Validation and Monitoring
- Oversee local validation testing and analysis, coordinating with faculty validation consultants for domain-specific expertise (e.g., pathology, radiology, data science).
- Work closely with the IT/Infrastructure teams and domain owners for the deployment of monitoring tools.
- Direct the continuous monitoring program: define drift, performance degradation, and bias detection thresholds; establish escalation triggers and review cadences by risk tier (Tier 1: 6-month, Tier 2: 12-month, Tier 3: annual self-assessment).
- Lead incident response and escalation for AI-related adverse events (aiAE), coordinating with Quality & Patient Safety.
