You will also shape our approach and deliver upon how AI use cases are evaluated as part of integrated business audits. Through these reviews, you will gain exposure to a broad range of business processes and stakeholders.

You will be responsible for leading day-to-day delivery within the AI risk portfolio, monitoring business developments, and for leading relevant Subject Matter Experts in end-to-end audits to test AI risk controls.

• Strong understanding of modern AI architectures, platforms, and governance controls across the end-to-end AI development and operation lifecycle, and the relevant risks associated with AI use.
• Experience as an AI model developer or practitioner, including testing and monitoring of AI model inputs, methodologies, and outputs, with the ability to assess and re-perform model testing such as benchmarking, red-teaming, evaluation with the use of metrics to measure accuracy, recall, bias, and drift.
• Strong communication skills, with demonstrated ability to build relationships, influence senior stakeholders, and clearly articulate complex issues to Board-level audiences.
• Prior internal audit experience is beneficial but not essential. We welcome candidates from model development, model validation, AI engineering, data science, AI governance and risk management backgrounds.
