Job description

Trust Architects build trust in the AI and trust among the people who use it. They make sure every system Avanade Next ships is safe, reliable and ready for production — and that the client's people are confident, capable and willing to adopt new ways of working alongside it.

The role operates across two dimensions. Trust in the AI: evaluation frameworks, accuracy measures, security controls, governance controls and human-in-the-loop safeguards. Trust in the people: adoption design, capability uplift, ways of working and confidence in human-agent collaboration.

SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE

• Hands-on evaluation experience with generative or agentic systems is strongly preferred over policy-only backgrounds.
• Working knowledge of the APAC regulatory environment relevant to their market.
• Practical change and enablement capability with technical audiences and frontline users alike.
• Able to build trust with sceptical stakeholders and to say no with evidence.
• Comfortable in a role that is still being defined, in a track with no established internal precedent.
