Meet the team!
Preply is an AI-native company, and the AI Platform is the foundation that underpins all of our AI initiatives.

The role focuses on building the product roadmap with multiple engineering teams, helping other product teams build faster, and measuring the platform’s impact on how fast Preply builds, automates and scales with AI.
