About The Position

This is a part-time consulting role for 20hr/week, with a project duration of approximately 3-4 months. The AI Adoption Consultant will bridge the gap between cutting-edge artificial intelligence and the complex workflows of a modern biotechnology organization. The mission is to accelerate the integration of AI tools across the enterprise, moving beyond the "hype" to deliver tangible improvements in operational efficiency and scientific output. The consultant will partner with leaders in Research, Clinical Operations, Finance, IT, and People & Culture to identify high-impact opportunities, design implementation roadmaps, and lead a culture-shifting training program to ensure every employee is "AI-fluent."

• Direct experience in the Biotech or Pharmaceutical sector is highly preferred.
• A strong understanding of Large Language Models (LLMs), Generative AI tools, and data orchestration. You don't need to be a coder, but you must be able to speak the language of both data scientists and end-users.
• Exceptional ability to translate complex technical concepts into "business value" for non-technical stakeholders.
• Bachelor’s degree in a relevant field (CS, Data Science, Business, or Life Sciences).
