About the role
Are you excited about shaping how AI becomes real, safe, and scalable in one of the world’s largest financial-services groups? In this role, you will be a key driver of turning AI ideas into tangible business impact—not by coding models yourself, but by connecting the right people, clarifying direction, and ensuring that AI solutions are built responsibly and adopted successfully. This is an opportunity to work at the crossroads of business, technology, and regulation, influencing how AI is designed, governed, and deployed across Allianz Group. You’ll collaborate with engineering, data, risk, security, and legal teams to transform cloud-based AI capabilities into products that are trusted, compliant, and create measurable value. You don’t need to tick every box or master every tool listed. What we value most is your ability to lead, simplify complexity, navigate stakeholders, and drive AI initiatives from concept to scale in a thoughtful, structured way.
