Sr. Director, AI Platform Engineering & Enablement

Ford Motor Company • Dearborn, MI

About The Position

This role requires a leader who brings deep technical knowledge of enterprise AI platforms and the strategic judgment to look across every platform EPEO offers — spanning leading AI and cloud platform providers — and define where AI belongs, what it should change, and how the organization gets there. This is not an operational role. It is the most forward-looking mandate in the platform organization: a cross-cutting AI strategy and enablement function with authority across all platform organizations.

The Senior Director, AI Platform Engineering & Enablement brings two equally weighted mandates. On the engineering side, this leader applies deep technical judgment to evaluate, architect, and govern how AI capabilities are integrated across EPEO’s platform portfolio — ensuring what is deployed is the right capability, properly engineered, and fit for the business functions it serves. On the enablement side, this leader ensures AI capabilities from our major providers are not just procured but actively activated, governed, and embedded into how our platforms operate. This person does not wait for the organization to ask what AI can do. They already know, and they have a plan.

Requirements

• Deep technical knowledge of enterprise AI platforms.
• Strategic judgment.
• Ability to look across multiple AI and cloud platform providers.
• Technical judgment to evaluate, architect, and govern AI capabilities.
• Understanding of how to activate, govern, and embed AI capabilities.

Responsibilities

• Define where AI belongs, what it should change, and how the organization gets there.
• Evaluate, architect, and govern how AI capabilities are integrated across EPEO’s platform portfolio.
• Ensure deployed AI capabilities are the right ones, properly engineered, and fit for business functions.
• Ensure AI capabilities from major providers are actively activated, governed, and embedded into platform operations.
