• Collaborate with functional and business teams to gather requirements, define logic, and modularize business processes for AI-assisted code generation
• Develop intelligent frontend tools using Python, VBA, and Excel to streamline and automate business workflows
• Build, test, and deploy predictive models using machine learning and statistical techniques (forecasting, regression, simulation, etc.)
• Define and maintain coding standards, Git-based repositories, and CI/CD pipelines for AI and automation development
• Monitor and troubleshoot solution performance across SAP and non-SAP environments; ensure high availability and scalability
• Drive innovation by applying AI and cloud services to modernize business processes such as Order-to-Cash (OTC) and Procure-to-Pay (P2P)
• Oversee development of reusable code modules and AI frameworks; mentor junior Python developers
