Job summary

Moog Inc. in Buffalo, NY is seeking an AI Program Manager to own prioritization, governance, and delivery across the AI Enablement Center’s initiatives. You will translate strategy into an executable roadmap, sequence work by capacity, and report ROI to governance.

You will drive intake, prioritization, and sequencing across AI model types (M1/M2/M3) and maintain a rolling 2–3 year roadmap. This role requires onsite work in Buffalo and strong executive communication.

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in a related field.
• 8+ years of program or portfolio management experience, ideally within technology, digital transformation, or innovation functions.
• Demonstrated ability to drive prioritization discipline in a fast-moving, resource-constrained environment.
• Strong executive reporting and synthesis skills, with comfort presenting portfolio status to senior governance bodies.
• PMP, PgMP, or equivalent program management certification preferred.
• Comfortable operating within a strategic governance structure set by others, rather than setting strategy independently.
• Familiarity with AI/ML delivery patterns is a plus; execution discipline matters more than deep technical AI depth in this role.
• Must live local to the Buffalo, NY area, or be willing to relocate, to work onsite.

Responsibilities

• Translate steering committee-approved strategy, investment thresholds, and portfolio allocation into an executable AEC roadmap and operating cadence.
• Own intake, prioritization, and sequencing of AEC-supported initiatives across all three AI model types (M1 / M2 / M3).
• Run the AEC's portfolio governance rhythm: status reporting, risk/issue tracking, resource allocation, and stage-gate reviews.
• Own enterprise AI performance & ROI monitoring, consolidating results across operating groups for steering committee reporting.
• Maintain a rolling two-to-three-year roadmap view that informs, but does not replace, the steering committee's strategic planning process.
• Identify and escalating cross-group conflicts, duplicated initiatives, or resourcing constraints before they become blockers.
• Partner with Operating Group leads to confirm local use case prioritization aligns with enterprise portfolio guardrails.
• Maintain a lightweight, consistent intake and governance process that operating groups experience as an accelerant, not a bottleneck.
