Senior AI Risk Analyst (Remote)

Full time, Colombia

The Senior AI Risk Analyst operates within the Information Security function as a core contributor to the enterprise AI GRC Program, responsible for assessing and managing AI, data, privacy, and security risks across the full lifecycle of AI-enabled capabilities. The role applies structured, standards-based risk and impact assessment methodologies aligned to ISO/IEC 42001, the EU AI Act, and NIST AI RMF including evaluation of risks to the organization, individuals, and fundamental rights.

This position requires the ability to classify AI systems by risk tier, determine regulatory obligations, and translate complex requirements into actionable controls and business decisions, while embedding governance into AI use case intake, design, deployment, and monitoring.

The Senior AI Risk Analyst ensures continuous risk evaluation and audit-defensible outcomes, including preparation for AI conformity assessments, maintenance of traceable documentation, and generation of evidence required to demonstrate compliance to governance forums and regulators.

The ideal candidate brings deep expertise in AI-specific risk domains (e.g., bias, explainability, data quality, model behavior) and a governance-first mindset, enabling the delivery of clear, actionable insights that support responsible, secure, and compliant adoption of AI across the enterprise.

As a Senior AI Risk Analyst, you will

Conduct AI, security, privacy, and data risk assessments across the AI lifecycle using structured methodologies (identification, analysis, evaluation, scoring, and treatment)
Perform AI impact assessments, evaluating potential impacts to individuals, safety, and fundamental rights, and support risk classification of AI systems
Identify and assess AI-specific risks (e.g., bias, explainability, data quality, model behavior), including control gaps, residual risk, and treatment options
Apply and evaluate controls aligned to internal policy, ISO/IEC 42001, and regulatory requirements, ensuring risks are effectively mitigated
Embed governance requirements into AI use case intake, design, deployment, and monitoring through partnership with cross-functional stakeholders
Maintain AI system inventory and intake data to support consistent risk assessment and regulatory alignment
Produce and maintain traceable, audit-ready documentation linking risks, controls, decisions, and outcomes
Support AI conformity and regulatory readiness, including preparation of documentation and evidence for internal and external review
Continuously monitor AI systems for changes in risk (e.g., model drift, new data, evolving use), triggering reassessment and control updates
Provide clear, actionable risk insights and recommendations to technical teams, business stakeholders, and governance forums
