About the role
The AIS OGS Team Lead is responsible for leading a Strategic Optimization & Cross-Functional (XFN) Enablement team that designs, governs, and continuously improves the global policy-to-operations system across LOBs.
This role operates at the system design and governance level, ensuring that policies are translated into scalable operational frameworks and that the end-to-end moderation ecosystem remains consistent, measurable, and aligned with Product and Policy direction.

Responsibilities
- Own and govern global policy versioning across LOBs, ensuring consistency, scalability, and structural integrity of the policy system, while aligning policy evolution with long-term operational and business needs.
- Lead the design and continuous optimization of the end-to-end policy-to-operations operating model, translating policy and product objectives into scalable and executable system-level frameworks.
- Serve as a key cross-functional partner to Policy, Product, Risk, and Operations leadership teams, driving alignment on policy interpretation, operational standards, and system design trade-offs.
- Own the design and effectiveness of the policy-to-operations feedback loop, ensuring frontline operational insights are systematically captured, structured, and translated into policy, process, and system improvements.
- Define and maintain governance structures, operational standards, and measurement frameworks to ensure consistent interpretation and execution of policy across regions, products, and operational teams.
- Lead strategic enablement for new policy and product initiatives by ensuring operational system readiness, embedding policy and execution considerations into launch design, and providing system-level guidance on scalability and operational risk.
