The implementation of AI systems across client presents a significant opportunity to enhance teaching and learning, research, and administrative operations while freeing operational time and cost for reinvestment. To realize this value, specialized expertise is required that does not currently exist within the central IT organization. The proposed AI Engineer, AI Operations Specialist, and AI Prompt Engineer roles represent critical first capabilities needed to further design, implement, and maintain enterprise-grade AI systems and their supporting data pipelines university-wide.



These specialized positions will enable automation of routine functions across the institution and power the wide and expanding array of AI-based institutional initiatives, while creating a stronger foundation for future AI adoption throughout the global campus network. The specialized knowledge required—spanning data pipeline engineering, machine learning implementation, and AI system operations—is distinct from traditional IT roles. By establishing these positions now, Northeastern will strengthen its position at the forefront of AI adoption in higher education, enhancing student experiences, accelerating research capabilities, and improving administrative efficiency across all university functions. These roles represent both a strategic investment in the university's future and a fiscally responsible approach to institutional advancement through technological innovation.
