Role:
We are seeking a visionary, hands-on AI CoE Lead to drive the architecture, engineering, and deployment of our AI-native solutions across Pharma & Life Sciences, HiTech, and BFS. Partnering closely with the CTO and Head of Sales, you will champion a spec-driven development approach, leveraging AI to build rapid prototypes and create highly differentiated functional/technical specifications. You will lead an elite team of Forward Deployed Engineers (FDEs) who embed directly within client workflows to translate these specs and prototypes into production-grade software.
Position Type: Full-Time Leadership (Director Level)
Location: Remote; ~30% Travel required (Domestic & International)
Qualifications & Experience
- Spec-Driven & Rapid Prototyping Mastery: Demonstrated track record of using spec-driven development methodologies and leveraging AI tools (LLM coders, agentic workflows) to rapidly prototype, spec out, and validate complex enterprise software.
- Multi-Domain Context: Proven track record of deploying AI/ML solutions in enterprise settings, with deep familiarity in at least one core vertical (Pharma, HiTech, or BFS) and rapid learning agility across others.
- Technical Leadership: 2+ years in AI/ML or enterprise software, with proven experience client-facing engagements from presales to implementation.
- Deep AI/ML Expertise: Working knowledge of AI architecture, LLMs, RAG, NLP, and modern MLOps/data infrastructure.
- Executive Communication: Exceptional ability to translate complex technical specs and prototypes for C-suite buyers and functional business leaders.
Core Mindset
- Agile Builder: Combines high engineering standards with a bias for action, leveraging modern AI to accelerate prototyping and delivery.
- Insanely Curious: Continuously tests, learns, and integrates emerging AI frameworks and development paradigms into real-world applications.
- Cross-Functional Partner: Bridges the gap effortlessly between commercial strategy, core engineering, and end-user needs.
Key Responsibilities:
- Spec-Driven Development & AI Prototyping: Pioneering a spec-driven engineering framework; leveraging AI coding tools and automation to build rapid, high-fidelity prototypes. Translate complex domain workflows into highly differentiated functional/technical specifications that power client demos, product buildouts, and seamless downstream implementations.
- AI Architecture & Industry Solutions: Drive the technical vision and modular expansion of our AI platform across Pharma (clinical/R&D), HiTech (engineering workflows), and BFS (risk/operations).
- Lead Forward Deployed Engineers: Hire, mentor, and scale a team of FDEs who sit directly with client teams, work inside their data environments, and ship production-ready tools into active workflows based on robust specs.
- Sales & Demo Partnership: Collaborate with the Head of Sales and CTO on high-stakes enterprise pitches, delivering custom technical architectures, functional specs, and live prototype demos tailored to client needs.
- Drive Workflow Adoption: Ensure models achieve sustained, unprompted daily usage by client teams. Translate client feedback directly back into core specs and product requirements.
- Standardize Infrastructure: Establish best practices for MLOps, model evaluations, data governance, and shared pipelines ("build the plumbing once") to accelerate client go-lives from specs to deployment in weeks.
- Functional Thought Leadership: Act as the primary Functional authority on specific areas to drive AI adoption, building deep credibility with client CxOs, R&D leaders, and business heads.
What We Offer
- Competitive executive salary, equity options, and performance incentives tied to product milestones.
- Complete ownership of AI product strategy, spec-driven engineering, team scaling, and platform execution.
