Reporting to the VP, Information Security, you will serve as the central cross-functional connector across HR, Information Security, Product, Engineering, Legal, Privacy, Quality, and other functions; ensuring AI governance is embedded consistently throughout the organization rather than siloed within a single team. A central aspect of this role is interfacing with Siemens AI Governance colleagues to build and mature a joint AI governance consortium, sharing best practices, frameworks, and emerging standards across the broader Siemens portfolio.
You are a seasoned governance operator with deep technical credibility, adept at navigating complex stakeholder environments and translating AI risk concepts into business language that resonates at the executive level.
In this role you will get to:
- Lead the development and ongoing improvement of a comprehensive AI Governance Framework aligned with Dotmatics' risk appetite and regulatory obligations, including the EU AI Act, ISO 42001, and NIST AI RMF
- Maintain an AI use case registry, establish risk tiering and oversight levels for AI systems, and provide subject matter expertise to evaluate AI tools, models, and applications proposed by business and product teams
- Partner with leadership and functional teams to assess AI use cases across model behaviour, data usage, privacy, and operational risk; ensuring alignment with the company's ISO/IEC 27001 ISMS, ISO 9001 QMS, and GxP requirements
- Serve as program lead for the Dotmatics AI Governance Council, coordinating agendas, workflows, and decision-ready materials for Council and executive review
- Act as the primary Dotmatics liaison to the Siemens AI Governance Consortium, representing the company in cross-portfolio working groups and contributing to joint frameworks and maturity models
- Provide AI governance responses to customer RFIs, security questionnaires, and due diligence inquiries
- Embed governance checkpoints into the SDLC alongside Product and Engineering; align AI controls with the broader security posture and incident response procedures
- Lead the creation and maintenance of AI governance policies, SOPs, and supporting documentation; and develop and deliver AI governance training across the organization
- Produce management reporting, metrics, and dashboards to keep senior leadership informed of program status, risk exposure, and control effectiveness
- Drive continuous improvement by incorporating lessons learned, evolving standards, and regulatory developments
