- Proven Enablement Success: Experience building 'Center of Excellence' style frameworks that successfully ramped up external developer ecosystems.
- Demonstrated fluency in creating and editing high-fidelity video tutorials, utilizing video as a critical medium to elevate the technical conversation and visually demonstrate the depth of the C3 AI Platform
- Experience specifically with AI/ML platforms or complex data integration tools.

Responsibilities
- Strategic Leadership: Define the vision for C3 AI’s technical information architecture. Transition the organization from reactive content creation to a proactive, developer-centric enablement framework.
