Vice President, Applied AI & Automation at Protective

This is a high-impact leadership role for a seasoned technology strategist with over 12 years of experience. The ideal candidate has a deep background in scaling AI and automation within regulated industries (like insurance or finance) and possesses the technical depth to oversee LLM orchestration and agentic workflows. You should be equally comfortable discussing cloud data architecture with engineers and ROI with executive stakeholders. The position offers a competitive salary range of **$175k–$220k** and the significant perk of being **fully remote**. As a VP-level role, it provides high visibility, allowing you to shape the enterprise-wide AI roadmap from the ground up while building a "champion network" to drive cultural change. **You might be a good fit if you:** * Have successfully deployed GenAI or autonomous agents in a complex, corporate environment. * Possess hands-on experience with platforms like Azure AI, Snowflake, or Databricks. * Are skilled at navigating AI governance, ethics, and legal compliance risks. * Can translate "AI hype" into tangible business value and automated workflows.
