• Ensure Responsible AI and regulatory compliance by partnering with Risk, Legal, Compliance, and Data Governance; maintain documentation, auditability, monitoring, and remediation.

• Partner with cross-functional squads and Technology/Data teams to deliver production-ready AI capabilities (integration, data quality, performance), and advise senior leaders to align roadmaps to business goals.
  
  

To be successful in this role, we’re seeking the following:

• Bachelor’s degree required; advanced degree in Business, Data/AI, Computer Science, or related field preferred.

• 8–12+ years leading digital transformation, product management, and data/AI initiatives in financial services or similarly regulated industries.
• Proven ability to take emerging technology from ideation through pilot and scale—driving enterprise adoption and measurable business outcomes.
• Strong AI/ML and GenAI fluency, including common solution patterns and use cases (assistants/agents, copilots, extraction/classification, summarization, recommendations).
• Product leadership across vision, roadmaps, backlog ownership, lifecycle management, and release execution in cross-functional delivery environments.
• Operate effectively within governance and data controls (Responsible AI, model risk, privacy/security, lineage/quality), including prompt design and evaluation/measurement approaches.
• Exceptional stakeholder management and change leadership; define KPIs and deliver executive-ready dashboards/scorecards to track performance and sustain adoption.

• Relevant certifications (e.g., Product Management, Responsible AI/Model Risk) are a plus.
