Job Summary:

The Innovation Enterprise Development Manager reports directly to the Chief Innovation Officer and leads the cross-GBU Development solutions that need enterprise-level development and investment. Each solution is run like a product with one accountable owner, staged funding and a clear path to deployment on projects. Success is measured by capability transferred into the business, not by a P&L.

Major Responsibilities:

• Lead the portfolio of cross-GBU Develop solutions (previous e.g., digital twins, reality capture, autonomous earthworks), running each as a product with one accountable solution owner.
• Work closely with the five GBU Managers of Innovation, Project Managers of Innovation, GBU Development, and GBU Solution Deployment teams, and the EPC functions.
• Develop and maintain solution roadmaps tied to the project backlog and the needs of the EPC functions.
• Establish staged, metered funding with light approvals and stage gates judged on the problem and its potential, not early return on investment.
• Build development and implementation teams so solutions are built with the people who will use them.
• Keep solutions led by the business, with project and functional leaders setting requirements and technical experts in support.
• Scout technologies, partners, suppliers, and startups, and lead co-development agreements with Procurement and Legal.
• Plan and run tests of proof of concept solutions on backlog projects, prioritizing projects that are starting under productivity pressure or with customers asking for innovation.
• Provide input to the enterprise data strategy and execution standards so solution outputs fit Bechtel's work processes.
• Protect Bechtel's intellectual property in partner agreements and solution outputs, working with Legal.
• Engage IT and Cybersecurity early so solutions clear enterprise reviews without losing pace.
• Transition prototype solutions from active development to deployment support, working with Enterprise Solution Deployment to provide documentation, training, and support models and remain engaged during rollout.
• Report solution development progress, stage-gate decisions, and capability transferred to the Chief Innovation Officer.
• Travel to GBU offices, project sites, and partner facilities to direct pilots and evaluate results.
