About the team
The Technology Regulatory and Market Compliance (TRMC) organization is a business enabler and industry leader of technology and security risk management practices, supported by a multi-disciplinary team of top security, technology, and risk professionals. The team is responsible for working with, and demonstrating to, our stakeholders (e.g., regulators, customers, Mastercard businesses) how Mastercard complies with our promises, commitments, and obligations and also as a member of the front-line risk organization. We do this by translating regulatory and customer requirements into actionable information and demonstrating how Mastercard standards/controls meet and/or exceed these expectations.
As an entry-level AI Engineer for Technology Regulatory Resilience, you will help design, build, and improve AI-enabled solutions that change how Mastercard meets and demonstrates compliance with global technology and resilience regulations. Working alongside experienced engineers and regulatory subject matter experts, you will apply generative AI, machine learning, and automation to connect regulatory obligations to controls, products, and evidence. The ideal candidate is a recent graduate who is passionate about AI, eager to learn about risk & controls, and excited to turn classroom and project experience into real-world, production-ready solutions. This is an excellent launchpad for an early-career technologist. You will gain hands-on experience across the full AI solution lifecycle, from prototyping and testing to deployment and continuous improvement, while receiving mentorship, structured learning, and exposure to high-visibility work at the intersection of artificial intelligence, regulatory technology, and operational excellence.
