Product Director, AI Products
About The Position
As the Product Director of AI Products, you will run the productization process across our portfolio, working side-by-side with our Tech Director and AI Engineers on our first product bets and those that follow. You will join AI Products (AIP), the engineering-led, small-by-design team building R/GA's next chapter by shifting our business from service-as-labor to service-as-software. This is a true product role inside a productization studio where you will own product strategy, scoping, validation, and the discipline of shipping reusable assets that travel across clients. You will ensure every bet ships as a real product with a clear thesis, an identified buyer, a sales-ready demo, and the rhythm to ship, sell, or sunset on time.
Requirements
- 7+ years of product management experience, with 3+ years focused on AI-powered or technically complex products.
- Strong technical fluency, including the ability to read code, push back on architecture, and write a credible PRD for an AI system.
- Fluency in agent-driven workflows with the ability to direct AI agents to build prototypes and working artifacts independently.
- Demonstrated zero-to-one experience, ideally inside an agency, studio, consultancy, or startup.
- Excellent written communication skills across PRDs, decks, sales artifacts, and executive updates that make complex products easy to understand and easy to sell.
- The comfort and confidence to present to senior clients and internal stakeholders, including the C-suite.
Nice To Haves
- Prior product work on generative interfaces, agent platforms, brand systems, or AI tooling.
- Experience packaging consulting or services work into repeatable products.
- Background working alongside designers and creative teams in agency environments.
- Published thinking on AI product management, evaluation, or productization.
Responsibilities
- Own the rhythm by which bets move from concept to shippable product, defining the demo, the deck, and the codebase scope for each.
- Define product strategy theses, target buyers, IP wedges, and ship-or-sunset criteria.
- Synthesize the narrative and lead the creation of product marketing assets, ranging from video content to PR and beyond.
- Run customer discovery with R/GA Client Leads, prospects, and pitch teams to validate assumptions early and kill bets that do not hold up.
- Prototype, validate, and iterate using AI agents to build working artifacts yourself rather than waiting on engineering for every check.
- Partner with brand, marketing, PR, new business, and regional studios via short, scoped consulting moments rather than non-billable resourcing commitments.
- Build the marketing decks, demo scripts, and pitch artifacts that empower any Client Lead to sell our products without hand-holding.
- Define and report on success metrics, building the dashboard that the team and the Global Leadership Team live by to track pitch-to-win lift, margin uplift, engagement extension, software revenue, and industry signal.
- Maintain a pipeline of productization candidates harvested from across R/GA to steward the backlog.
Benefits
- Hybrid work model, with regular in-person collaboration, team / client workshops.
