In this role, you will embed directly with business and technical teams - including Legal, FP&A, Accounting, Brand, Customer Support, and Engineering - to discover the highest-value opportunities for AI-powered automation and deliver production-grade solutions. You will own the full lifecycle from opportunity identification and scoping through system design, build, deployment, and adoption, operating as a self-directed contributor who thrives in ambiguity and can navigate complex organizational dynamics. This is a hands-on builder role that requires strong software engineering fundamentals, deep AI expertise, and a product-oriented mindset focused on adoption and measurable business impact, not demos. You will go beyond point solutions to reimagine how entire functions operate as AI-native, * Drive AI deployments from discovery and scoping through system design, build, and production rollout, owning the outcome end to end * Embed directly with business and technical teams to diagnose real problems, often before they are clearly articulated, and identify the highest-value opportunities for agentic automation * Prepare clear scopes of work and pragmatic project plans for both prototypes and full production deployments, making real-time trade-offs on scope, priority, and quality * Design, build, test, and deploy production-grade agentic AI applications and integrations, moving from prototype to live system in short cycles * Reimagine how entire functions operate as AI-native, agent-powered systems, going beyond individual task automation * Connect solutions to Roku's data platforms, internal systems, and enterprise APIs, working across complex and disparate data sources, pipelines, and metric layers * Lead onboarding, enablement, and change management for the teams you serve, iterating on real user feedback until solutions are trusted and actively used * Define and track success through production adoption, workflow impact, and measurable business value * Collaborate with embedded AI Ambassadors, mentor teammates, and flex across functions, domains, and initiatives as priorities evolve * Codify reusable patterns and field learnings back into Roku's broader AI platform strategy to strengthen shared capabilities and frameworks, Roku fosters an inclusive and collaborative environment where teams generally work in the office Monday through Thursday. Fridays are generally flexible for remote work, except for employees whose specific roles or assigned office location require five days' a week attendance.
