Direct your teams to build the technical tracking required to monitor, forecast, and optimize enterprise-wide AI spend, vendor costs, and LLM API consumption across all departments. Vendor Lifecycle Governance: Oversee the technical evaluation and continuous risk profiling for all third-party AI platforms and integrated business tools used across the company. 4.

Velocity-First Mindset: A proven track record of driving rapid technology adoption and change management across diverse business units while successfully maintaining rigorous corporate guardrails. Collaborative Diplomacy: Exceptional ability to build relationships and work seamlessly across all enterprise departments - from Go-To-Market and Product/R&D to Finance, GRC, Legal, and the DPO - bridging the gap between business enablement, execution, and compliance. Technical Depth: Deep conceptual and architectural understanding of modern AI systems (LLMs, MLOps, RAG, vector databases) and enterprise IT/Security infrastructure. You can easily challenge assumptions and guide your direct reports.
