Background:

• Qualcomm business teams rely on enterprise systems to execute critical processes across functions such as finance, sales, operations, HR, supply chain, engineering support and corporate services.

• The successful candidate will help bridge business intent, system capability, process adoption and technical execution.

Minimum Qualifications:

• 5+ years of IT-relevant work experience with a Bachelor's degree.
OR
7+ years of IT-relevant work experience without a Bachelor’s degree.

*Completed advanced degrees in a relevant field may be substituted for up to two years (Master’s = one year, Doctorate = two years) of work experience.

• Create and review functional and system specifications that translate business needs into actionable requirements for application owners and delivery teams.

• Identify opportunities to apply AI, generative AI, intelligent agents, workflow automation and enterprise data capabilities to improve business efficiency and decision-making.
• Partner with business stakeholders to define practical AI use cases, expected outcomes, adoption considerations and measurable value.
• Promote responsible and effective use of Qualcomm-approved AI capabilities within enterprise business processes.
• Help business teams understand where AI can augment existing enterprise applications and where AI-specific solutions may deliver new efficiency or insight.
• Represent business problems and AI opportunities to technical teams in a clear, structured and prioritised way.

Business engagement and regional partnership

• Build trusted relationships with EMEA business leaders, functional teams and key users to understand priorities, pain points and operating models.
• Act as a regional IT advisor for enterprise business systems and AI-enabled process improvement opportunities.
• Facilitate workshops, discovery sessions and process reviews with business and technical stakeholders.
• Ensure EMEA business requirements are represented effectively to global IT delivery teams.
• Support change adoption by helping business teams understand, use and realise value from enterprise systems and new capabilities.

Preferred qualifications and experience

• 2+ years of experience leading informal teams or cross-functional initiatives.
• Experience with enterprise platforms such as Oracle, Salesforce, ServiceNow, Workday, Databricks, enterprise data platforms or similar business systems.

• Understanding of generative AI, enterprise copilots, intelligent agents, workflow automation or AI-enabled productivity tools.
