• Collaborate with eGovernment Services colleagues, IST leadership, cybersecurity, privacy, records management, service management, vendors and departmental stakeholders to ensure solutions are secure, accessible, governed and supportable.
• Stay current with emerging AI and automation capabilities and assess their suitability for county use.
• Perform other work as required.

Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in information systems, computer science, business, public administration, communications, analytics or a related ?eld; minimum of five years working experience, developing and deploying web-based solutions to include significant professional experience in AI enablement, intelligent automation, work?ow automation, digital transformation, business systems analysis, low-code development or a similar technology-focused role; or an equivalent combination of education and experience.

• Ability to learn emerging capabilities quickly and evaluate whether they are appropriate for county use.

Career Development and Work Environment

• This position is a part of an approved Career Development Plan (CDP) and offers career progression opportunities and salary incentives, as funding permits, based on performance, qualifications, and experience.
• Enjoy a flexible hybrid work environment that balances in-office collaboration and remote productivity.
