GenAI Industrialization: Lead the enterprise rollout of Amazon Bedrock and AgentCore, defining operating models, deployment frameworks, and best practices.
Program Governance: Own the financial health, risk mitigation, and delivery success of the transformation program.
Global Team Leadership: Oversee cross-functional teams of Cloud Architects, AI Engineers, and DevOps professionals.
Risk & Compliance: Ensure all AI implementations meet strict security, ethical AI, and regulatory frameworks required in the financial sector.

What You Bring to the Table

AWS Expertise: Proven, hands-on strategic experience with AWS Launchpad, Amazon Bedrock, and enterprise Cloud Services.
Executive Presence: Extensive experience managing C-suite stakeholders, managing organizational change, and navigating complex corporate governance.
Industry Background: Prior experience driving cloud/AI transformation within Insurance, Financial Services, or similarly highly regulated industries.
Technical Acumen: A strong architectural understanding of GenAI concepts (RAG, AI Agents, Agentic Workflows) and DevSecOps automation.
Delivery Mastery: Expertise in benefits management, project planning, and crisis mitigation for large-scale enterprise deployments.To Apply: If you are a visionary leader ready to define the future of AI in the financial sector, please submit your CV and a brief overview of your AWS Launchpad experience.
