Staff Workforce AI Engineer

Description

• Design deployment strategies that span multiple tools and set engineering standards for the Digital Workforce tool portfolio; manage moderate-complexity projects and act autonomously on most technical decisions.
• Architect data pipelines and cross-system integrations spanning digital employee experience platforms, IT service management, and endpoint tooling; own integration strategy as the lane's recognized subject matter expert.
• Architect Microsoft Copilot and Microsoft 365 enablement at enterprise scale, including governance and access-control design, drawing on expert-level administration knowledge of the AI assistant and Microsoft 365 ecosystem.
• Improve and scale the team's technical evaluation standards and reference library for AI tools, taking on the most complex evaluation problems and weighing competing technical factors with full autonomy.
• Design technical evaluation frameworks for AI use cases entering the Digital Workforce pipeline; mentor Workforce Engineers through complex architecture and readiness decisions.
• Lead threat modeling for the Digital Workforce tool portfolio and partner with Information Security, Risk, and Vendor Management to ensure every deployment meets First Tech's security and compliance requirements.
• Coordinate the technical activities of other Workforce Engineers on cross-tool initiatives, providing architectural guidance without formal people-management authority.
• Partner with the Workforce Experience and Workforce Enablement lanes at key evaluation and launch checkpoints, translating complex technical tradeoffs into terms that inform employee-need validation and launch readiness.
• Determines methods and procedures on new assignments; may coordinate the activities of other team members. Works highly independently, and coaches and delegates to others.
• Influences engineering practice and standards within the lane and, at times, across the Digital Workforce function; decisions carry short- to medium-term impact on the direction of the tool portfolio.

• Bachelor's degree in a related field, or an equivalent combination of education and experience.
• 6-8 years of relevant experience, with deep expertise in at least two Digital Workforce-relevant domains (digital employee experience, Microsoft 365, automation, or security).
• Deep, hands-on expertise in at least two of the following: digital employee experience platform architecture, the Microsoft 365 and Copilot ecosystem, automation and scripting, or security and compliance integration.
• Demonstrated ability to design cross-system architecture and set technical standards adopted by other engineers, without formal people-management authority.
• Advanced experience with enterprise digital employee experience platforms (for example, Nexthink), including telemetry pipeline design and integration with IT service management and endpoint toolchains.
• Expert-level Microsoft 365 and Copilot administration knowledge, including enterprise governance and access-control design.
• Strong track record partnering with Information Security, Vendor Management, and cross-functional stakeholders on complex, ambiguous technical evaluations.
• Effective mentor to less-senior engineers on architecture and evaluation decisions; comfortable operating as an informal technical lead.
