Role
We are looking for an experienced professional to lead customer delivery of AI Governance solutions to enterprise clients in multiple regulated industries.

- Develop reference architectures, maturity assessments, and trust frameworks that become repeatable, sellable IP

- Led a business model transformation in a prior role
- Built something from zero inside an established company (ie. a new function, product, or business line)

- You Are:
