ob Description:
We are seeking a Knowledge & AI Strategy Lead to design and drive the framework, governance, and adoption of our knowledge backbone across CX, Product, Engineering, and Marketing. This role is central to our AI vision: ensuring that all knowledge is curated, structured, and optimized as a high-quality input for AI agents, automation workflows, and intelligent customer experiences.

As both a strategist and change agent, the Knowledge & AI Strategy Lead will embed KM as a discipline, build cross-functional alignment, and transform knowledge into an AI-ready asset that reduces cost-to-serve, accelerates onboarding, and scales customer success. This leader will oversee both direct reports (e.g., KM Authors) and matrixed contributors across the business to make knowledge a shared responsibility and the fuel for DTN's next-generation AI capabilities.

Primary Goals

• Transform knowledge into AI-ready assets that fuel automation, intelligent search, and AI agents across the customer lifecycle.
• Define and lead KM strategy by creating governance standards, taxonomies, and adoption frameworks designed for both human use and AI consumption.
• Embed KM as a cross-functional discipline across CX, Product, Engineering, and Marketing, with cascaded ownership and accountability.
• Drive cultural change by making knowledge capture, curation, and AI-readiness part of daily workflows.
• Measure impact through AI-linked KPIs (e.g., ticket deflection %, AI agent resolution %, onboarding cycle time, search success rates).

Key Responsibilities
Strategy & Governance

• Develop and maintain the KM strategy and governance playbook with an explicit focus on AI-readiness.
• Define taxonomies, metadata standards, and content lifecycle processes that support both human usability and AI agent consumption.
• Ensure alignment of knowledge assets with DTN's positioning, messaging, and go-to-market strategy.

AI & Automation Enablement

• Curate and structure knowledge to serve as a high-quality training and inference input for AI agents, chatbots, and automation workflows.
• Partner with AI/ML teams to ensure knowledge sources are optimized for model training and retrieval quality.
• Identify new opportunities for AI-driven customer and employee experiences powered by knowledge assets.

Cross-Functional Collaboration

• Partner with CX, Product, Engineering, and Marketing leaders to integrate KM into daily processes.
• Build a matrixed KM community (SMEs, content owners, product experts) to sustain knowledge flow and ensure quality.
• Drive alignment across functions so that ownership and accountability cascade into team-level practices.

Team Leadership

• Directly manage KM Authors and other knowledge contributors responsible for creating and curating customer-facing content.
• Coach and influence matrixed contributors across functional areas to ensure consistency and adoption.
• Build a culture of accountability where knowledge contribution is recognized as core work, not extra work.

Change Leadership

• Champion knowledge as a strategic asset and AI enabler across DTN.
• Lead cultural adoption of KM practices through storytelling, coaching, and visible executive engagement.
• Position KM as a foundation for scalability, automation, and customer trust.

Measurement & Improvement

• Define and track AI-linked KM KPIs (e.g., deflection %, AI resolution %, search success rates, time-to-value in onboarding).
• Report regularly on adoption and impact to executive stakeholders.
• Continuously improve frameworks, standards, and practices based on results and feedback.

Qualifications

• 7+ years of experience in Knowledge Management, Content Strategy, or related roles in SaaS or enterprise environments.
• Demonstrated success designing KM frameworks, taxonomies, and governance models.
• Experience curating knowledge for AI and automation use cases (e.g., conversational AI, retrieval-augmented generation, intelligent search).
• Strong leadership skills, with experience managing both direct reports and matrixed contributors.
• Proven ability to drive cross-functional collaboration and influence at senior levels.
• Change management expertise, with a track record of embedding KM into daily processes.
• Analytical mindset with experience defining and reporting on KPIs that link to business outcomes.
• Background in SaaS, customer experience, or product enablement strongly preferred.
