AI Governance Engineer

Project Description:

• The AI Governance Engineer is the technical production engine behind the bank's AI standards and controls build-out. Working under the direction of the AI Governance & Controls Lead, this role drafts the standards library, engineers controls as implementable and testable requirements, builds control-to-evidence mappings, and produces the documentation and automation that make governance operational rather than aspirational.
• This is a technical governance role, not a policy-writing role alone: the engineer works directly with platform capabilities (gateway policies, entitlements, logging), expresses controls in verifiable terms, contributes to policy-as-code and evidence automation where feasible, and validates that what the standard requires is what the platform enforces.

Responsibilities

• :Standards & Controls Engineerin
• gDraft and iterate the AI standards library under the Lead's direction: model onboarding and approval, oversight tiers, logging/retention, agentic guardrails, data-classification handling, and acceptable use
• .Engineer each control as a testable requirement: definition, enforcement point, owner, evidence artifact, and validation method
• .Build and maintain obligation-to-control-to-evidence mappings against regulatory guidance and internal policy
• .Contribute to policy-as-code and controls-automation approaches with the platform team where controls can be enforced or checked mechanically
• .Evidence & Assessment Productio
• nProduce evidence artifacts, control attestations, and assessment documentation for deviations, exceptions, and governance reviews
• .Validate platform-generated evidence (audit logs, entitlement records, quota enforcement) against control requirements; document gaps and drive fixes
• .Support deviation and exception lifecycle management: drafting, compensating-control documentation, tracking, and closure evidence
• .Assemble components of examiner-readiness and audit-response packages
• .Governance Operations Suppor
• tSupport AI Control Group, working group, and committee operations with prepared materials, assessments, and documented decisions
• .Maintain the AI use case and agent registry data quality in partnership with intake and platform onboarding
• .Document governance processes, runbooks, and templates in bank repositories for FTE handover
• .Transfer working knowledge to bank FTEs throughout the engagement
