At Freddie Mac, our mission of Making Home Possible is what motivates us, and it’s at the core of everything we do. Since our charter in 1970, we have made home possible for more than 90 million families across the country. Join an organization where your work contributes to a greater purpose.

Position Overview:

Freddie Mac is seeking a Sr. Director, Generative AI Development to lead a team of engineers building and operating internal Generative AI capabilities, including the company’s internal chatbot and additional Gen AI-enabled products. This leader will drive delivery excellence, engineering rigor, and secure-by-design implementation across the full software lifecycle—partnering closely with Product, Architecture, Cybersecurity, Data, Model Risk, Legal/Compliance, and business stakeholders.

Your Impact:

• Lead, coach, and grow a high-performing GenAI engineering team; set clear expectations, career paths, and performance standards.

• Own delivery for internal AI chatbot and GenAI services: roadmap execution, sprint planning, dependency management, and release readiness.

• Establish engineering standards for GenAI applications: prompt/service design patterns, evaluation frameworks, observability, and incident response.

• Drive architecture and implementation for LLM-enabled systems (e.g., RAG, tool/function calling, agentic workflows) aligned to enterprise standards.

• Ensure security, privacy, and compliance requirements are built-in (e.g., data handling, access controls, auditability, retention).

• Partner with Model Risk Management and governance stakeholders to support appropriate documentation, testing, and controls for GenAI solutions.

• Implement and monitor quality metrics (latency, cost per interaction, groundedness, hallucination rate, user satisfaction) and continuously improve.

• Manage vendor/platform dependencies (LLM providers, orchestration frameworks, vector stores) and guide build-vs-buy decisions.

• Communicate status, risks, and tradeoffs to senior technology and business leaders; translate business needs into engineering plans.

Qualifications:

• 12+ years of software engineering experience, including 5+ years leading engineering teams/managers.

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or related field (or equivalent experience).

• Proven experience delivering production-grade AI/ML or GenAI-enabled applications at enterprise scale.

• Strong knowledge of modern cloud-native engineering (APIs, microservices, containers, CI/CD, IaC).

• Recent hands-on coding experience.

• Experience with secure software development practices and enterprise risk/compliance expectations.

• Strong stakeholder management skills; ability to influence across product, security, and governance functions.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Experience implementing RAG with vector databases and enterprise search.

• Familiarity with LLM evaluation methods and automated testing approaches for GenAI.

• Experience with MLOps/LLMOps, model monitoring, and cost optimization.

• Background in regulated industries (financial services, mortgage, insurance) and related control environments.

Keys to Success in this Role:

• Stable, measurable internal AI chatbot platform with strong adoption and clear quality/cost metrics.

• Repeatable engineering patterns for GenAI features (RAG, tools, evaluation, guardrails) used across projects.

• Improved delivery predictability and engineering quality (test coverage, incident reduction, faster release cycles).

• Strong partnership model with Cybersecurity, Architecture, and Model Risk to accelerate safe delivery.
