• Create and document governance paths for different AI use-case scenarios—including internally built models, third‑party AI solutions, GenAI tools, and customer‑facing AI—following direction from the AI Governance Lead.

• Translate regulatory and industry requirements into actionable controls, standards, procedures, and guidelines to ensure compliant AI operations.

• Perform and support risk assessments for new and enhanced AI use cases across the enterprise.

• Conduct and support key governance activities, including AI testing, validation, explainability reviews, fairness and bias assessments, model documentation, and ongoing model monitoring.

• Prepare materials and support facilitation of AI Review Board governance meetings, ensuring documentation and decisions are recorded accurately.

• Maintain accurate inventories and documentation of AI models, controls, risk logs, and identified exceptions.

• Partner with Legal, Privacy & Compliance, Information Security, IT, Data & Analytics, and Enterprise Risk teams to ensure alignment and support responsible innovation.

• Respond to AI governance inquiries, escalations, and policy interpretation requests, escalating to the AI Governance Lead as appropriate.

• Contribute to the creation and enhancement of governance policies, standards, templates, playbooks, and guidance materials that strengthen the organization’s approach to AI governance.

• Evaluate AI governance and lifecycle management tools and assist in implementing solutions supporting model inventory, bias detection, workflow management, and compliance automation.

• Help build and maintain a centralized knowledge base of AI governance resources, best practices, and training materials.

• Develop KPIs and dashboards to monitor program adoption, governance maturity, risk posture, and overall control effectiveness.

• Assist in producing recurring reports on AI compliance trends, risk issues, and emerging concerns for leadership and oversight bodies.

• Track evolving regulations and industry trends and provide actionable insights to inform governance enhancements.

What You’ll Need

• 3+ years of experience in AI governance, data governance, technology risk, compliance, or model risk management.

• Solid understanding of AI/ML concepts such as model types, evaluation metrics, explainability, fairness/bias detection, drift management, and model documentation practices.

• Experience working with regulatory or industry frameworks relevant to AI or model risk management.

• Proven ability to collaborate across Legal, Compliance, InfoSec, Risk, and Technology teams, ideally within regulated environments.

• Exceptional communication skills, able to translate complex technical and regulatory topics into clear, business‑friendly language.

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Data Science, Information Systems, or a related field.

• 5-7++ years of experience in governance, risk, AI/ML operations, compliance, or technology program management.

• Experience in insurance, financial services, or other regulated industries is preferred.
