[Remote] AI-Native Engineering Enablement Lead | REMOTE ROLE |
Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. Xlysi LLC is seeking an AI-Native Engineering Enablement Lead to drive enterprise adoption of AI-native software engineering on the Replit platform. The role owns platform strategy, governance, operating-model design, stakeholder alignment, change management, and enablement rather than hands-on application development.
Responsibilities
- Own and drive enterprise-wide adoption of AI-native engineering on Replit
- Define the platform adoption strategy across functions, product teams, and business units
- Build AI-native engineering roadmaps aligned to business priorities and secure leadership buy-in
- Assess current delivery processes and target the highest-value adoption and automation opportunities
- Design the governance model for AI-generated code — review gates, quality bars, IP/security controls, auditability
- Define the AI-native SDLC, engineering standards, and reusable development patterns
- Establish developer workflows and guardrails on the Replit platform
- Ensure the operating model holds up in regulated / audited environments (Life Sciences a plus)
- Partner with Product Owners, Engineering Managers, Enterprise Architecture, Security, and Infrastructure to align on adoption and controls
- Present recommendations and progress to senior leadership; manage expectations and secure sponsorship
- Lead organizational change management — overcome resistance, build champions, sustain momentum
- Run discovery workshops with business and engineering teams
- Identify and prioritize candidate applications for AI-assisted modernization by business value and feasibility
- Build business cases and ROI assessments to justify and sequence investment
- Design and deliver training, best-practice guidance, and reusable playbooks
- Mentor and coach engineering teams through the adoption curve
- Create reusable AI-native development assets that scale across teams
Skills
- Has scaled adoption of a platform across an organization/community
- Can define platform strategy, roadmap and enablement
- Understands developer/user experience
- Can create the knowledge, tooling, standards and community needed for other people to succeed on the platform
- Adjacent experience with ChatGPT, Claude, GitHub Copilot, developer platforms, internal developer portals, cloud platforms, etc. can qualify
- Technical fluency is required to earn credibility and make sound decisions
- Demonstrated track record leading enterprise platform adoption / developer-platform enablement programs (e.g., cloud platform, DevOps/DevEx, low-code, or a developer tooling rollout at scale)
- Proven ability to drive adoption, governance, and change management across large, cross-functional organizations
- Strong stakeholder management up to senior/executive level
- Digital transformation, business process analysis, business-case/ROI development
- Enterprise architecture awareness and Agile delivery
- Solid grasp of the modern software engineering lifecycle, Git, CI/CD, APIs & microservices, and cloud platforms (AWS/Azure/GCP)
- Working familiarity with AI-assisted development tools — Replit, GitHub Copilot, Cursor, and similar
- You should be able to hold a credible technical conversation and make sound architecture/security trade-off calls; deep individual coding is not the expectation
- LLM fundamentals, prompt engineering, agentic workflows
- AI governance and Responsible AI — especially controls for AI-generated code
- 8+ years in consulting, platform enablement, or technology transformation, with time spent leading enterprise-scale adoption/modernization initiatives
- Ideally has Replit experience, but Replit itself is not mandatory.
- Prior experience in a similar enterprise platform enablement role (driving adoption, governance, stakeholder engagement, and platform strategy) is strongly preferred over a purely hands-on engineering background
- Exposure to AI-assisted development platforms preferred
- Life Sciences or other regulated-industry experience is a strong advantage
