This position is part of the Collins Digital Technology AI organization and serves as the centralized service owner for AI-powered developer tools deployed across engineering and software development communities at Collins. As AI coding assistants and developer productivity tools rapidly proliferate across the enterprise, this role provides the operational consistency, stakeholder alignment, and compliance oversight necessary to deploy and scale these capabilities responsibly — and to maximize time to value for each program and business unit that adopts them.
The AI Developer Tools Service Manager bridges the worlds of Digital Technology, Software Engineering, Program Management, and a matrix of compliance functions — including Cybersecurity, Legal, Privacy, Export Control, and Responsible AI — to ensure that users can harness AI developer tools safely, efficiently, and in full alignment with enterprise standards. This role additionally provides a clear escalation path and a single point of engagement for internal customers, vendor partners, and enterprise platform teams.
This is a hybrid-based position at one of Collins’ major facilities.
What YOU will do:
Use Case Identification, Intake & Scoping
Serve as focal for engineering teams, program offices, and business unit leadership seeking to adopt AI-powered developer tools, including AI coding assistants, code review tools, documentation generators, and related productivity platforms.
Assess proposed use cases against applicable enterprise policies, contractual obligations, export control restrictions, and program-specific constraints before proceeding to deployment.
Compliance Consulting & Policy Alignment
Coordinate with Cybersecurity, Legal, Privacy, Export Control (ITAR/EAR), and Responsible AI functions to evaluate each deployment scenario for compliance risk and determine the applicable set of policies, controls, and documentation requirements.
Translate compliance requirements into practical guidance for engineering teams — including establishing clear boundaries for AI tool usage, defining permissible and restricted input types, and communicating data handling obligations in plain language that developers can act on.
Service Management & Operations
Serve as the operational owner for AI developer tool services, including triaging and dispositioning support tickets, managing issue escalations, and coordinating resolution across vendor and internal platform teams.
Conduct regular business reviews with vendor partners and internal stakeholders to assess service performance, review usage data, discuss open issues, and align on roadmap priorities.
Vendor Management & Relationship Development
Serve as the Collins point of contact for AI developer tool vendor relationships, managing day-to-day communications on usage volume, token consumption, license utilization, outstanding issues, and enhancement requests.
Communicate enterprise requirements, policy constraints, and feature needs to vendor account and product teams; advocate for RTX-specific configurations, compliance capabilities, and roadmap investments.
Enterprise & Engineering Alignment
Maintain active alignment with the RTX Enterprise Services AI platform team to ensure AI developer tool deployments integrate with and leverage approved enterprise infrastructure, identity, and governance capabilities.
Collaborate with other AI Organization roles — including AI architects and engineers — to ensure cohesive, consistent AI service delivery across the enterprise.
Classified Environment Support
Actively pursue security clearances required to support AI developer tool deployments in classified and restricted data environments, including program-specific access requirements for classified lab settings.
Coordinate with Security, Program Security Officers (PSOs), and classified lab leadership to develop deployment models for AI developer tools in classified environments, including on-premise, air-gapped, or hybrid configurations as applicable.
Ensure compliance artifacts, use case scoping, and training materials are adapted to meet the additional requirements of classified environments, including CUI handling, CMMC requirements, and Special Access Program (SAP) considerations where applicable.
Qualifications YOU Must Have:
Typically requires a University Degree and minimum 10 years prior relevant experience or an Advanced Degree in a related field and minimum 7 years of experience.
U.S. Citizenship is required.
The ability to obtain and maintain a U.S. government issued security clearance is required.

Experience conducting business reviews, managing escalations, communicating usage data, and contributing to contract discussions.
Demonstrated ability to develop and deliver technical or compliance training programs to engineering or technical audiences.
