• Build and run our AI Operating System - the internal platform for agent orchestration, retrieval and prompt lifecycle management - engineered to stay vendor-neutral as the market shifts
• Take ownership of AI governance - EU AI Act readiness as both deployer and provider, our AI Usage Guideline, and a client-facing Transparency Charter - compliance as a fast, reliable service, never a bottleneck
• Represent the AI CoE on our Tech and AI Board and become the one door every business knocks on for AI questions
