AI Product Lead: Hands-On Discovery & Venture Builder

Praxis, Inc.; Durham (NC); On-site; USD 90,000 - 150,000; Full time

Job summary

Praxis, Inc. is seeking a versatile Builder who pairs strong product thinking with hands-on creation across multiple ventures.

As a core member of our studio, you’ll work with founders and teammates to bring ideas to life using AI-driven product development to deepen human connection, relationships, and community. Your work centers on deciding what to build for whom, leading discovery and validation, prototyping with AI tools, and shipping with our Kathmandu-based AI engineering team.

Qualifications

• Redemptive imagination: you apply your faith to lament what's broken in the world, discern the right solutions, and imagine how to design them, often counter-culturally. You think about theology, culture, and psychology as much as the latest model release
• A track record of running discovery and validation in early-stage settings, with hands-on skill prototyping and shipping using modern AI-driven development tools
• Excellent collaboration across cultures and time zones with founders, studio partners, and our Nepal-based engineers, and a passion for technology that strengthens rather than replaces human connection

Responsibilities

• Run continuous discovery across our ventures: weekly customer conversations, discovery calls with the right people, synthesizing what you hear into hypotheses and test cards, and running fast, inexpensive experiments with AI compressing every step
• Recruit design partners and build in the wild, shaping real products with and alongside the actual people we're building for
• Prototype and ship with AI-driven development tools, working day to day with founders and with our AI engineering team in Kathmandu, Nepal
