WHAT YOU'LL DO

Process Design & System Implementation (50%) Serve as a trusted technology partner across departments including Legal, HR, Finance, Development, and Communications by embedding directly within the department to understand how work gets done - conducting structured stakeholder interviews, mapping current-state workflows, and identifying bottlenecks, manual handoffs, and duplicative effort. Partner with departments to redesign processes and deliver solutions end-to-end: documenting, prototyping, and building production‑grade automations using business process automation platforms (e.g., Power Automate, Zapier), workflow tools, and low‑code/no‑code applications to replace manual work with reliable systems. In collaboration with the Digital Transformation team, define and track success metrics (e.g., time saved, error reduction, cycle time, adoption, user satisfaction), and communicate progress and strategy to stakeholders and executive leadership through clear, data‑driven presentations. AI Roadmap & Delivery (30%) Partner with leadership and business unit stakeholders to identify, prioritize, and scope high‑impact AI use cases, translating ambiguous business problems into well‑defined product requirements and actionable technical roadmaps. Lead end‑to‑end delivery of AI‑powered tools and workflows— including LLM‑based applications, retrieval systems, automation pipelines, and integrations with existing platforms—balancing speed of iteration with security, accuracy, and responsible AI principles. Establish frameworks for evaluating AI solutions (e.g., build vs. buy, vendor selection, model evaluation, cost/benefit analysis) and develop guardrails for safe, ethical, and effective use of AI across the organization. Emerging Technology Implementation (20%) Identify and evaluate emerging technologies to improve existing processes, deploying AI‑powered solutions where they meaningfully outperform traditional automation and recognizing when simpler, non‑AI approaches are the better fit. Partner with Security, Technology Operations, General Counsel, and Operations leadership to shape Earthjustice’s responsible emerging technology practices, including vendor standards, intake and review processes, evaluation methods, and staff guidance informed by frameworks such as the NIST AI Risk Management Framework. Stay current on emerging technologies, develop structured benchmarking evaluations and monitoring, and in partnership with the Digital Transformation team, socialize findings with the organization.
