Design, build, and execute the AI/ML and GenAI platform strategy aligned to enterprise architecture, security, and risk standards.
Own the engineering and lifecycle management of AI/ML platform components (e.g., development workspaces, training/inference patterns, model registry, feature storage patterns, experiment tracking, prompt/version management, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) enablement, and reusable templates) for safe and deliberate consumption across the organization.
Establish and champion DevSecOps practices for platform delivery, including GitLab source control, build automation, and CI/CD pipelines for infrastructure and application deployments.
Deploy infrastructure as code (IaC) to the cloud using Terraform modules and pipelines; define standards for environments, networking, identity, secrets, encryption, logging, and configuration management.
Partner with Cybersecurity, Risk, and other 2nd line of defense teams to implement and evidence required security controls (e.g., IAM least privilege, network segmentation, encryption, vulnerability management, audit logging, and policy-as-code) across platform services.
Implement governance patterns for AI/ML and GenAI (e.g., model and prompt lifecycle controls, lineage/traceability for data, prompts, and outputs, approvals, change management, risk assessments, and operational readiness) consistent with enterprise data governance and regulatory obligations.
Provide technical leadership and hands-on engineering to solve complex platform problems (performance, reliability, scalability, cost, and security), and guide engineers through designs, reviews, and delivery.
Build platform reliability through automation and observability (monitoring, logging, tracing, SLOs), and partner with production support teams to increase resiliency, reduce toil, and improve time to recover.
Enable self-service platform consumption via standardized APIs, reusable pipelines, templates, and documentation; in an Agile environment, may serve as an Agile/DevSecOps champion to accelerate delivery while maintaining compliance.
