What you’ll bring

• Deep product leadership experience building and scaling complex enterprise platforms, across AI/ML, agentic systems, search, personalization, data, or developer ecosystems.
• Proven ability to take ambiguous, enterprise-scale problems and turn them into clear product strategy, platform model, and executable roadmaps.
• Strong technical fluency in modern AI products, including agent orchestration, retrieval, evaluation, context, and model-driven experiences.
• Experience driving platform adoption across multiple product, engineering, and business teams.
• Strong judgment across customer experience, platform reuse, quality, governance, risk, and business value.
