• Extending model risk management to generative AI and AI agents: validation, testing, monitoring and human oversight.
• Aligning AI initiatives with GDPR and applicable regulation, such as DORA, NIS2 and, in Spain, the ENS.

• Helping clients meet recognised standards such as ISO/IEC 42001.
• Leading multidisciplinary teams and managing day-to-day delivery with clients.
• Owning the end-to-end solution architecture and engineering rigour of AI systems, ensuring they are designed, built, deployed and governed to run reliably in production.
• Applying MLOps and LLMOps practices: evaluation, monitoring, drift detection and lifecycle management.
• Guiding teams on trade‑offs between rules‑based systems, machine learning, LLMs and hybrid approaches.
• Building value cases and facilitating workshops with client stakeholders to frame problems, align on priorities and shape engagement outcomes.
• Building and maintaining trusted relationships with client stakeholders, ensuring high satisfaction and repeat business.

• Contributing to the Trust in AI offering, including methodologies, accelerators, reusable assets and thought leadership.
• Leading and coaching consultants, providing direction and quality assurance over team performance and deliverables.
