• Deep expertise in SAP Business AI Platform — AI Core, Joule, Joule Studio, Document AI — at both strategic and technical depth.
• Proficiency in agentic architecture — A2A, MCP, LLM/GenAI patterns — applied to enterprise use cases and AI-driven transformation.

• Translate business goals into prioritised AI use cases and lead PoC builds that prove viability and value.
• Coordinate SAP Business AI Platform activation — AI Core, Joule, Joule Studio, Document AI — and deliver customer enablement.
• Author Adoption Plans, track consumed ACV, and course-correct deviations.
• Establish AI Centre of Excellence structures and governance for agent monitoring and responsible AI.
