Job Description

Ready to build your career? We want to hear from you.

The AI Platform Owner is responsible for the governance, administration, stability, scalability, and long-term health of Pomerleau's AI platforms, including Palantir Foundry and Microsoft Copilot. The role manages platform access, license allocation, environment controls, usage monitoring, cost oversight, development guardrails, integration patterns, and operational risk mitigation. This person is expected to take high initiative: proactively monitoring platform activity, identifying risks before they become issues, enforcing platform rules, and ensuring AI deployment happens in a secure, compliant, cost-conscious, and scalable way.

• Proactively review platform activity, identify unusual usage or emerging risks, and coordinate corrective actions before issues affect users, costs, security, or compliance.
• Partner with Product Leads, Tech Leads, and IT stakeholders to support solution design and ensure adherence to platform standards. The operating model positions the Platform Owner alongside product teams as the owner of platform rules and standards.
