The Chance

The Director – AI Engineering (Products & Governance) will play a pivotal role in engineering scalable, production grade AI products while embedding governance, risk, and responsible‑AI controls directly into the AI development lifecycle. This role is accountable for translating organizational, regulatory, and ethical AI policies into practical engineering standards, reference architectures, and automated guardrails across model development, deployment, and operations.

The role partners closely with business stakeholders, product leaders, department leaders, legal, risk, and compliance teams to enable rapid AI innovation without compromising trust, safety, or regulatory obligations. The Director is accountable for strengthening regional AI engineering and governance capabilities in service of Providence and other partnering health systems ensuring AI products are robust, auditable, explainable, and compliant by design.
