- Integrate foundational AI concepts such as large language models (LLMs), embeddings, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), and agent-based automation to structure queries, document workflows, and prototype automated solutions
4. Team Leadership & Development:
- Serve as the manager for the India FP&A team.
- Recruit, onboard, and develop analysts as the team scales.
- Set clear goals, establish processes, and create a culture of accuracy, accountability, and continuous improvement.
