Redesigned role specification

An output artefact documenting a redesigned role — tasks, skills, AI touchpoints, performance expectations, growth path.

What this means in practice

Distinct from a classical job description because it explicitly names what the human does in AI-integrated work and how performance is evaluated.

Synonyms

redesigned job description , AI-era role spec
