Title and Summary

Director, AI & Data Strategy Enterprise Engagement

About the AI & Data Organization
Mastercard’s AI & Data organization is responsible for accelerating the enterprise’s use of data and artificial intelligence to drive business growth, operational efficiency, and innovation. The team partners across business units to enable scalable data platforms, advance AI capabilities, and ensure responsible, high-impact application of emerging technologies.
Within this organization, the Enterprise Engagement team focuses on building intelligent systems that guide how AI use cases are discovered, shaped, and executed across the enterprise.
Overview
This role will contribute to the evolution of a traditional intake process into an AI-powered, agent-driven platform that guides users from idea to execution readiness. Rather than executing use cases directly, this role will focus on building the experience, intelligence, and workflows that enable others to execute effectively at scale.
We are intentionally hiring for complementary strengths across candidates. Successful hires will bring depth in either:
• User-facing experience design & engagement, or
• Technical implementation of AI solutions (including agents and workflow integration)

• Own key components of the AI-driven intake and engagement platform (e.g., user experience, agent workflows, decision logic, or context layers)
• Take a “do, then automate” approach - leveraging hands-on experience to rapidly transition manual processes into scalable, agent-driven workflows
• Partner with business units to understand real-world needs and translate them into intelligent guidance, decisioning logic, and user experiences
• Collaborate with AI Strategy, Engineering, Legal and Governance teams to integrate enterprise platforms, governance requirements, and capabilities into unified experience
• Influence stakeholders to adopt and rely on the platform as the primary entry point for AI and data initiatives
• Create tangible system artifacts such as agent workflows, decision frameworks, user journeys, and automated guidance
• Gather and synthesize feedback to continuously improve platform intelligence, user experience, and identify high value enterprise AI demand signals ________________________________________
