Vice President, AI & Technology
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose. Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading (the page already shows it) and do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it. Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. IMPORTANT: include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g. "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD") and never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. Output ONLY the HTML fragment — no /, no markdown code fences.
Thus we need to decide which sections to include. The posting includes: About Solen Software Group (company description). About The Role (role overview). Key Responsibilities (with subcategories). What Success Looks Like (outcomes). Solen-isms (How We Operate) (culture). Possibly also "Recruitment Disclaimer" but that's boilerplate (legal) and should be removed. Also "Employment Type: Full-time" and Location: US. Those are minor metadata; we can fold into a short
maybe after the role overview. The instruction: do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it. So we can include a paragraph with location and employment type.
We need to use
for section headings. So we will have headings like:
About Solen Software Group
...
About the Role
...
Responsibilities
Then we need to list duties. The responsibilities are grouped under subheadings. We could either make a with each responsibility as - . But we also have subcategories; we could embed subheadings inside
- maybe? But instructions: Use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we can produce a list where each item is a duty. Could also include sub-bullets? Not required. Simpler: produce a flat list of responsibilities, each as
- . However we need to preserve all substantive information; we can include the subheadings as part of the
- text.
Thus:
Responsibilities
- AI Strategy & Transformation: Serve as the portfolio's subject matter expert on AI, continuously evaluating emerging technologies, models, frameworks, and market trends. Partner with the Portfolio Leader to define and execute the portfolio-wide AI strategy. Lead the transformation of engineering organizations into AI-native teams by redesigning organizational structures, roles, workflows, and delivery models. Establish an AI-first Software Development Lifecycle (SDLC), embedding AI throughout planning, development, testing, documentation, deployment, and support. Evaluate and implement AI tooling that improves engineering productivity, software quality, customer experience, and operational efficiency. Drive AI adoption across engineering, product, customer support, sales, and internal operations where appropriate.
- Technology Leadership: Establish portfolio-wide standards for architecture, security, infrastructure, engineering quality, and technology governance. Guide technical roadmaps across portfolio companies to ensure scalability, modernization, and long-term maintainability. Partner with executive leadership to prioritize technology investments that create measurable customer and enterprise value. Standardize engineering metrics, tooling, and best practices while allowing flexibility for individual business needs.
- Engineering & Talent Leadership: Lead engineering organizational strategy across the portfolio. Recruit, develop, coach, and retain exceptional technical talent and leaders. Make organizational design, hiring, succession planning, and performance management decisions across engineering organizations. Foster a culture of innovation, accountability, speed, and continuous improvement.
- AI Venture Creation: Identify opportunities to build standalone AI-native products and companies that leverage the portfolio's expertise and distribution channels. Partner with the Portfolio Leader to evaluate market opportunities, product strategy, commercialization plans, and investment priorities. Lead technical execution from concept through launch for new AI ventures. Create reusable AI capabilities that can be deployed across multiple portfolio companies while also serving external markets.
- Mergers & Acquisitions: Lead technical due diligence for prospective acquisitions. Assess engineering organizations, architecture, security posture, technical debt, scalability, and AI readiness. Develop technology integration strategies for newly acquired businesses. Accelerate post-acquisition modernization and alignment with portfolio technology standards.
Then "What Success Looks Like" could be a section maybe "Success Metrics" or "What Success Looks Like". Since it's substantive, we can include as a section with heading What Success Looks Like
and then a or
. It's a list of bullet-like statements. We'll make a .
Similarly "Solen-isms (How We Operate)" is a list of cultural principles. We'll make a section Solen-isms (How We Operate)
with a .
We also need to include location and employment type. Could add a short paragraph after About the Role or at top. Let's add a Location: US. Employment Type: Full-time.
We must not include boilerplate like Recruitment Disclaimer.
Now check for any duplicated lines: The posting includes "About Solen Software Group" paragraph repeated? It appears once. Good.
Now ensure we don't create sections like Pay, Schedule, Benefits unless present. Not present.
Now ensure we don't include filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present.

Solen-isms (How We Operate)
- Ownership Mindset: We own the mission. We don't wait to be told. We lead, fix, and build as if it were ours. When problems arise, we run toward them, not away.
- Benchmark to Best: We seek out excellence. We measure ourselves against the best and adapt quickly, always looking for the edge that moves us forward.
- Openly Self-Critical: Leaders go first: they surface their misses early, ask for direct feedback, and turn “game film” into better decisions and better systems.
- Disagree & Commit: Leaders disagree openly and constructively, regardless of title or tenure, because truth is how we avoid bureaucracy and benchmark to best.
- Figureitoutiveness: Embracing challenges, fostering growth, and taking initiative, leaders thrive on hard work and high failure tolerance.
- Mutual Elevation: Committed to growth, elevating teams, developing future leaders, and removing barriers to mastery and joy.
- Learn-it-alls: Learn-it-alls, not know-it-alls, embracing failure as part of growth and progress.
- Pioneering: Pioneering driven by opportunity, using first principles thinking and unbound by tradition
