What you'll build

On the technology side, you'll guide teams building scalable services, data pipelines, ML-enabled applications, and LLM-based features, ensuring sound engineering around architecture, quality, observability, security, and operational readiness. You’ll help the team make good decisions about model integration, experimentation, evaluation, deployment, monitoring, and governance, while balancing innovation with business value, cost, and time to market. Your impact will be measured not just by delivery, but by the strength of the team, the quality of execution, and the adoption of AI capabilities that solve real customer problems.

  • You have a strong understanding of Agile methodologies, backlog management, prioritization, stakeholder communication, and escalation handling

  • You bring practical knowledge of cloud platforms, DevOps, CI/CD, observability, security, and the operational needs of production AI systems

  • You are able to evaluate technical trade-offs, including build vs. buy, delivery speed vs. technical debt, and experimentation vs. reliability

  • You demonstrate strong people leadership skills, including hiring, coaching, performance management, and building high-performing teams

  • You are confident working with senior stakeholders to translate business goals into execution plans, budgets, staffing decisions, and measurable outcomes

  • You apply sound judgment around responsible AI, data governance, compliance, and quality standards in enterprise environments

  • You bring 8-10( ) years of experience in software engineering, architecture, or a related field, with a strong track record of designing and delivering complex systems

  • You are a strong people leader who is passionate about developing talent and building inclusive, high-performing teams

  • You are proactive, organized, and outcomes-driven, with a strong sense of ownership and accountability

  • You are a collaborative leader who builds strong partnerships across product, architecture, and business teams

  • You have a commitment to responsible AI principles, including ethics, transparency, and governance
