Role
We are looking for an AI Enablement Architect to join our team. This is a hybrid in-office (Santa Clara CA HQ preferred, Bellevue, WA possible) role, reporting to the Director, People Success Enablement in our People & Culture organization. As Zscaler transitions to an AI-native organization, this individual will serve as the hands-on catalyst to develop and scale company-wide enablement initiatives, reimagining workforce capability building for the age of AI. You will design workflow-embedded learning solutions, facilitate interactive learning labs, and champion human-AI collaboration to accelerate workforce productivity and responsible adoption.
What you’ll do (Role Expectations)
- Pioneer agentic enablement by designing and deploying conversational agents, contextual digital coaches, and workflow-embedded guidance rather than static LMS courses
- Architect and scale company-wide AI capability-building initiatives, orchestrating high-impact learning sprints, live tool walkthroughs, and practical learning labs across diverse skill levels
- Own the end-to-end enablement charter for the People & Culture organization, turning functional teams into AI power users and internal champions
- Activate peer knowledge scaling by cultivating an internal network of AI champions to crowdsource real-world use cases and cross-team best practices
- Establish holistic enablement measurement frameworks that track business impact, productivity gains, and reclaimed time, while ensuring alignment with security, privacy, and ethical guardrails
Who You Are (Success Profile)
- You are AI-native by default. Generative AI is your everyday thought partner and productivity accelerator, instinctively collaborating with modern tools to ideate, synthesize, and iterate while applying sound critical judgment.
- You are a pragmatic builder. You thrive on rolling up your sleeves to prototype, test, and ship hands-on enablement solutions, balancing rapid execution with user-centric value creation.
- You thrive in dynamic environments. You are energized by emerging technology, comfortable navigating evolving priorities, and eager to adapt quickly in high-growth settings.
- You are an engaging facilitator. You bring infectious energy, clarity, and actionable guidance to every session, creating collaborative spaces where employees at all skill levels can experiment and build fluency.
- You are a continuous learner. You maintain relentless curiosity for advancements in AI, proactively mastering new workflows and translating complex technical capabilities into simple, accessible insights.
What We’re Looking for (Minimum Qualifications)
- Demonstrated, hands-on daily proficiency using modern generative AI tools (e.g., enterprise LLMs) to develop effective enablement solutions and accelerate everyday workflows
- 5+ years of experience in enablement, talent development, or instructional design within fast-paced environments, including direct AI enablement or AI transformation experience
- Proven track record designing modern, bite-sized learning assets, playbooks, and toolkits embedded directly into daily workflows rather than relying on traditional long-form training
- Demonstrated success facilitating engaging, interactive workshops and hands-on learning labs for cross-functional audiences
- Proven ability to partner with cross-functional stakeholders to drive capability-building and organizational change initiatives
What Will Make You Stand Out (Preferred Qualifications)
- Experience designing modern agentic learning solutions, custom internal AI assistants, or AI literacy curricula that move beyond static LMS courses
- Prior background driving enablement or change initiatives within high-growth SaaS, enterprise software, or cybersecurity environments
- Track record of measuring enablement success through behavioral scorecards, sentiment analysis, and tangible business impact metrics rather than traditional training completion hours
