Is this role right for you?

Strategy & Responsible AI Governance – Work with the business to define and implement a strategy for trustworthy, personalized natural language and agentic interfaces — embedding fairness, transparency, and accountability from design through deployment

Act as lead engineering partner to translate business requirements into responsible architectural patterns and best practices for agentic AI development, balancing innovation with risk and ethical guardrails

Partner with Data, security, risk, legal, and engineering teams to embed AI‑driven resiliency, observability, bias detection, and threat modeling into architecture and governance standards

Champion model risk management practices (e.g., SR 11‑7), regulatory alignment, and readiness for emerging AI regulation across the agentic AI portfolio





Architecting a Responsible Agentic Development Platform and Practice

Work as part of a team defining and delivering the strategy, technical components, and guardrail patterns for a responsible agentic AI ecosystem

Design and implement secure, resilient, and compliant AI platforms that integrate with existing enterprise systems, ensuring alignment with risk, ethics, fairness, and regulatory frameworks

Build on knowledge of event‑driven architecture, message queues, and distributed systems to build resilient, auditable, and scalable agentic workflows in a secure and compliant manner. – Drive search and retrieval architecture, including vector‑based search systems, indexing strategies, and relevance optimization, with attention to provenance, grounding, and hallucination mitigation

Design and embed responsible AI controls – guardrails, content and prompt safety, policy enforcement, explainability, and audit trails – directly into the platform

Manage and iterate on new platform capabilities while balancing the needs of key projects, delivering maintainable, scalable, testable, and easy‑to‑refactor solutions

Work hands‑on and de‑risk the critical parts of our complex projects & Evaluation pipelines. The role will be deeply involved in coding, reviewing, red‑teaming, and optimizing AI solutions

Mentor and Drive a Responsible Engineering Culture





Inspire and mentor teams across architecture and engineering disciplines, cultivating a culture of innovation, responsibility, and trust in AI adoption

Drive next‑generation testing, evaluation, red‑teaming, and observability practices for energetic orchestration of user journeys

Establish responsible AI review and evaluation practices – fairness testing, bias audits, safety evaluations, and ongoing monitoring – as a standard part of the delivery lifecycle

Champion a culture of excellence, inclusion, and continuous learning within the team. When something breaks, you're not satisfied with a workaround. You dig until you understand why, and you bring learning and long‑term solutions back to the team.

Do you have the skills that will enable you to succeed in this role? We'd love to work with you if you have:

Proven experience in AI leadership and delivery roles, with a track record of successfully leading and delivering AI projects — scoping ambiguous problems, communicating trade‑offs, and iterating based on real‑world feedback

Demonstrated experience embedding Responsible AI principles (fairness, transparency, accountability, privacy, and safety) into production AI/ML systems

Extensive experience in Python and its core data science libraries (e.g., Scikit‑learn, Pandas, NumPy, Matplotlib/Seaborn)

Hands‑on experience building and taking LLM‑powered applications to production (retrieval, agents, structured outputs, prompt safety) with appropriate guardrails and evaluations

Experience with Agentic AI frameworks and designing multi‑step AI reasoning processes, including safety, guardrail, and human‑in‑the‑loop design

Experience with MLOps principles and tools for model
