The role requires hands-on proficiency with Claude Code/Cowork and Microsoft 365 Copilot Cowork, plus the ability to train non-technical teams and operate across office and field environments.

Qualifications

• 7+ years across engineering/construction technology, software/data, or technical implementation with hands-on LLM experience in a business setting.
• Working knowledge of the E&C project lifecycle and the systems that support it.
• Ability to build and deploy solutions (Python, TypeScript, or low-code; document/RAG pipelines) and to train non-technical project teams to use them.
• Hands-on fluency with agentic AI tools — building and automating with Claude Code, and enabling users with Claude Cowork and Microsoft 365 Copilot Cowork.
• Credible and comfortable with project teams in the office and in the field.

Responsibilities

• Train and enable project teams with hands‑on sessions and job‑specific guidance.
• Drive adoption on live projects: run pilots, sit with teams, remove friction, and grow self‑service use.
• Deploy, configure, and support AI tools and integrate with the E&C tech stack.
• Collaborate with peers to reuse solutions, templates, and patterns.
