  • Based on current and target designs, key figures, bottlenecks, sources of errors, data availability, and maturity assessments, you develop well-founded decision-making bases for management and specialist departments — including prioritization of specific AI use cases.
  • Together with Data & AI and Würth IT, you translate technical potentials into robust AI use cases, target processes, and technical solution architectures, and shape effective governance for their implementation.
  • You actively develop our process culture further: with confident stakeholder management, clear communication, and tailored enablement and training formats.
  • You bring your experience in establishing and developing best practices, methods, and structures, coaching colleagues, and strengthening the network in the process, automation, and AI environment.
