FOUNDER'S AI TECH PERSONAL ASSISTANT
📍 On-site | Travel Required
ABOUT THE ROLE
We're looking for a Founder's AI Tech Personal Assistant who thrives at the intersection of project leadership, applied AI, systems thinking, and hands-on technical execution. This is far more than a coordination role — you'll navigate complex technical environments, work closely with engineers and stakeholders, and translate ambitious ideas into practical, well-scoped, high-impact AI solutions.
You'll lead cross-functional AI initiatives from concept through delivery, bringing structure to ambiguity while still encouraging experimentation and innovation. You should be equally comfortable discussing product goals with stakeholders, system architecture with engineers, delivery risks with leadership, and implementation details when needed. Success here means balancing strategic thinking, requirement definition, technical depth, and team leadership — with the adaptability and credibility to shape not just what gets built, but how the team approaches AI.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
• Lead end-to-end AI and software projects from discovery to rollout, ensuring alignment on timelines, priorities, resources, and outcomes
• Be present and available on-site with the Founder on a day-to-day basis, traveling as needed to support project sites, client meetings, vendor engagements, and business operations
• Identify practical opportunities to apply AI across workflows, products, operations, and customer-facing experiences
• Collaborate closely with engineers and AI teams on LLMs, retrieval systems, agentic workflows, real-time applications, and infrastructure
• Lead, mentor, and support teams by removing blockers, delegating effectively, and driving accountability with trust
• Contribute to solution architecture and system planning with a focus on scalability, reliability, security, cost, and maintainability
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
• Lead multiple AI and technical delivery tracks simultaneously
• Define project scope, milestones, ownership, dependencies, risks, and success metrics
• Gather business needs and convert them into detailed functional and technical requirements
• Work with technical teams on AI solution planning, architecture reviews, and implementation strategy
• Support projects involving large language models, retrieval systems, embeddings, agent frameworks, and real-time pipelines
• Coordinate across engineering, product, design, infrastructure, operations, and leadership teams
• Help establish execution frameworks for AI initiatives — workflow design, governance, evaluation, and operational readiness
• Ensure strong documentation, alignment, and communication across the project lifecycle
• Drive team accountability while maintaining a collaborative, high-trust culture
• Anticipate project risks early and proactively develop mitigation plans
• Contribute to process improvements for managing AI-heavy technical programs
• Stay current with emerging AI capabilities, engineering patterns, and implementation best practices
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR
• Strong leadership ability — experience aligning stakeholders, delegating effectively, and driving execution in fast-changing settings
• Willingness and ability to travel frequently and work on-site alongside the Founder, including extended travel based on project demands
• Proven experience leading complex technical projects and managing cross-functional teams in AI, software, or platform environments
• Solid understanding of applied AI — LLMs, RAG, embeddings, MCP, agentic workflows, and real-world production use cases
• Strong ability to evaluate emerging AI trends and turn them into practical, scalable, business-focused solutions
• Strong coding proficiency in Python, with the ability to contribute to technical discussions and implementation decisions
• Deep understanding of system design, distributed systems, scalability, reliability, and performance in production environments
• Working knowledge of networking, Linux, load balancing, DNS, and cloud infrastructure — especially AWS (ECS, EKS, S3, IAM)
• Excellent requirement-gathering and problem-framing skills, turning ideas into actionable plans, features, and deliverables
• Strong communication skills, able to bridge technical teams and business stakeholders effectively
• Mature decision-making, prioritization, and stakeholder management skills, especially in ambiguous, high-ownership environments
NICE TO HAVE
• Experience delivering production AI systems with measurable business impact
• Exposure to real-time applications — streaming systems, interactive AI experiences, low-latency services, or event-driven architectures
• Familiarity with evaluation frameworks for LLM applications
• Experience managing teams that include AI engineers, backend engineers, DevOps engineers, and product stakeholders
• Exposure to security, governance, and compliance considerations for AI systems
