Key Accountabilities
- **Agentic AI Platform Architecture & Engineering:**
- Design and build core components of GERNAS OS, including agent runtime, orchestration, memory, model routing, tool integration, agent registry, reusable agent services, and multi-agent orchestration patterns. Define reusable architecture for AI agents across banking domains including finance, operations, legal, risk, compliance, customer service, and wealth management. Contribute to the evolution of GERNAS OS as a secure operating layer for enterprise AI agents.
- **Azure AI Services & LLM Engineering:**
- Engineer solutions using Azure OpenAI, Azure AI Search, embeddings, Azure Document Intelligence, vector stores, API gateways, and model management layers. Design secure access patterns for service principals, API credentials, endpoint exposure, index permissions, and enterprise platform connectivity (e.g., Azure Data Bricks to GERNAS). Evaluate and integrate cloud-native AI services, LLM providers, model routers, and enterprise AI gateways with strong security and governance controls.
- **Responsible AI, Governance & Compliance:**
- Embed Responsible AI principles into the platform lifecycle, including fairness, safety, privacy, accountability, transparency, explainability, and human-in-the-loop controls. Implement guardrails, prompt defense, PII protection, model usage monitoring, audit trails, policy enforcement, and AI governance automation. Work closely with AI Governance, Model Risk, Data Governance, Information Security, Enterprise Architecture, and Compliance teams to ensure platform alignment with internal policies and regulatory expectations.
- **Enterprise Integration & Tool Orchestration:**
- Design and implement secure tool orchestration and MCP gateway patterns enabling governed interaction between AI agents and enterprise systems, APIs, workflows, and backend services. Define standards for tool onboarding, access control, observability, error handling, tool metadata, agent-to-agent communication, and reusable integration components. Partner with API management, integration, cloud, data platform, and application teams to industrialize AI agent connectivity.
- **Platform Operations, Observability & Reliability:**
- Build and operate platform observability covering traces, prompts, tool calls, latency, cost, token usage, model performance, and agent behavior. Drive DevOps, MLOps, LLMOps, and AIOps practices including CI/CD pipelines, environment management, release governance, monitoring dashboards, benchmarking, evaluation pipelines, and production support. Ensure platform resilience, scalability, cost optimization, capacity management, and operational readiness.
- **Use Case Delivery & Stakeholder Enablement:**
- Partner with business, technology, risk, compliance, and vendor teams to assess AI use cases and convert them into executable platform delivery plans. Guide teams on onboarding use cases, raising platform requests, using enterprise runbooks, and following approved development pathways. Support executive-level discussions, solution walkthroughs, funding proposals, roadmap planning, and platform adoption narratives.
- **Vendor & Partner Management:**
- Work with external vendors and strategic partners to review solution architecture, delivery plans, implementation quality, technical documentation, and platform alignment. Ensure vendor-built AI solutions align with GERNAS OS architecture, FAB security standards, AI governance requirements, and operational support expectations.
- **Hiring, Mentoring & Capability Building:**
- Mentor AI engineers, platform engineers, cloud engineers, data scientists, and DevOps engineers on enterprise-grade agentic AI delivery. Help define technical interview criteria, engineering standards, and team capability requirements. Contribute to internal knowledge assets such as enterprise agent frameworks, runbooks, reference architectures, and developer guidance.
