About the Role

~2 min read

As Senior Director of Generative & Agentic AI, you will play a central role in Babel Street’s transformation into an AI-native risk intelligence organization. You will architect, operationalize, and scale generative and agentic AI capabilities across the Babel Street platform, ensuring they are mission-ready, safe, economically efficient, and deeply integrated with their products and data ecosystem. 

You will work closely with the President & Chief AI Officer, as well as Product and Engineering leadership to execute the company’s AI strategy—balancing innovation with rigor, speed with safety, and capability with cost discipline. This role requires strong technical depth, hands-on experience, architectural judgment, and the ability to translate rapidly evolving AI technologies into reliable, customer-facing intelligence capabilities. You will lead teams building multilingual and multi-modal LLM and SLM pipelines, retrieval, agent-driven workflow systems, and graph-integrated reasoning capabilities that directly support intelligence applications—powering investigative, analytical, and operational workflows across Babel Street’s product suite. 

You will focus on capabilities that automate analysis, reduce cognitive load, and power Babel Street’s future Knowledge Graph. A defining aspect of this role is ensuring all AI capabilities are delivered with strong guardrails, low hallucination rates, transparent behavior, and a relentless focus on winning on AI economics. 

This is a hybrid role to be based out of either their Reston, VA or Somerville MA office.

Babel Street is the trusted technology partner for the world’s most advanced identity intelligence and risk operations. They deliver advanced AI and data analytics solutions providing unmatched, analysis-ready data regardless of language, proactive risk identification, 360-degree insights, high-speed automation, and seamless integration into existing systems. Babel Street empowers government and commercial organizations to transform high-stakes identity and risk operations into a strategic advantage.  The actionable insights we deliver safeguard lives and protect critical assets around the world.  Babel Street is headquartered in Reston, Virginia, with regional offices in Boston, MA and Cleveland, OH, and international offices in Australia, Canada, Israel, Japan, and the U.K.

This role spans three integrated domains:
