About the company
At Livefront, we help companies design and build intelligent products and platforms that command attention and inspire joy. We’ve helped household names like CVS, Samsung, General Mills, and Optum create experiences that have reached millions of people, and startups like HomeSpotter and Credly build entirely new businesses that challenge their industries’ status quo.
About the role
We’re looking for a Vice President, AI & Automation to join our leadership team. This is a senior leadership role with the opportunity to work remotely.
Who you are
You’re a rare blend of technologist, practice builder, and go-to-market leader—someone who can see where AI is going, translate that into compelling client outcomes, and build the internal capabilities to deliver consistently at a high bar.
You have excellent technical depth across modern AI systems and a strong intuition for where the market is headed. You can engage deeply on AI architecture, data strategy, security, model/tool selection, evaluation, and operationalization while also zooming out to shape service offerings, accelerate sales motions, and grow a high-performing team.
You’re equally comfortable in a whiteboard session with senior engineers as you are in a room with client executives. You are credible, pragmatic, and persuasive. You communicate clearly, manage expectations well, and can defend technical and strategic choices with confidence.
What you will be doing
Build and lead Livefront’s AI & Automation practice
•
Own the evolution and growth of Livefront’s AI & Automation service line, including: AI Strategy & Readiness, Agentic Software Engineering, Enterprise Agents & Workflow Automation, AI Platforms & Context Services Engineering, AI Product Development, and AI Training & Enablement.
•
Own the full portfolio of AI workstreams across the company, ensuring alignment, prioritization, and execution across internal enablement, platform/IP development, client delivery, and market positioning.
•
Define what “excellent” looks like for AI delivery at Livefront: playbooks, reference architectures, evaluation approaches, governance, security posture, and operational standards.
•
Recruit, mentor, and develop a team of AI leaders and practitioners; establish career pathways and raise the technical bar across the organization.
•
Help Livefront evolve all service lines (Digital Strategy & Product, Data & Analytics, Experience Design, Software Engineering, Data & Analytics) to better leverage AI.

•
Track the market direction of AI—platforms, models, tooling, regulations, and emerging patterns—and translate that into clear, differentiated offerings clients can buy.
•
Partner with Livefront leadership to mature our go-to-market approach for AI services: positioning, packaging, sales enablement, pursuit strategy, and thought leadership.
•
Build and manage strategic partnerships across AI frontier labs (e.g., OpenAI, Anthropic), data platforms (e.g., Databricks, Snowflake), and cloud providers (e.g., AWS, Microsoft).
•
Ensure a consistent pipeline of AI-forward case studies and proof points, working across delivery and marketing to translate client work into compelling stories that support sales and positioning.

Lead delivery on high-impact work
•
Lead and/or sponsor key client engagements involving complex AI architectures, agentic systems, and enterprise-grade implementations.
•
Run short, focused experiments when needed to evaluate new tools and approaches, reduce risk, and accelerate delivery.

Why you should apply
You want to help shape what AI consulting and product delivery looks like at a firm known for excellence, and you want to do it with people who are deeply collaborative, pragmatic, and fun to work with.
You’ll have the opportunity to:
•
Build a growing practice with strong leadership support.
•
Influence how Livefront evolves across strategy, design, data, and engineering in an AI-native world.

Significant experience building and shipping modern software systems, with deep expertise in agentic systems, LLMs, and modern AI architectures.
•
A strong foundation in architecture and systems thinking, including APIs, data pipelines, cloud infrastructure, deployment, observability, and security.
•
Credibility across disciplines: data engineering/analytics, product strategy, and experience design as they intersect with AI product development.
•
Demonstrated ability to build and scale a practice (or a strong trajectory as a high-performing leader ready to grow into broader practice ownership).
•
Demonstrated ownership of both delivery and go-to-market outcomes.
•
Experience operationalizing new ways of working across an organization.

Strong client presence: you can lead executive conversations, build trust quickly, manage expectations, and translate complex concepts into clear business value.

Excellent communication skills and the ability to present and defend technical and architectural choices persuasively.

Are an active thought leader (speaking, writing, teaching, open-source, community leadership, etc.).
•
Have built repeatable AI delivery accelerators (evaluation harnesses, reference architectures, governance frameworks, reusable components).
•
Have experience designing and operating AI systems in regulated environments (privacy, compliance, safety, auditability).
•
Have experience partnering with major AI/cloud platforms and shaping partnerships.
•
Have strong illustration chops for technical diagramming and storytelling.
