Role - AI Governance & Controls Lead
Industry - BCM
Mode - Remote
Project description

The AI Governance & Controls Lead is the senior individual contributor responsible for operationalizing client's AI governance framework: authoring and maintaining AI standards and controls, executing the policy exception and deviation processes, and producing the examiner-ready evidence that demonstrates our controls are enforced mechanically rather than attested annually. This role partners closely with Technology Risk Management, Model Risk Management, Compliance, Cybersecurity, Enterprise Architecture, and the enterprise AI platform team to ensure every AI use case at the bank operates within a defensible, testable control framework.

This is a hands-on, technically fluent governance role. The Lead works directly with platform-enforced controls (gateway policies, entitlements, quotas, audit logging), translates regulatory obligations (e.g., SR 26-2, NYDFS guidance) into implementable standards,



and validates that evidence generated by the platform satisfies second-line and examiner expectations. The role serves as a key contributor to policy refresh cycles, regulatory response efforts, and the continuous-monitoring design that replaces point-in-time annual review

Responsibilities

Author, maintain, and version the bank's AI standards library: model selection and approval, human oversight tiers, prompt/response logging and retention, agentic guardrails, and acceptable-use requirements.
Build and maintain the obligation-to-control-to-evidence mapping against applicable regulatory guidance (SR 26-2, NYDFS, and evolving supervisory expectations).
Operate the AI policy exception and TRM deviation processes: draft time-bound deviation requests, define compensating controls, track expiries and remediation paths to closure.
Support annual policy refresh cycles and translate policy principles into testable, enforceable requirements in partnership
