Location and market context

This is a remote AI governance role, so it draws from a national talent pool rather than a single metro. Remote governance and compliance roles reward candidates who can show they work effectively across time zones and distributed legal, security, and product teams. Confirm any residency, travel, or occasional-onsite expectations directly with CVS Health.

About AI governance roles

AI governance sits at the intersection of policy, risk, and engineering. Teams are standing up model inventories, use-case intake and review, risk classification, and control monitoring as regulation and board scrutiny of AI intensify. Roles like this one are typically evaluated against frameworks such as NIST AI RMF, ISO/IEC 42001, the EU AI Act, and internal model-risk and privacy practices.

How to position yourself for this AI governance role

Strong candidates emphasize experience translating policy into operational controls, working across legal, compliance, security, product, and data teams, documenting AI system risks, and supporting governance processes. In your resume and outreach, tie your experience to how CVS Health would apply NIST AI RMF, ISO/IEC 42001, the EU AI Act, and internal model-risk and privacy practices, and lead with concrete outcomes rather than duties.
