Industry Solution Leaders combine deep industry and engineering expertise with end-to-end ownership of customer solutions. They are expected to understand a customer's operations deeply enough to challenge assumptions, identify and quantify the highest-value opportunities, define the right technical solution, and lead cross-functional teams through design, deployment, validation, and scale. The role combines the responsibilities of a senior domain expert and solution leader. Industry Solution Directors work directly with customer engineering, operations, maintenance, and executive teams while leading C3 AI Forward Deployed Engineers, data scientists, product teams, and other technical resources to deliver measurable business outcomes. The ideal candidate brings significant hands-on experience in engineering, manufacturing, operations, reliability, or maintenance and has the technical judgment, customer leadership, and delivery ownership required to lead complex enterprise AI solutions from problem definition through production. The ISL, Heavy Industrial - Integrated Steel Optimization and Asset Performance should have hands-on experience working in an integrated steel mill, with direct exposure across BF, BOF/BOP, caster, HSM, and/or cold rolling/finishing operations, and ownership of throughput, yield, scrap, quality, energy, downtime, line balance, or bottleneck removal. RESPONSIBILITIES Own the overall solution strategy, technical direction, and delivery outcomes for assigned customer engagements, maintaining accountability from initial problem definition through production deployment and scale. Serve as the primary customer-facing solution leader and domain expert, developing a detailed understanding of customer operations, equipment, processes, constraints, and business objectives. Identify and quantify high-impact business opportunities across equipment reliability, maintenance, production performance, process optimization, throughput, yield, quality, energy efficiency, and operating economics. Translate complex engineering and operational challenges into tractable AI, machine learning, optimization, and software problems with clearly defined requirements, success criteria, and expected business value. Lead engagements through use case definition, requirements gathering, solution architecture, application configuration, validation, production deployment, user adoption, and scale-out. Apply deep engineering and industry expertise to challenge assumptions, evaluate technical approaches, interpret analytical results, and ensure solutions are consistent with engineering fundamentals and operational realities. Lead cross-functional teams of Forward Deployed Engineers, data scientists, product managers, engineers, and industry experts, establishing technical priorities and driving alignment around customer outcomes. Work directly with customer engineers, operators, reliability teams, maintenance organizations, and executives to validate requirements, solution performance, operational workflows, and business impact. Guide the interpretation and use of industrial data, including process signals, equipment attributes, operating states, maintenance history, production information, alarms, quality data, and other engineering information required to solve customer problems.
