Job Summary:
As a Director of Innovation Delivery you will build AI-native products. You’ll lead cross-functional Innovation Delivery Squads—owning outcomes end-to-end across web, mobile, AI agents, and streaming backends. You’re a hands-on technical leader who can scope, architect, staff, and ship; then run the product safely at scale.
Responsibilities:
•
Stand up and run squads (Discovery → Prototype → Product → Platform & SRE).
•
Design and ship RAG/agent systems: pick models (e.g., Anthropic Claude, OpenAI, Google, or open-weights like Llama/Mistral), define tools/functions, and choose retrieval (default Postgres + pgvector, scale to Weaviate/Qdrant/Pinecone when needed).
•
Operate AI safely: evals & guardrails, structured outputs (JSON/Schema), PII redaction, refusal policies, cost/latency budgets, and LLM observability.
•
Own delivery outcomes: SLOs, quality, cost, velocity; release with feature flags and canaries.
•
Be client-facing: discovery, scoping, SoW, roadmap, QBRs.
•
Hire/coach Tech Leads, EMs, and PMs; level up practices.
Requirements
•
8–12+ yrs engineering; 4+ yrs leading multi-team delivery; shipped production web/mobile systems at scale.

Tech stack (you have hands on experience)
•
Models: Anthropic Claude; OpenAI; Google; open-weights (Llama, Mistral).
•
Orchestration & agents: LangGraph (or DSPy) for graphs; Temporal for durable, long-running tasks and SLAs.

•
Embeddings / rerankers: OpenAI/Voyage/E5/BGE; Cohere/Jina/Voyage rerank.
•
Guardrails & evals: JSON/Pydantic schemas, red-team sets, promptfoo/Ragas/DeepEval; content/PII filters.
•
