Job description

Job Description – Head of AI Application & Product Development

At Infotech.Works, we move fast—from idea to real product in weeks, not months, with AI capabilities. We are looking for a technology leader who can sell the solution, architect the solution, build the solution, and successfully deliver the solution.

Experience

12+ years of total professional experience – Mandatory

The candidate must have substantial hands-on experience across AI, application/product development, presales, and project management & delivery. Experience in only one or two of these areas should not be considered sufficient.

The person should be able to understand a client's business problem, convert it into an AI/application solution, participate in presales and proposals, define the technical approach, lead development teams, manage delivery, and ensure successful production deployment.

This is a hands-on leadership role, not purely a managerial position.

Project Management & Delivery: 3+ years
