Role

We are seeking a seasoned, strategic, and technically adept Product Owner to shape and drive our AI/ML innovation roadmap, with a dedicated focus on building state-of-the-art AI Agentic systems. In this role, you will bridge the gap between cutting-edge AI research and scalable enterprise execution. You will translate frontier AI concepts - such as Large Language Models (LLMs), Agent Development Frameworks (ADK), Claude Skills, Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), and Knowledge Graphs - into structured, high-impact product requirements. Working within a SAFe Agile framework, you will collaborate with research scientists, data engineers, cloud architects, and executive stakeholders to advance concepts from initial Proof of Concept (POC) to production-grade deployment on cloud-native infrastructure.

Responsibilities

• Define, articulate, and execute the product vision and roadmap for next-generation AI/ML initiatives, prioritizing high-leverage agentic architectures and autonomous workflows.
• Manage and prioritize the innovation and research backlog, balancing experimental risk, technical viability, and tangible business impact.
• Continuously evaluate breakthroughs across the generative AI ecosystem to identify opportunities for integration into the core product suite.
• Deconstruct complex AI/ML paradigms - including agent tool-use, RAG pipelines, Knowledge Graph embeddings, and multi-agent coordination - into clear user stories, acceptance criteria, and technical specifications.
• Partner closely with system architects and software engineers to ensure experimental architectures are built for scalability, resilience, and security within Google Cloud Platform (GCP) and Kubernetes (GKE).
• Support modern deployment patterns and iterative testing loops by leveraging automated CI/CD practices with GitHub Actions.
• Shepherd innovation initiatives across the entire lifecycle: from hypothesis formation, exploratory research, and POC validation through to hardening, production rollout, and adoption.
• Establish evaluation frameworks, benchmarks, and key performance indicators (KPIs) to measure model reliability, agent task completion, cost efficiency, and end-user impact.
• Gather quantitative feedback and qualitative operational insights to iterate on prototypes or graduate successful experiments into core product offerings.
• Act as the central connective tissue between AI researchers, core engineering, operations, and commercial leaders within a Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe).
• Map and navigate complex application landscapes, user workflows, data dependencies, and cross-team ownership structures to eliminate delivery roadblocks.

Skills Required

• 10-12 years of overall professional experience, with substantial tenure as a Product Owner, Technical Product Manager, or Product Lead guiding advanced technical or data-centric products.
• Demonstrated conceptual and practical mastery of modern AI ecosystems, including Generative AI, LLMs, AI Agentic workflows, Agent Development Kits (ADKs), Claude Skills, RAG pipelines, vector search, and Knowledge Graph integration.
• Hands-on experience operating within Scaled Agile (SAFe) environments, running backlog grooming, sprint planning, PI planning, and dependency management for cross-functional teams.
• Solid understanding of cloud-native infrastructure, specifically Google Cloud Platform (GCP) and container orchestration with Kubernetes, along with familiarity with GitHub Actions for CI/CD automation.
• Ability to actively engage in architectural discussions regarding data pipelines, API contracts, latency budgets, agent orchestrators, and model inference scaling.
• Proven track record of translating high-level executive strategy and complex data science research into actionable epics, features, and stories for cross-functional execution.

What is in it for you

• Be part of the fastest-growing AI-first digital transformation and engineering company in the world.
• Be a part of an energetic team of highly dynamic and talented individuals.
• Exposure to working with fortune 500 companies and innovative market disruptors.
• Exposure to the latest technologies related to artificial intelligence and machine learning, data and cloud.
• If you like wild growth and working with happy, enthusiastic over-achievers, you’ll enjoy your career with us!
