The organization is advancing responsible and sustainable use of artificial intelligence to improve operations, service delivery, workforce productivity, decision-making, and technology capabilities.

Position Summary

The Artificial Intelligence Implementation Specialist works under the direction of an IT Manager, Project Manager, Department Executive, or user agency personnel. The Specialist helps departments evaluate, plan, implement, govern, and mature artificial intelligence capabilities across business and operational functions. This advisory and implementation-focused role assesses readiness, identifies high-value use cases, establishes responsible-AI practices, delivers proofs of concept, supports adoption, and transfers knowledge to internal staff. Application development may be included as a use case but is not the primary purpose of the role.

Key Responsibilities

• Partner with department leadership, business owners, technical teams, and user agency personnel to translate operational needs into practical and responsible AI solutions.
• Conduct AI readiness assessments, opportunity assessments, business-process analyses, technology-environment reviews, and organizational capability evaluations.
• Identify, evaluate, prioritize, and document AI use cases based on feasibility, risk, operational impact, public value, implementation complexity, and expected business benefits.
• Develop AI strategies, implementation roadmaps, adoption plans, operating models, governance recommendations, and organizational change-management approaches.
• Establish responsible-AI and governance practices aligned with recognized frameworks, including the NIST AI Risk Management Framework.
• Recommend controls addressing data privacy, information security, accessibility, bias and fairness, transparency, accountability, human oversight, regulatory obligations, and validation of AI-generated work products.
• Recommend enterprise AI platforms, tools, integration patterns, workflow automation approaches, and supporting cloud or technology services.
• Design, oversee, and deliver AI proofs of concept, pilots, and production implementations.
• Define success criteria, performance measures, validation procedures, acceptance standards, and business-value metrics for AI initiatives.
• Assess and integrate AI capabilities with existing data sources, enterprise applications, identity and access management systems, collaboration platforms, and cloud environments.
• Establish prompt-engineering standards, reusable prompt libraries, design patterns, data-handling practices, output-review procedures, and quality-control requirements.
• Evaluate AI-generated and AI-assisted outputs for accuracy, security, privacy, bias, accessibility, maintainability, and fitness for purpose.
• Apply AI tools in a controlled and policy-compliant manner consistent with departmental standards, security requirements, privacy obligations, ethical practices, and accessibility standards.
• Advise on AI-assisted software development workflows when application development is an approved use case.
• Coordinate with application developers and technical teams to validate AI-generated code, documentation, test artifacts, and related work products.
• Facilitate workshops, discovery sessions, stakeholder meetings, executive briefings, demonstrations, training sessions, and feedback activities.
• Prepare clear technical documentation, executive reports, governance standards, implementation guides, operating procedures, templates, training materials, and knowledge-transfer resources.
• Define and measure AI adoption, operational performance, productivity improvements, business value, service-delivery outcomes, and return on investment.
• Recommend continuous-improvement actions based on performance results, stakeholder feedback, risk findings, technology changes, and organizational priorities.
• Provide hands-on mentoring, facilitation, documentation, and knowledge transfer to technical and non-technical staff.
• Build internal capability so staff can independently sustain, govern, operate, evaluate, and expand AI solutions.
• Establish and maintain cooperative working relationships with executives, managers, business users, project teams, technical personnel, and other stakeholders.
• Communicate effectively with both executive and technical audiences through oral presentations, written materials, demonstrations, and structured recommendations.

• Minimum of two years of experience partnering with executive leadership, business owners, project managers, cybersecurity staff, infrastructure teams, business analysts, and/or application developers on information technology initiatives.
• Minimum of one year of experience providing training, facilitation, mentoring, documentation, or knowledge transfer to technical and non-technical staff to build internal capability.
• Knowledge and experience with enterprise AI implementation, generative AI, large language models, and AI agents.
• Experience with enterprise AI services such as Microsoft Copilot, Azure OpenAI, ChatGPT, Claude, Google Gemini, or comparable platforms.
• Knowledge and experience conducting AI readiness assessments, business-process analyses, AI use-case identification and prioritization, implementation road mapping, AI adoption, and organizational change management.
• Knowledge and experience with AI governance and responsible-AI practices, including risk management aligned with the NIST AI Risk Management Framework.
