- Collaborate closely with IT, security engineering, and AI systems teams to stay aligned on tooling and roadmap evolution
- Develop scalable operating models for AI upskilling and workforce transformation
- Help shape the long-term future of AI adoption and organizational capability at Ridgeline

Over time, success in this role means:
- Employees across the company measurably improve AI fluency and useful adoption
- Functional leaders actively advance AI transformation initiatives within their teams
- Ridgeline develops scalable systems for ongoing workforce upskilling
- AI learning evolves from ad hoc experimentation into an integrated organizational capability
