Thomson Reuters is seeking an AI Platform Owner. This position pairs deep platform engineering expertise with the thought leadership needed to bring AI into production operations. The person owns the build, hardening, patching, and lifecycle of the operating system and platform estate, and serves as the top escalation point for complex incidents — while simultaneously identifying where AI and automation can replace manual toil, reduce incident volume, and shorten recovery times. Success depends as much on change leadership as on engineering: shaping standards, winning stakeholder buy-in, and guiding 1st line operations through current AI‑enabled ways of working without disrupting service levels.

About the Role
As a Lead AI Platform Owner, your position will consist of:

Platform engineering depth — packaging and hardening approved OS builds, management agent stacks, patch currency, and configuration standards across the estate

AI-driven operations innovation — identifying, piloting, and scaling AI/automation use cases for incident triage, root cause analysis, runbook execution, and predictive monitoring

Thought leadership and evangelism — articulating an AI‑for‑operations vision, authoring white papers and R&D; positions, staying ahead of emerging tooling

Change management and adoption — driving organizational uptake of new practices, coaching 1st line teams, managing risk and resistance while protecting SLAs

Incident, problem, and change discipline — major incident leadership, RCA, and rigorous change control in a regulated production environment

Service improvement measurement — instrumenting and evidencing reductions in incident volume and MTTR from process redesign and automation

Solution design and implementation planning — translating requirements into physical builds, costed designs, and multi‑workstream delivery plans

Automation and infrastructure‑as‑code fluency — scripting, configuration management, and pipeline‑driven platform delivery

Standards, compliance, and documentation — run books, technical policies,



and AI governance/guardrails to document‑control standards

Cross‑functional influence — partnering with architecture, security, development, vendors, and the business to land change
