AI Experiences and Responsible Innovation:
- Develop and execute an AI product strategy that improves outcomes for HR Admins, managers, and employees while maintaining trust, transparency, and usability.
- Establish standards for evaluating AI quality (accuracy, usefulness, bias/fairness considerations, and customer trust signals), and partner with Legal/Security on responsible AI practices.
Business Outcomes:
- Drive measurable business outcomes (adoption, retention, expansion/attach rates, and time-to-value) for employee journey capabilities.
- Partner with Marketing and Sales to refine positioning, packaging, and enablement that clearly communicates value across the employee lifecycle.
Data-Driven Decision Making:
- Define and track success metrics such as activation/time-to-value, workflow completion rates, feature adoption, retention/expansion, NPS/CSAT, and support ticket drivers.
- Use qualitative and quantitative insights to identify friction points across lifecycle moments and prioritize improvements.
Stakeholder Management:
- Collaborate with executive leadership, sales, marketing, customer experience, finance and legal/privacy teams to align product strategy with overall business objectives.

Form CC-305

OMB Control Number 1250-0005

Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
