadership alike. Experience in the EPC industry is preferred.
