We are seeking a Head of AI Engineering to lead the design and development of AI tools and systems across engineering teams. The ideal candidate will optimize and oversee the speed of shipping and quality of products, evaluate and ship new models and agents into production, and partner directly with designers, customer success, product, and growth to effect change across the company.
