Title and Summary Director, AI & Data Strategy - Product Manager, Responsible AI and Privacy Enhancing Technologies Director, AI & Data Strategy - Product Manager, RAI & PETs [Overview] As Product Manager for the Responsible AI and Privacy Enhancing Technologies (RAI & PETs) Toolkit within the AI and Data Office, you will own the product vision, roadmap, and delivery outcomes for Mastercard’s Responsible AI and PET enabled capabilities. Your role is to ensure these capabilities evolve into scalable, adoption ready products that enable teams to meet Responsible AI and data privacy expectations efficiently and consistently across the AI lifecycle. You will work closely with AI Governance, data science, engineering, privacy, security, and risk teams to translate Responsible AI principles, regulatory requirements, and privacy preserving data collaboration needs into clear, outcome focused product capabilities. A core measure of success is your ability to drive measurable adoption, reduce governance and privacy friction, and standardize Responsible AI and PET execution through well-designed product features. This role also supports government and public sector initiatives, ensuring that policy, regulatory, and data sovereignty intent is reflected in product requirements and reusable, scalable implementation patterns. [Role] This is a hands-on product leadership role focused on shaping and executing the roadmap for Mastercard’s RAI & PETs Toolkit and related productized capabilities.
