• Partner with IT and AI engineering teams to establish secure cloud infrastructure, data pipelines, governance frameworks, and compliant AI solutions.
• Establish benchmarks and performance metrics to measure AI impact on schedule alignment, cost savings, safety outcomes, productivity, and operational efficiency.
• Research, evaluate, and implement emerging AI technologies while providing technical leadership on architecture, design, and complex construction-focused AI solutions.
• Build, mentor, and lead a high-performing team of product managers and AI developers, fostering innovation, accountability, and execution excellence.
• Drive multi-functional collaboration, organizational change management, and AI literacy to ensure alignment, user adoption, and successful delivery of technology-based business outcomes.

Minimum Qualifications

• 10-15 years of experience in construction, engineering, proptech, or heavy industrial sectors, with a deep understanding of the construction lifecycle, BIM/VDC workflows, and project scheduling tools.
• Bachelor / Master Degree in Computer Science, AI, civil Engineering or Construction Management.
• Exceptional communication skills, with a track record of navigating matrixed corporate environments and building alignment across field operations and corporate IT.
• Strong familiarity with cloud infrastructure (AWS, Azure, or GCP), data pipeline architecture, and edge AI/IoT deployment constraints on active job sites.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to remain flexible in response to changing project and business needs.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience in product management, technology leadership, or engineering roles, with experience launching AI/ML, computer vision, or advanced analytics products, is strongly preferred.
• Proven track record of successfully leading AI initiatives within the construction industry.
• Professional certifications in Autodesk, Lean Construction or buildingSMART Professional Certification are highly desirable.
