AI Product Owner (MarTech & Generative AI)
What you’ll be doing...
We’re looking for you to bring the latest and greatest AI-driven marketing features to our customers—and to help us tell the marketplace about what’s new and why they need to have it. This Product Owner role combines deep technical knowledge of Generative AI and advanced analytics with strategic product management to deliver solutions that revolutionize personalization, content generation, and customer engagement.
Collaborating with others, you’ll build the roadmap and drive the process from ideation through design and roll-out. As the "quarterback" of your build squad, you will serve as the primary translator between business stakeholders and AI technical teams, ensuring that our AI initiatives drive measurable incremental impact. Your focus will be on AI products and experimentation frameworks that solve customer challenges and drive key business outcomes through data.

With a knack for working with different types of people, you inspire others to do their best work and carry out your vision.
