About The Position

Cumberland Heights is seeking an AI Enablement Specialist to bridge the gap between AI possibilities and practical application within their organization. This new role is central to executing the company's AI roadmap, working with a strategic CSO, an internal development team, and an AI strategy consultant. The specialist will translate organizational needs into scoped projects, coordinate resources, and ensure AI pilots move from concept to production. A key aspect of this role is fostering trust and adoption of AI tools among staff by building cross-functional relationships and project discipline.

Requirements

• Bachelors degree in information technology, Computer Science, Information Systems, or a related field required.
• 3+ years of experience in a technology, operations, or project management role with direct exposure to AI or automation tools.
• Demonstrated ability to manage cross-functional projects from scoping through delivery.
• Strong communication skills — comfortable translating technical concepts for non-technical audiences and organizational needs for technical teams.
• Familiarity with enterprise AI tools (ChatGPT, Claude, or comparable platforms) and practical experience applying them in a business context.
• Working knowledge of data privacy principles and compliance considerations relevant to AI deployment.

Nice To Haves

• Experience in healthcare, behavioral health, or other regulated environments (HIPAA experience a strong plus).
• Familiarity with prompt engineering, LLM evaluation, or AI governance frameworks.
• Experience designing or delivering technology training for non-technical staff.
• Relevant certifications or coursework in AI, project management (PMP, CAPM), or healthcare IT.

Responsibilities

• Conduct structured discovery with clinical, operational, and administrative departments to identify high-value AI and automation opportunities.
• Build and maintain a prioritized use case pipeline using a consistent evaluation framework (impact, feasibility, compliance, and cost).
• Lead pilots from scoping through production deployment, coordinating between internal developers, the AI strategy consultant, and department stakeholders.
• Document pilot outcomes, lessons learned, and scalability assessments.
• Serve as the operational owner of Cumberland Heights’ AI roadmap, tracking progress against approved initiatives and flagging risks or delays.
• Partner with the CSO to translate organizational strategy into scoped, sequenced projects.
• Coordinate vendor evaluations and build-versus-buy analyses, presenting findings in plain language for executive decision-making.
• Monitor the healthcare AI vendor market and bring forward relevant opportunities on a defined cadence.
• Design and deliver AI literacy training and hands-on workshops for staff across departments and roles.
• Create role-specific guidance documents and job aids that make AI tools accessible to non-technical staff.
• Serve as a primary internal resource for questions about approved AI tools, including the organization’s ChatGPT Enterprise environment.
• Identify and develop internal AI champions within departments to sustain adoption between formal training cycles.
• Ensure all AI initiatives are implemented in accordance with the organization’s AI Acceptable Use Policy and HIPAA requirements.
• Maintain documentation of active AI tools, integrations, data access patterns, and approval status.
• Participate in governance reviews and flag emerging compliance considerations as new tools or capabilities are introduced.
• Uphold the organization’s explicit boundary: AI supports and removes friction from administrative work; it does not replace or augment clinical judgment.
• Maintain a project management discipline across all active AI initiatives, including clear owners, timelines, and status reporting.
• Serve as the primary liaison between IT, the development team, the AI strategy consultant, and department leads.
• Communicate progress, risks, and decisions in formats appropriate to the audience — from IT technical staff to executive leadership.
• Provide regular status reporting to the CSO on roadmap progress, active pilots, and emerging risks, and participate in executive-level reviews as requested.
• Build and maintain trusted relationships across the organization as the face of AI enablement.
