Role Summary
T. Rowe Price is building a future where artificial intelligence transforms how we serve clients, manage investments, and run our business. As part of this journey, we are hiring a Lead Business Analyst to join the AI Strategy & Enablement team. This is a high-impact role for a structured, analytical thinker who can bridge business priorities and AI solutions. You’ll play a critical role in shaping enterprise AI use cases—translating needs into opportunities, identifying delivery risks early, and supporting roadmap planning for scalable solutions. We’re looking for someone with deep experience in business analysis or digital transformation, fluency in AI/ML concepts, and the ability to operate across business, data, and technology teams. Strong problem-solving, executive communication, and cross-functional leadership are essential.
Responsibilities
AI Use Case Shaping: Review and refine AI proposals submitted through intake channels by translating high-level ideas into well-structured use cases with clear business objectives, solution logic, and outcome definitions. Engage with stakeholders across business and technology to capture missing details and ensure submissions meet the standard required for prioritization and planning.
Feasibility & Risk Assessment: Assess early-stage use cases for data availability, model risk, regulatory constraints, and implementation complexity. Partner with Compliance, Risk, Legal, and Technology to identify and address blockers that may impact delivery or value realization.
Capability Mapping & Reuse: Evaluate whether proposed solutions can be addressed through existing AI capabilities, either proprietary or vendor-based. Maintain an active understanding of available solutions and support rationalization of the AI build-versus-buy landscape.
Prioritization Support: Contribute to portfolio-level decision-making by assessing use cases across business impact, technical feasibility, complexity, and interdependencies. Provide structured inputs to prioritization and funding discussions to help focus resources on the highest-value opportunities.
Financial Planning & Resourcing: Collaborate with Finance and domain leads to estimate cost-to-deliver and ongoing resource needs, including staffing, licensing, and vendor spend. Support early-stage business case development to inform enterprise planning and tollgate approvals.
Roadmap Development: Help develop and sequence delivery roadmaps that reflect interdependencies, capacity constraints, and business urgency. Ensure roadmaps align to broader AI strategy and planning cadences, and are grounded in realistic delivery assumptions.
Vendor Evaluation: Participate in vendor reviews, assess solution fit and integration feasibility, and support total cost of ownership analysis. Coordinate demo sessions and synthesize findings to inform vendor selection and onboarding.
Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner closely with strategy leads, product managers, data scientists, engineers, and risk partners to drive alignment, clarify requirements, and advance AI opportunities from intake through initial planning. Facilitate working sessions and ensure effective handoffs across stakeholders.
