Vision Setting & Agentic Strategy AI Opportunity Mapping: Lead workshops to deconstruct legacy procurement workflows and identify where Coupa Agents (native or custom) can drive the highest ROI. Agentic Deployment Strategy: Help clients determine the "where" and "how" of agent deployment, deciding which processes should be fully autonomous vs. human-in-the-loop. Target Operating Model Design: Define the future-state metrics (KPIs) that the AI transformation must achieve, ensuring they align with board-level goals. 2. Readiness & Readiness Assessment Maturity Audit: Evaluate the customer’s AI Readiness across three lenses: Culture (willingness to trust agents), Data (is the intelligence layer fueled correctly?), and Process (is the workflow "agent-ready"?). Blocker Mitigation: Identify internal policy or workforce hurdles early and partner with leadership to dismantle them. 3. Change Management & Workforce Evolution Organizational Change (OCM): Advise on workforce shifts, including the creation of AI Centers of Excellence (COE) and the retraining of staff to manage an "AI Workforce." Policy Transformation: Guide customers on updating internal governance to allow for autonomous agent actions (e.g., automated contract redlining or tail-spend negotiation). 4. Cross-Functional Leadership Architect Collaboration: Act as the "Tone Setter" for the technical team. You define the Vision; the Agentic Architect defines the Build. Roadmap Integration: Bridge the gap between the customer’s long-term transformation goals and the Coupa Product Roadmap to ensure the client is always ahead of the curve. What You Will Bring to Coupa: Agentic AI Expertise: Deep understanding of the GenAI and Agentic AI landscape (LLMs, RAG, autonomous agents). You must understand what agents can and cannot do today. Procurement/Finance Domain: Professional fluency in Source-to-Pay (S2P) processes. You need to understand the "Legacy" pain points to architect the "Agentic" solution. Executive Presence: Possess the dual-fluency to secure C-Suite buy-in on AI vision while simultaneously collaborating with functional leads to map that vision to day-to-day S2P workflows. Proven Digital Transformation Leadership: 10+ years of experience leading large-scale, cross-functional digital transformation initiatives at the Enterprise level. Coupa Experience: Previous experience with the Coupa platform is a plus, but we value Agent-First Thinking above platform familiarity. Consulting Pedigree: Experience in Tier-1 management consulting or leading massive digital transformation projects. Referenceability: Leading the client through the "25 Compose Engagements" to a state of strong, public advocacy. Agent Density: Increasing the number of active, high-value agents deployed within a client’s ecosystem. Executive Impact: Delivery of the Executive Impact Report that proves a measurable shift in operational efficiency. \nCoupa complies with relevant laws and regulations regarding equal opportunity and offers a welcoming and inclusive work environment.
