- Define and communicate a clear product vision for agentic AI use cases across core operational domains
- Develop deep understanding of end‑to‑end operational processes across Fund Accounting, Middle Office, Transfer Agency, and Custody
- Identify and prioritize opportunities where agent‑based automation can materially improve accuracy, cycle time, resilience, and control effectiveness
- Align product strategy with business outcomes, regulatory expectations, and enterprise AI risk frameworks
- Translate simplification goals into clear product hypotheses, roadmaps, and measurable success criteria
- Act as the voice of the business, converting domain and operational requirements into a prioritized backlog of product increments and user stories
- Lead agile execution with a focus on incremental value delivery, rapid learning, and operational readiness
- Oversee the full lifecycle of agentic AI solutions, including problem framing, data grounding, workflow integration, approval and human‑in‑the‑loop design, evaluation, production rollout, and post‑deployment performance management
- Treat controls, auditability, explainability, and evidence capture as core product features, not downstream compliance activities
- Use domain expertise to define materiality thresholds, escalation paths, and failure modes appropriate for autonomous or semi‑autonomous execution
- Make informed build, defer, or stop decisions based on agent performance, operational materiality, and control outcomes
- Own ongoing agent performance management in production, including accuracy trends, exception patterns, drift indicators, and remediation actions
- Partner closely with operations leaders, SMEs, risk, data, and engineering teams to validate acceptance criteria and business readiness
- Define and track KPIs tied to efficiency, quality, cycle time, client outcomes, and risk reduction; quantify and communicate value delivered
- Communicate progress, risks, and outcomes clearly to senior stakeholders and influence alignment across global teams
