  • Support maintenance and quality assurance of enterprise AI inventories, registries, and attestations for production AI solutions


Metrics, Reporting & Executive Communication

  • Define, review, and enhance AI governance metrics, KPIs, and KRIs to provide transparent, defensible insight into AI adoption, risk posture, and control effectiveness
  • Prepare materials for leadership, governance forums, and regulatory stakeholders, including dashboards, summaries, and presentations
  • Support consistent enterprise reporting on AI initiatives, risks, and governance effectiveness


Stakeholder Partnership & Enablement

  • Act as a trusted advisor to product, engineering, data, risk, compliance, and legal partners on responsible AI governance and control expectations
  • Collaborate with stakeholders across the lines of defense to ensure cohesive execution of AI governance, risk, and audit objectives

  • Proven ability to review, challenge, and influence complex initiatives while balancing innovation with risk and control requirements
  • Experience working across enterprise governance processes, including issue management, policy development, and executive reporting
  • Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to synthesize complex topics for non-experts, audit, and regulatory audiences
