Full Job Description
Summary

As an AI Governance Analyst at Simplot, you will help turn Simplot's AI governance principles into practical standards, processes, and decisions that enable the business to use AI that is safe, reliable, and valuable.

This role combines curiosity about emerging technologies with a highly structured, pragmatic approach to governance. Working across legal, information security, procurement, technology, and business teams, you will assess risk, develop end-user guidance, and help shape Simplot's governance approach for commercial, IT-built, and self-service AI solutions.

Success in this role requires the ability to define practical guardrails for AI technologies that often lack clear precedents, translating complex technical and regulatory considerations into actionable guidance for business stakeholders.

Key Responsibilities

Assess AI Solutions
  • Apply a consistent review methodology to AI solutions to assess compliance with Simplot's responsible AI principles and regulatory requirements.
  • Investigate how AI solutions are implemented - including data flows, model usage, integrations, permissions, and user interactions - and assess risk based on that implementation.
  • Synthesize and communicate potential AI solution impacts related to security, privacy, intellectual property, compliance, and data protection.
  • Monitor AI solution usage, adoption patterns, and governance metrics across the enterprise.
  • Identify patterns and lessons learned across AI solution reviews and recommend improvements to governance processes and controls.


Monitor AI Regulations and Technology Trends
  • Identify emerging AI risks, laws, regulations, standards, and industry best practices, and recommend appropriate controls and mitigation strategies for Simplot.
  • Maintain awareness of new AI technologies, vendors, and capabilities entering the market, and assess their impact on Simplot's AI use cases.


Support Responsible Adoption of AI
  • Develop practical guidance and educational materials to help business users responsibly adopt AI technologies.
  • Assist business partners in configuring approved low-code or no-code AI solutions for common use cases (e.g., Microsoft Copilot agents).
  • Share training and awareness activities related to AI governance, responsible AI, and approved AI technologies.
  • Provide AI governance consultation to project teams and business stakeholders.


Relevant Experience

  • 3-8 years of experience in a related function, such as:
    • Privacy, compliance, or legal/paralegal
    • Information security, IT auditing, or technology risk management
    • Vendor risk management, procurement, or third-party assessments with a technology focus
    • Business analysis, process improvement, or policy development with a technology focus
  • Highly structured with adaptability to support rapidly evolving AI technologies and governance challenges.
  • Demonstrated ability to research unfamiliar technologies, synthesize complex information from technical and regulatory sources, and translate findings into practical recommendations.
  • Skilled at facilitation and building consensus among diverse groups of stakeholders.
