Responsibilities
- Assume end-to-end ownership of AI engineering projects across the portfolio — from requirements definition through architecture, development oversight, and production deployment
- Design GCP infrastructure across all environments, in partnership with engineering: Cloud Run, IAM, VPC network isolation, CI/CD pipelines, secrets management, observability, and security controls
- Translate business requirements into technically precise specifications — and proactively challenge scope or approach when a stronger path exists
- Lead company-wide AI infrastructure rollout and upskilling initiatives, including training programs, office hours, super-user community development, and AI governance scaffolding
- Develop PRDs, architecture documents, and project scopes that enable contractors and engineering partners to execute independently
- Forecast build timelines and resource requirements across a portfolio of concurrent initiatives
- Direct and quality-review the output of external engineering contractors
- Identify and advance system-level improvements proactively — with a recommendation and a plan, not merely an observation
- Build documentation and operational foundations designed to scale beyond any individual project
Skills
- 8+ years of experience spanning software engineering, cloud infrastructure, and technical program or product management
- Active, daily use of LLM-based AI tools (Claude, Gemini, or equivalent) as a core part of your professional workflow — not familiarity, fluency
- Demonstrated ability to architect and own GCP infrastructure end-to-end, without external direction
- Proven capacity to move from an ambiguous problem statement to a structured technical plan independently
- Strong ability to engage cross-functional business stakeholders, identify the root of what they actually need, and translate that into technically sound specifications
- Experience writing PRDs, architecture documents, and detailed project scopes
- Bachelor's degree required; Master's degree strongly preferred
- Familiarity with mobile development constraints and cross-platform frameworks
- Experience with Salesforce integrations or CRM-adjacent technical work
- Experience directing or managing external engineering contractors or vendors
