What you'll be doing - Own the end-to-end architecture for the AI Native Intelligence platform on AWS — ingestion, enrichment, the semantic/business ontology layer, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), knowledge graphs, and agentic orchestration (Amazon Bedrock, Bedrock AgentCore, Amazon Neptune, OpenSearch Serverless, AWS Glue, Amazon Transcribe/Comprehend, and related services). - Translate diverse enterprise datasets — call center transcripts and audio, policy administration, claims, underwriting — into a unified, governed data and semantic foundation that supports natural-language querying and analytics.
- Design and evolve the business ontology, knowledge graph, and KPI/metrics glossary that ground the platform's AI in Lincoln's own business definitions, so answers are accurate and consistent with how the business already measures itself. - Lead build-vs-buy decisions across the AI/ML and data stack, and stay ahead of a fast-moving AWS AI landscape — model updates, agent frameworks, vector and graph databases, evaluation tooling. - Build, mentor, and scale a team of engineers, data scientists, and architects; set technical standards, run design/architecture reviews, and unblock hard technical problems.
- 12+ years of experience in data engineering, ML/AI engineering, or applied data science, including 5+ years in a technical leadership role (Director, Senior Manager, or Principal Architect) building production data or AI platforms. - Deep, hands-on experience with AWS data and AI services: S3, Glue, Lambda, Step Functions, Amazon Bedrock (or an equivalent enterprise LLM platform), OpenSearch or another vector database, and a graph database such as Amazon Neptune. - Proven experience building or leading RAG, agentic AI, or conversational AI systems in production — not just proofs of concept.

New Data Leadership postings at the employers we follow are about the same over the last 6 weeks compared with the 6 before.
Each bar is one week of new postings. The darkest bars are the last 6 weeks.
Counted from the hiring pages we’ve followed for at least five weeks, so employers we add don’t look like growth. Updated weekly.
We file this job under Data Leadership, by the work the posting describes.
Data leaders run data teams or design how a company's data fits together. Managers hire, set priorities and answer for whether the data work pays off; architects choose the systems and the shape of the data.
Expect years of hands-on data work, experience leading people or projects, and the ability to explain tradeoffs to executives.
Unlike a senior engineer or analyst, most of a data leader's week goes to people, planning and decisions rather than building.
The government has no code for data leaders, so these figures are for the closest group, computer and information systems managers, which includes data processing and data operations managers.

Requisition #: 76793
Lincoln Financial Group is building an AI Native Intelligence platform that turns enterprise data — starting with call center audio and transcripts, and expanding to claims, policy, and underwriting data — into a conversational, agentic layer the business can query directly. Instead of static reports, the platform is designed to let business users ask natural-language questions and get grounded, cited answers, backed by a real semantic understanding of Lincoln's data.
We're looking for a Senior Director to own the architecture and technical delivery of this platform end to end. This is a hands-on, builder-leader role: someone who sets the technical vision and roadmap, but who is equally comfortable reviewing a Bedrock agent's tool-calling logic, debugging a Step Functions pipeline, or sketching a knowledge graph schema on a whiteboard. You'll build and lead the team that takes this from pilot to enterprise scale.
