Job Summary:
As an Executive Director in the Applied Artificial Intelligence team within Corporate Investment Banking at JPMorganChase, you will lead a group of AI practitioners to build and deliver agentic automation capabilities.

Your leadership will help shape the future of how we work and deliver value at scale.
Job Responsibilities:
- Own and evolve shared applied AI capabilities, including agent authoring, orchestration patterns, evaluation, and the human-agent working surface, driving adoption across teams.
- Lead end-to-end delivery of agentic solutions for priority Operations processes, from problem framing to production operation under governance.
- Judge and maintain the balance between productizing durable shared capabilities and developing solution-specific surfaces.
- Mentor and inspire a team of AI engineers and practitioners, fostering a culture of excellence, innovation, and continuous learning.
- Set and uphold technical direction across agent orchestration, tool use, context assembly, human-in-the-loop design, and evaluation of non-deterministic behavior.
- Align delivery across multiple partner streams, resolving dependencies and sequencing without escalation.
- Build and sustain senior stakeholder confidence, translating technical constraints into business consequences and business intent into engineering requirements.
- Define and instrument the evidence base for each solution, measuring agent autonomy and human involvement.
- Drive best practices as a community leader and ensure AI practitioners stay current with the latest advances.
