Description

Position Summary

R3 is seeking an AI Engineer to design, implement, secure, and drive adoption of enterprise AI solutions. This role will have a strong focus on Microsoft Copilot, Copilot Studio, Azure AI, and Anthropic Claude, combining hands-on AI engineering with cybersecurity, data protection, governance, and user enablement.

The ideal candidate understands that successful AI transformation requires more than deploying technology. This individual will help ensure AI solutions are secure, practical, adopted by users, and deliver measurable business value. The AI Engineer will work across technology, security, compliance, Professional Services, and business teams to turn emerging AI capabilities into scalable solutions for R3 and its customers.

Responsibilities:

AI Engineering & Solutions

  • Design, develop, and deploy enterprise AI solutions using Microsoft 365 Copilot, Copilot Studio, Azure AI, Azure OpenAI, and Anthropic Claude.
  • Build AI agents, assistants, automations, and Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) solutions grounded in enterprise data.
  • Integrate AI solutions with Microsoft 365, Teams, SharePoint, Power Platform, Azure, APIs, and other enterprise platforms.
  • Develop and optimize prompts, agent instructions, knowledge sources, workflows, and AI orchestration.
  • Evaluate emerging AI technologies and determine their practical application within R3 and customer environments.

AI Security, Data Protection & Governance

  • Understand and address the cybersecurity, privacy, and compliance risks introduced by generative AI.
  • Design solutions that protect confidential, sensitive, regulated, and customer data from inappropriate access, disclosure, or use.
  • Apply security and governance controls using technologies such as Microsoft Purview, Microsoft Defender, Entra ID, Data Loss Prevention (DLP), sensitivity labels, and Conditional Access.
  • Help establish AI governance standards covering approved platforms, acceptable use, data handling, identity, access, third-party AI services, and responsible AI.
  • Understand and apply relevant frameworks and requirements such as CMMC, NIST 800-171, NIST AI RMF, SOC 2, and ISO 27001 where appropriate.

User Adoption & Training

  • Drive adoption of Microsoft Copilot, Claude, and other approved AI technologies across business teams.
  • Develop and deliver role-based AI training, workshops, demonstrations, office hours, and hands-on enablement sessions.
  • Create reusable prompt libraries, use-case playbooks, quick-reference materials, and responsible AI guidance.
  • Help employees understand what information can and cannot be safely shared with AI platforms.
  • Identify high-value use cases by working directly with business teams to understand workflows, challenges, and opportunities for improvement.
  • Establish and support AI champions and power-user communities to accelerate adoption and share best practices.
  • Gather user feedback and usage insights to continuously improve AI solutions and training.

Business Value & Continuous Improvement

  • Establish baseline measurements and KPIs for significant AI initiatives before deployment.
  • Measure adoption, productivity, quality, security, and business outcomes following implementation.
  • Identify opportunities to improve existing AI solutions based on usage, user feedback, security requirements, and technological advancements.
  • Translate technical AI capabilities into clear business outcomes for customers, users, and executive leadership.

How Success Will Be Measured

Success in this role will be measured across four key areas:

  1. Build
  2. Deliver reliable, scalable AI solutions that solve meaningful business problems and can be operationalized across R3 and customer environments.
  3. Protect
  4. Ensure AI solutions maintain appropriate security, identity, privacy, compliance, and data-protection controls while reducing the risk of inappropriate AI usage or data exposure.
  5. Adopt
  6. Increase active usage and employee proficiency through effective training, AI champions, practical use cases, and ongoing enablement. Measures may include active users, repeat usage, training participation, user satisfaction, and departmental adoption.
  7. Prove
  8. Demonstrate measurable business value through outcomes such as hours saved, reduced manual effort, faster service delivery, improved response quality, increased employee productivity, improved customer experience, or new revenue opportunities.

The Right Candidate

The successful AI Engineer will be equally comfortable building an AI agent, evaluating its security implications, teaching employees how to use it, and demonstrating whether it is delivering measurable value.

The right individual will combine technical curiosity with a strong security mindset and a passion for helping people embrace new technology. They will play a key role in enabling R3 and its customers to adopt AI responsibly, securely, and in ways that produce meaningful business results.
