AI Strategy & Execution Head

As an AI Program Manager at our company, your role will be to lead the strategic rollout and scaling of AI initiatives across the enterprise. You will be responsible for delivering transformative value through next-generation AI capabilities, including Agentic AI systems, Generative AI (GenAI) solutions, and applications leveraging Transformer-based architectures. Your key responsibilities will include: - Driving enterprise-wide AI strategy execution with a focus on GenAI, Agentic AI frameworks, and advanced LLM-based use cases. - Leading program planning, budgeting, resourcing, and milestone tracking across multiple AI workstreams. - Collaborating with AI architects, data scientists, business units, and product leaders to translate innovation into production. - Governing AI delivery pipelines, prioritizing use cases that demonstrate ROI, operational efficiency, or competitive differentiation. - Overseeing the implementation of agentic AI solutions using tools like LangChain, LangGraph, and vector databases. - Ensuring scalable and secure deployment of models built on Transformer architectures (e.g., BERT, GPT, LLaMA). - Championing responsible AI practices, including fairness, bias mitigation, auditability, and regulatory compliance. - Enabling cross-functional collaboration through effective stakeholder management and regular executive-level reporting. - Driving change management, AI adoption, and organizational readiness through training, communication, and evangelism. Your qualifications should include: - 12 years of overall experience, with 5 years in AI/ML program or portfolio leadership roles. - Strong understanding of GenAI models, Transformer architectures, and their application in real-world scenarios. - Proven experience delivering production-grade AI systems using open-source and commercial platforms. - Familiarity with agent-based architecture and orchestration tools like LanGraph, LangChain, AutoGen, or similar. - Experience managing large, distributed, and cross-functional teams across geographies. - Expertise in Agile/SAFe methodologies and enterprise program governance. - Bachelors or masters degree in computer science, Engineering, Data Science, or related field; MBA preferred. - Certifications such as PMP, PROSCI, or Agile SAFe are a plus. Preferred skills for this role include: - Experience integrating AI into enterprise platforms such as CRM, ERP, ITSM, or data lakes. - Familiarity with vector databases (e.g., Pinecone, FAISS, Weaviate) and RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) techniques. - Strong vendor management and contract negotiation capabilities. - Track record of scaling GenAI/LLM programs from PoC to enterprise deployment.
