AI Enablement & Continuous Improvement Lead
Location: Remote / Hybrid (Canada)
Company: LP & Associates
Salary: $50,000–$65,000 per year (based on experience)
Start: Immediate

About the Role

We are seeking an AI Enablement & Continuous Improvement Lead to support a growing food production and manufacturing organization that produces high-quality specialty baked products designed for people with dietary needs. The company focuses on delivering products that are safe, reliable, and enjoyable — ensuring people with limited dietary options don’t have to compromise on taste or quality.

This is a strategic, hands-on enablement role embedded full-time within one of our client organizations, where you’ll play a direct role in improving workflows, strengthening data practices, and enabling AI-supported operations across multiple teams.

Key Responsibilities

Lead workflow enablement and AI adoption across departments.
Review processes and SOPs to identify automation and improvement opportunities.
Convert manual and repetitive workflows into structured, AI-assisted models.
Clean and model data to support reporting, forecasting, and automation reliability.
Build dashboards, workflow logic, and automation using Azure, Power BI, SQL, and Python.
Work with leadership to prioritize high-impact workflow improvements.
Deliver training and provide ongoing support through clear communication and iteration.
Maintain version control, governance, and workflow documentation.
Required Technical Skills

Microsoft Azure (resource provisioning and data services)
Power BI (data modeling, DAX, report/dashboard development)
Microsoft SQL Server (querying, joins, ETL patterns)
Python (data preparation and automation scripting)
REST API integration
Practical experience using LLMs (Azure OpenAI, OpenAI, Anthropic, etc.) to solve real workflow problems
Nice-to-Haves

Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) workflows or vector databases (Pinecone, Redis, Milvus, Chroma)
Azure Cognitive Search / Azure AI Studio
Workflow orchestration tools (Azure Data Factory, Prefect, Airflow)
Experience training internal users or delivering documentation/workshops
Bonus Points (Show Us What You’ve Built)

We love people who tinker, experiment, and actually build things:

Have a home lab? (Raspberry Pi cluster, server rack, Proxmox, ESXi, TrueNAS, pfSense, etc.)
Built any Power BI dashboards, APIs, workflows, or automations for yourself or others?
Self-hosted anything? (Nextcloud, Paperless-ngx, Grafana, Jellyfin, Kubernetes, etc.?)
Security-curious? Dabbled with Elastic, Wazuh, Suricata, Security Onion, or SOC tooling?
Experience with vector DBs, RAG frameworks, AI prompt testing, or workflow orchestration?
If you have GitHub repos, GitLab projects, blog posts, demos, or screenshots — we want to see them.

Show us something you built, broke, automated, optimized, or improved.
It matters more than a certification list.
