• Manage operational guardrails for agent and LLM usage, ensuring agent activity stays within defined thresholds for time, cost, risk, autonomy, escalation, and business-approved use.

• Monitor and improve agent response-time performance across priority workflows, identifying latency drivers and partnering with technology teams to optimize routing, orchestration, caching, context handling, and service-level expectations.
• Evaluate whether the selected LLM, model, or model tier is appropriate for each task, balancing quality, complexity, latency, cost, risk, and the required level of reasoning before routing work to higher-capability models.
• Maintain visibility into token usage, model consumption, cost trends, and capacity requirements at the agent, workflow, business area, and portfolio levels.
• Translate token, cost, latency, risk, and usage data into capacity management recommendations that keep the agentic operating model aligned with business-area strategic priorities.
• Develop executive-ready reporting that communicates agent health, performance, resilience, risk posture, capacity consumption, and recommended prioritization decisions.
• Partner with product, technology, risk, compliance, analytics, and business stakeholders to refine operating standards and ensure agentic capabilities scale responsibly across the enterprise.

• Experience applying governance, audit, privacy, information classification, responsible AI, model risk, or control expectations to digital, marketing, or technology-enabled business processes.
• Experience developing operating models, playbooks, performance scorecards, executive reporting, adoption plans, and capacity management routines for a business or platform function.
