Job Description

About the company

Our client is an artificial intelligence company.

The role

Raydar is recruiting for this role on behalf of our client. Own a technical operations and engineering role that takes early prototypes to dependable production systems. The position combines hands-on building, such as queries, scripts and dashboards, with planning, cross-team coordination and performance measurement. The right candidate brings both technical depth and operational experience and is comfortable running complex work.

What you'll do

  • Set direction and plan the roadmap for an assigned area of an internal production system, from early prototypes through to scaled operation.
  • Build early versions of tools and workflows yourself, such as queries, scripts, dashboards and prototypes, then partner with engineers to scale them.
  • Translate customer-facing model needs into concrete workflows, specifications and project plans.
  • Coordinate across operations, engineering and research to bring new systems from concept to launch.
  • Use data to guide decisions and track output, quality and cost.

Requirements

What we're looking for

  • Bachelor's degree in an engineering or other technical science, earned at a highly ranked university in the US or Canada.
  • 2 to 8 years in a product management, technical program management, founder, forward deployed engineering or technical operations role. Pure product management or pure software engineering backgrounds do not qualify.
  • Advanced database query skills plus the ability to assemble small working prototypes alone, from start to finish.
  • Experience independently creating internal utilities to handle intricate operational work, whether at an early-stage company, in advisory work or in an operations function.
  • Strong product intuition and the ability to work well with engineers and researchers.
  • Recent work at a fast-moving young company or a leading technology firm.
  • Background in a demanding customer-facing engineering organization, or a consulting or technical program management background paired with a technical education.

Benefits

  • Unlimited paid time off
  • Health, dental and vision coverage
  • Health savings and flexible spending account access
  • Retirement plan
