Global Director, AI, Data, & Emerging Technology Advancement

The Director, AI, Data, and Emerging Technology Advancement is a new leadership role within the Global Business Systems (herein referred to as “GBS”) team and is responsible for building BAC (Baltimore Aircoil Company, Inc.)’s strategy, architecture, governance, and capability across two connected areas: the foundational data that the business runs on, and the AI, automation, and self-service analytics capabilities built on top of it.

This person owns data strategy end to end — architecture, master data governance, tooling, and compliance — and uses that foundation to define how the business uses AI and Emerging Technology tools and self-service analytics safely and effectively.

This is a build role at the intersection of strategy and hands-on governance; accountable for getting the underlying data foundation right, then building the strategy, governance, and training that make safe, effective self-service AI and analytics possible on top of it.
