  • Establish best practices for data governance, privacy, security, and responsible AI usage, ensuring compliance with internal policies and applicable regulations.
  • Implement guardrails and review processes for model risk, bias, explainability (where needed), and appropriate use of customer and operational data.
  • Build, lead, and develop a team of AI / ML engineers and applied scientists; set expectations, coach performance, and foster a culture of execution and continuous learning.
  • Manage vendor relationships and partnerships related to AI / ML platforms, tooling, and services.
  • Support budgeting and capacity planning for AI / ML programs and platform investments.

Qualifications:
