Ai Solutions Specialist

Widener University is currently seeking an AI Solutions Specialist. Reporting to the Vice President for Enrollment & Technology/Chief Information Officer, this newly created position will help the university’s administrative units put artificial intelligence to practical use, improving the speed and quality of the work that supports our students, faculty, and staff. The role will report directly to the Vice President while it is being established, then move into the Information Technology department.

This is a hands-on role. The AI Solutions Specialist will work with units such as Admissions, Student Financial Services, the Registrar, Finance, Human Resources, Information Technology Services, etc. to identify high-value opportunities, then personally configure, test, deploy, and monitor the tools that address them. It is also strategic: the position maintains a university-wide view of where AI is and should be used, recommends what the university should license, and builds the training that equips staff to leverage these new tools.
