AI Technical Lead
About The Position
Our AI Technical Lead is responsible for designing and delivering scalable AI systems that enable intelligent applications across the organization. This role combines hands-on engineering, system architecture, and technical leadership to build production-grade machine learning and generative AI platforms. The Lead works closely with product, data engineering, and infrastructure teams to bring AI capabilities from experimentation into reliable production systems while supporting the organization’s broader AI strategy and innovation initiatives. Location: this position has preference to based in hybrid work location (onsite and WFH). There may be opportunity for fully remote within a mutually acceptable location. #LI-Hybrid Success Looks Like: AI systems move efficiently from experimentation and pilot phases into reliable production environments. Engineering teams operate within clear architectural standards and scalable development practices. AI capabilities deliver measurable business impact. The organization is able to rapidly develop, test, and scale new AI-driven solutions
