When to hire a Fractional AI Policy Analyst
Bring in an AI Policy Analyst when AI is already in your product or operations and nobody owns the rules for how it is built, tested, and disclosed.
Enterprise deals stall on AI questionnaires
Procurement teams are sending AI risk and data-use questionnaires, and your answers are pieced together by engineers and sales in a shared doc.
No inventory of where models are used
You cannot say which features use which models, what training data fed them, or who approved them, so risk classification under the EU AI Act is guesswork.
Bias and fairness testing is ad hoc
Some teams run fairness metrics on model outputs and others do not, and there is no documented threshold for what blocks a release.
State and federal rules keep shifting
Colorado, New York City, and federal agency guidance each add obligations, and no one is tracking which apply to your hiring, lending, or customer-facing models.
Employees use generative AI with no guardrails
Staff paste customer data into third-party chat tools because there is no acceptable-use policy or approved vendor list.
Legal and engineering talk past each other
Counsel flags risk in general terms while engineers need concrete controls, and nobody translates between the two.
The benefits of hiring a Fractional AI Policy Analyst
A fractional AI Policy Analyst gives you someone who reads the regulation, inspects your model and data pipelines, and writes the controls in one engagement, without adding a full-time governance headcount.
Staff your AI governance program part-time
Get senior policy and risk expertise on your model inventory, impact assessments, and acceptable-use rules without carrying a full-time salary and benefits for a role you may only need part of the week.
Meet EU AI Act deadlines with policy in place
We match you in about 3 days, so drafting risk classifications, model cards, and vendor AI questionnaires starts this month instead of after a long search.
Draft policy with someone who has shipped it
Every analyst is pre-screened by veteran executive recruiters for real governance work: bias testing frameworks, data lineage reviews, and policies that passed customer and regulator scrutiny.
