Sr Engineering Program Manger (AI Strategy & Adoption), Business Operations, Engagement and Strategy joins the Business Operations, Employee Engagement, and Strategy team to lead complex cross-functional programs focused on agentic AI and MCP server delivery. The role involves managing the connective layer between disparate teams to transform scattered experiments into company-wide impact through discovery, standards alignment, and adoption. Key responsibilities include prioritizing and delivering MCP servers, defining GenAI adoption strategies with clear KPIs, scanning for best-in-class developments, and distilling complex programs into narratives for senior leadership. The position requires technical fluency in GenAI, LLM-based workflows, agentic systems, and the Model Context Protocol. Candidates must navigate high-ambiguity environments to coordinate requirements and manage interdependencies across engineering organizations while ensuring all solutions meet strict privacy and security standards within the enterprise generative AI transformation.

What you'll do

  • Prioritize and drive the delivery of MCP servers and agentic AI solutions across various engineering teams.
  • Define a common strategy for GenAI adoption and translate it into a roadmap with clear KPIs.
  • Scan and identify high-signal opportunities in emerging GenAI developments for company-wide investment.
  • Establish shared standards for GenAI tools to ensure safe and effective use by all employees.
  • Act as the connective tissue between different AI communities to align goals across various business units.
  • Create a centralized discovery and learning experience for GenAI with established feedback loops.
  • Distill complex, cross-organizational program data into clear narratives for senior leadership communication.

What we're looking for

  • 8+ years of experience leading large transformational programs or technical initiatives.
  • Proven track record of driving complex, cross-functional programs at enterprise scale.
  • Demonstrated experience with GenAI, LLM-based workflows, or agentic systems in an enterprise context.
  • BS or MS degree in Computer Science, Information Management, a technical field, or equivalent experience.
  • Hands-on familiarity with Model Context Protocol (MCP), agent frameworks, or GenAI developer tooling.
  • Experience with portfolio management and managing interdependencies across multiple engineering tracks.
  • Exceptional written and verbal communication skills to tailor technical concepts for various audiences.
  • Experience leading cross-organizational initiatives using diplomacy and coalition-building rather than direct authority.
