About The Position

Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) is seeking an Artificial Intelligence Integration Specialist to advance efforts in implementing new AI Tools within the Work Planning and Control Program. This role involves developing procedures for cross-organizational alignment in planning, ensuring proper scoping, ES&H requirements flow-down, and worker understanding of tasks, hazards, and controls. The specialist will ensure procedures, processes, software tools, and training are in place for efficient and compliant work execution. This position is within the Work Planning and Control (WP&C) Functional Area Office team in the Environment, Safety & Health (ES&H) Directorate. The position requires full-time on-site presence. Responsibilities include developing work control-related requirements, processes, and procedures into institutional work processes, prioritizing them based on institutional impact, and applying project management principles for implementation. The role also involves contributing to the development of processes, procedures, and training for integrating WP&C requirements for stakeholder organizations, partnering with stakeholders in advisory and working group committees to resolve barriers with a focus on AI-driven enhancements, and managing periodic updates of user guides and supplemental procedures. Training and mentoring staff on work control requirements and new technologies is also a key aspect. Collaboration with the WP&C Office Team to modify institutional requirements, processes, and governance documents incorporating AI-enabled capabilities is expected. Additional responsibilities at the TSS.3 level include leading the development of requirements for AI Tools to optimize resources, operational priorities, and stakeholder equity, driving the development of metrics for AI tool success, and developing strategies to optimize WP&C resources for emergent customer needs.
