About the role
Executive leader responsible for defining and driving Trustly's internal AI strategy, building and leading AI enablement capabilities, and scaling AI across products and teams to create a competitive advantage.
Responsibilities
- Define and own Trustly's AI enablement strategy, roadmap, and success metrics — ensuring alignment with engineering, product, and business leadership.
- Build and lead a high-performing team of AI engineers, platform engineers, and ML practitioners focused on internal tooling, developer productivity, and AI-assisted product development.
- Drive the evaluation, adoption, and integration of foundation models, LLM orchestration frameworks, and agentic systems into Trustly's core infrastructure and product surfaces.
- Establish governance and standards for responsible AI use — including model evaluation, safety, cost management, and quality frameworks — across the organization.
- Partner with Product and Engineering leaders to identify and prioritize AI-powered features and automations that deliver measurable business impact across payments, risk, and operations.
- Partner with leaders across every function — finance, HR, communications, legal, and operations — to bring agentic workflows and AI-native ways of operating to their teams in a structured, ROI-positive way, with clear prioritization and measurable productivity gains.
- Serve as a thought leader and internal evangelist for AI — running enablement programs, building internal communities of practice, and creating the conditions for teams to experiment and ship.
Qualifications
- 10+ years of experience in technology leadership, with at least 3 years directly leading AI/ML platform, infrastructure, or enablement teams at scale.
- Deep fluency in modern AI tooling — including LLMs, RAG architectures, agentic frameworks (e.g., LangChain, CrewAI), and model evaluation practices — with the technical credibility to engage senior engineers.
- Proven track record of driving AI adoption at a company level: building the programs, platforms, and partnerships that move AI from experimentation to production.
- Strong operator with experience building and growing teams, managing cross-functional stakeholders, and delivering results in fast-moving, high-ambiguity environments.
- Fintech or payments domain experience a strong plus; comfort operating in regulated, high-reliability environments required.
- Excellent communicator — equally fluent in executive strategy conversations and hands-on technical reviews.
