- This is a high-visibility leadership role demanding a rare blend of strategic business acumen and deep engineering leadership.
Responsibilities
- Enterprise AI Catalyst: Partner with leadership across all business units (Marketing, Sales, Customer Success, HR, Product) to identify, prioritize, and safely accelerate AI use cases that drive productivity and operational velocity.
- AI Governance Committee: Chair or co-lead a cross-functional AI Governance Committee to align product, corporate, legal, and financial stakeholders on global AI initiatives.

- Collaborative Risk Management: Partner closely with the GRC team, Legal, and the DPO to integrate AI-specific vulnerabilities and compliance requirements (e.g., EU AI Act, NIST AI RMF) into the overarching Enterprise Risk Management framework without stalling business velocity.
Requirements
- The Leadership Pedigree: 10+ years of experience in Information Security, IT, or Infrastructure Engineering, with 5+ years of experience managing and scaling multiple teams (IT, Security, and/or AI/Software Engineering).
- 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.
- Executive Communication: Elite communication skills - the ability to translate highly technical engineering concepts into business-impact narratives and clear, data-driven presentations for C-suite executives.
