• Develop, implement, and manage an AI competency framework, keeping content and progression aligned with the organizational Job Architecture framework.
• Lead, develop, and collaborate with a team of content authors, facilitators, and coordinators; set content standards, learning‑design quality, and delivery consistency across the enterprise.
• Oversee training delivery across in‑person, virtual, and on‑demand formats - via our Learning Management System (LMS), custom developed AI‑driven solutions, and vetted third‑party providers.
• Manage third‑party AI training and content providers, including vetting, procurement, and ongoing alignment with Learning & Development priorities and enterprise requirements.
• Own configuration and maintenance of AI courses in the Learning Management System, ensuring accurate completion records and competency‑data integrity as the official reporting source.
• Deliver AI training status reporting, competency metrics, and success criteria.
• Ensure all training content and delivery align with Bechtel’s governance, data‑privacy, ethics, and intellectual‑property protection requirements.
• Develop and execute change communications in partnership with the communications team to build a sustainable AI training culture of continuous learning.
• Manage the program budget in coordination with the AI Center of Excellence and the owning organizations of function‑and‑discipline‑specific courses.

• Bachelor’s degree (or equivalent) and 1015 years of relevant experience in learning & development, training, enablement, or a related field.
• Experience building and scaling enterprise AI or digital upskilling programs across a large, global workforce.
