About the role
Policy authored once and enforced everywhere: the control plane for enterprise AI at GitHub, covering models, agents, tools, MCP, permissions, spend, plugins and client settings. That last phrase is the whole problem statement, and almost nobody has solved it.
The posting calls this highly strategic and high ambiguity, which is accurate. Influence spans Copilot, platform infrastructure, clients, identity, billing and enterprise products, meaning most of the work is deciding what the primitives should be before anyone can build on them.
US remote, at GitHub's widest principal band. Kubernetes, Azure, agents and MCP.
