- Develop and manage the roadmap for future AI-driven network initiatives, ensuring alignment with organizational strategic goals and technological evolution.
- Oversee the overall execution of the NetEng team, providing leadership and direction for ongoing and future projects.
- Ensure adherence to industry standards and best practices in network migration, program management, and the ethical integration of AI technologies.
At a minimum we'd like you to have:
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Operation Management or related field, or equivalent practical experience.
- 10 years of experience in technical program management, with a focus on hardware, network, or large-scale migration projects.
