About the Role

We're seeking a Senior AI Product Strategist to lead the design and development of enterprise AI products from concept through production deployment.

  • Align product vision with pricing, technical feasibility and content strategy

  • Present AI strategy and product progress to executive leadership, secure buy-in for strategic decisions, and manage stakeholder alignment across competing priorities

  • Influence architectural decisions through product strategy and business impact analysis

  • Establish data collection and analytics frameworks for user interaction patterns, performance monitoring, and continuous improvement feedback loops

  • Ensure product documentation supports scalability, adoption, and cross-functional understanding

  • Collaborate with engineering to ensure cost-effective and scalable AI solutions

  • Work closely with data teams to align product goals with data strategy and insights

  • Coordinate with legal, compliance, and security teams on data privacy protocols, bias testing, fairness evaluation, and regulatory alignment

Requirements

  • Degree in Computer Science, Linguistics, AI/Machine Learning, Engineering, or related field preferred

  • 5+ years leading AI and/or technical product development from concept through production launch. Experience with building both 0 - 1 (from scratch) and continuous improvement /iterative improvement.

  • Familiarity with generative AI, large language models, RAG architecture, vector databases, semantic search, and prompt engineering techniques. Bonus if candidate has python experience and/or has built POCs from the ground up before.

  • Proven ability to lead cross-functional teams in delivering innovative AI-powered products

  • Ability to collaborate effectively with technical teams and understand platform capabilities

  • Demonstrated ability to train and enable cross-functional teams with no prior AI experience, translating complex technical concepts across organizational levels

  • Experience developing AI governance frameworks, risk management documentation, and compliance protocols aligned with industry standards

  • Strong stakeholder management and executive communication skills with track record of securing buy-in through data-driven business cases

  • Proven ability to write comprehensive documentation, strategic roadmaps, and product specifications

  • Strong decision-making skills balancing speed to market, technical feasibility, risk management, and cost optimization

  • Ability to work effectively with diverse teams including engineers, data scientists, content specialists, legal, and business stakeholders with minimal supervision

  • Understanding of AI safety, bias testing, fairness evaluation, data privacy, and security protocols for responsible AI implementation
