• Support contracting for technology and AI-driven services engagements.
• Drive projects and stakeholder alignment across Sales, Delivery, Finance, Security, and Privacy, managing timelines, dependencies, and approvals to remove signature blockers.
• Design and improve review processes through triage criteria, escalation paths, trackers and reporting in JIRA and Confluence, and audit-ready documentation to scale throughput and consistency.
