Responsibilities
- Identify critical operational challenges, define the underlying problems, and design AI-driven solutions that can be prototyped and validated against real-world data.
- Build working prototypes using AI tools and collaborate closely with engineering teams to transform successful concepts into reliable, scalable production systems.
- Define measurable metrics for complex operational problems and use data to validate solutions, assess outcomes, and continuously improve product decisions.
- Lead the development of a sophisticated decision engine designed to replace vendor reporting with an internally owned platform tailored to varied user requirements.
- Drive product strategy and judgment for closed-loop attribution systems that connect client actions with measurable revenue outcomes.
- Design platform capabilities that can support multiple business units and industries while balancing shared infrastructure with configurable experiences.

- Experience designing platform products that serve diverse user needs across multiple industries, client types, or business units while balancing common components with configurable functionality.
- Demonstrated ability to translate complex operational challenges into measurable problems and validate proposed solutions using data.
- Experience with decision engines, reporting platforms, closed-loop attribution systems, or similar products is strongly preferred.
- Excellent written communication skills, with the ability to explain complex decisions and trade-offs clearly and concisely through short-form documentation.
