Most companies don't know what AI can do. This role is why they find out. It is the internal champion who rolls out tools across departments. Automated workflows get built. Employees get trained to actually use them. Business processes get audited for high-impact automation. ROI gets measured after implementation. The hardest part is not technical. It is organizational change management.
