## About the Role

 * Experience translating business problems into delivered software, ideally in insurance or another regulated environment.

## Description

The AI Factory is a central delivery unit at Allianz Technology that builds and deploys AI-powered solutions across the Allianz Group. It runs four pillars, Personal Productivity, AI-Native Ways of Working, Application Rebuild Modernization, and AI Use Case Delivery, on top of a shared AI platform ecosystem that provides the runtime, governance, observability, and reusable building blocks every solution runs on.
The AI engagement team provides inside the AI ecosystem landscape the platform-related advisory for agentic and AI-native solutions across Allianz Operating Entities. While platform teams provide all AI components and building blocks, the AI platform engagement works close with the OE and the use case delivery teams in order to steer and consult for the onboarding to the AI platform.
The AI Engagement Manager is the AI platform interface between the AI Factory Ecosystem team and the Operating Entities (OEs). Where the Forward Deployed Engineer is the technical core of the squad, the Platform Engagement Manager shapes the onboarding from functional, architectural and systemic perspective and steers it until production: scoping the use platform, shaping and executing with the platform teams, steering provisioning, and owning the OE relationship beyond go-live. It works on the Allianz Technology side while staying close to the OE, and involves the Head of IT or the respective global vertical from day one.

What you do

 * Form a squad with the platform teams and the use case delivery teams per OE engagement, together with the local IT or global vertical people.
 * Shape and execute OE demand in terms of platform decisions: make AI Factory platform capability visible early, match reusable building blocks (MVS) against the OE's actual pain points, and turn this into a funded platform engagement before the OE reaches outside.
 * Steer multiple engagements in parallel across the full lifecycle, transferring patterns, framings, and lessons between them so the next engagement starts smarter than the last.
 * Cut scope where it does not earn its place, validate assumptions fast, and correct course as the work unfolds.
 * Own the build-to-deploy handover to the global service or local IT team, with the platform team aside during delivery so the handover is real.
 * Own the OE relationship after go-live for platform related aspects and prepare structured communications and decision papers for senior stakeholders up to CTO and Board level.
