• GenAI expertise preferred: familiarity with generative AI concepts, prompt engineering, responsible AI practices, and integrating AI/ML capabilities into business processes.

• Experience supporting large-scale transformation initiatives, including PPS or similar operating models.

• Familiarity with architecture frameworks such as TOGAF, BIZBOK, ArchiMate, or similar.

• Demonstrated ability to translate business strategy into actionable technology and data solutions.
