The role requires a deep understanding of workflows and business needs across the fund operations vertical — including Fund Accounting, Entity Lifecycle Management, Financial Planning & Analysis (FP&A), Tax, and other Corporate Finance departments — with a mandate to identify and deliver high-impact AI solutions that drive meaningful operational improvement across these teams. Central to this role is serving as the primary liaison between finance end-users and the Global Technology Services (GTS) AI team — translating business processes, pain points, and strategic vision into clear, well-scoped AI solution requirements. This person is not expected to be a developer or coder but must possess a strong conceptual understanding of how AI systems work, what they are capable of, and — equally important — when AI is the right solution versus other approaches. The Manager will lead AI workstreams from initial use case identification through delivery, testing, and end-user adoption, working closely with GTS counterparts to ensure solutions are built correctly and deliver measurable value. Deep fluency in AI tools and techniques — including prompt engineering, AI skill development, agent workflows, and generative AI platforms — is essential, and the Manager will apply this expertise directly in service of the teams and processes they support. The Manager will also own change management for AI initiatives across the fund operations vertical, driving training, communication, and adoption programs that ensure new solutions are embraced and used effectively. The position reports to the Associate Vice President of Business Finance Systems within the Finance Process & Operations team, working closely with Fund Accounting, Global Technology Services, and cross-functional leadership as needed.

of AI tools into daily operations* Stay current with emerging AI capabilities, tools, and industry best practices, continuously identifying new opportunities to apply them within Carlyle’s finance ecosystemProduction Support & Continuous Optimization (~10%)* Provide ongoing production support for deployed AI solutions, triaging issues and coordinating with GTS for timely resolution* Gather
