About The Job You are the key architect for the standardization and integration of the global AI Governance and AI Runtime components of the Allianz AI Factory. In close collaboration with all relevant stakeholders inside and outside Allianz Technology, you define the platform architecture, interfaces, and guardrails that enable teams to plug-and-play with cost, safety, and compliance built in. Own the reference architecture for the AI Factory platform layer (governance and runtime) across Allianz.

Standardize and integrate AI governance and runtime components: policy-as-code, identity/permissioning, model gateways and routing/caching, vector/RAG, prompt management, observability/telemetry, secrets, and data controls.

Curate the AI tool and framework landscape: set platform standards, operate sandboxes, and plan deprecation/retirement. Design multi-tenant, compliant architectures aligned with Security, CISO, Risk, Compliance, Data Protection, and Legal requirements.

Establish model lifecycle governance: evaluation, red teaming, bias/safety testing, provenance, audit, and change management. Optimize cost/performance of inference (caching, batching, compression) and implement usage policies, quotas, and quality controls. Deep expertise in AI/ML platform architecture and engineering, with hands-on experience designing reference architectures spanning governance, runtime, model gateways, vector/RAG pipelines, and observability at enterprise scale.

Strong command of AI governance and model lifecycle management, including policy-as-code, red teaming, bias/safety testing, provenance tracking, audit frameworks, and change management processes.



Proven ability to define and enforce platform standards across a complex technology landscape, including curating tool and framework ecosystems, operating sandboxes, and managing deprecation and retirement cycles. Extensive experience in designing multi-tenant, compliant, and secure architectures, with a working knowledge of zero-trust principles, disaster recovery, and alignment with Security, CISO, Risk, Compliance, Data Protection, and Legal requirements.

Strong

FinOps and cost optimization acumen, with the ability to drive inference efficiency (caching, batching, compression) and implement usage policies, quotas, and quality controls that balance performance with financial responsibility. Demonstrated ability to partner across organizational boundaries - collaborating with business units, global entities, vendors, and internal tech leaders to align roadmaps, define SLAs/SLOs, and operationalize platform services.
