Key Responsibilities

    • Persona‑led dashboards and early AI‑driven recommendations

Operationalisation & Architecture Adoption

  • Work closely with Data and Solution Architects to operationalise models and insights into the PULSE platform.
  • Ensure analytics are production‑ready, monitored, and reusable across additional use cases.
  • Contribute to architecture adoption by aligning models to common data structures and patterns.

Trust, Quality & Responsible Use

  • Embed validation, monitoring, and data‑quality checks to ensure early insights are trusted.
  • Apply ethical and responsible AI principles, particularly when working with workforce and behavioural data.
  • Support light‑weight governance and documentation without slowing delivery.

Collaboration & Delivery

  • Partner with product owners, data engineers, and business stakeholders to rapidly iterate from hypothesis to live insight.
  • Support pilots, demos, and early roll‑outs that clearly showcase PULSE’s value and novelty.
