Trust Architect (Responsible AI , Risk & Governance)

SUMMARYTrust 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 recent 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.

Location: Flexible across Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, and Perth.
