Support the evaluation, implementation, testing, monitoring, and ongoing lifecycle management of both internally developed and third-party AI/ML solutions.

Assist in assessing vendor-provided and out-of-the-box AI models, including their capabilities, limitations, performance characteristics, implementation considerations, and governance implications.

Help translate well-defined business problems into analytical frameworks and collaborate with cross-functional teams to define success metrics, testing methodologies, and solution approaches.

Contribute to model evaluation, documentation, A/B testing, validation support, and monitoring to help ensure model performance, fairness, stability, and compliance with Responsible AI principles.

Communicate technical results clearly to technical and non-technical stakeholders and contribute to recommendations regarding model performance, implementation, and risk.
