AI Lead

THE ROLE

• Partner directly with business and product teams to identify scope and build agentic workflows AI agents and reusable skills that solve real problems
• Advise on the platform decisions for where automations and agents are hosted (e.g. n8n Databricks Apps Claude-based tooling) balancing speed of delivery against maintainability cost and governance requirements
• Design how agents and automations access data working out the right layer to query from (governed semantic layer vs raw source) what permissions and guardrails should sit around that access and how to avoid duplicating data prep or creating shadow pipelines
• Shape how data is organised to make it usable by automations in the first place partnering with Data Engineering on cataloguing metadata and lineage (e.g. via OpenMetadata) so agents are working from documented trustworthy sources
• Establish and maintain a model for ownership and stewardship: clear stewards for data domains and business processes and clear owners for the automations/agents built on top of them so accountability doesnt disappear once something goes live
• Run the governance scaffolding for AI/automation adoption tiered autonomy classification risk assessment and lifecycle management (build test deploy monitor retire) so the organisation can scale agentic tooling without losing control of it
• Work closely with the Data Architecture & Strategy Lead to prioritise which processes get automated first against the teams active strategic initiatives

• Hands-on experience with LLM evaluation and observability and monitoring tooling (e.g. LangSmith Langfuse Braintrust etc.)
• A systems mindset able to think simultaneously about the automation itself the data it depends on the platform it runs on and who is accountable for each of those pieces
• Experience or strong interest in data governance and metadata management (e.g. OpenMetadata data cataloguing lineage) and how it underpins reliable automation
• A builders instinct paired with a governance instinct comfortable shipping quickly but equally comfortable stepping back to ask who owns this whos accountable if it breaks and does it need guardrails
• Strong stakeholder skills able to sit with a business team translate a manual or ad hoc process into a well-scoped automation and bring the right people into a conversation about ownership
