Overview

We are seeking an AI Product Lead to drive the identification, development, and delivery of agentic AI use cases across the organization. This individual will operate with a strong product mindset, leading engagements from initial business problem definition through prototyping and phased rollout.

This is not a traditional project management role—this person will function as a product-driven engagement lead, partnering closely with business stakeholders and prototyping teams to deliver impactful, scalable AI solutions.

Key Responsibilities

Lead the end-to-end lifecycle of AI use cases:

Discovery → business case → prototyping → phased rollout → production deployment

Serve as the primary engagement lead with business stakeholders:

Define problems, challenge assumptions, and identify value-driven opportunities

Drive agentic AI initiatives focused on automation, optimization, and business impact
Translate business needs into actionable product features and solutions
Partner cross-functionally with:

Prototyping/engineering teams
Security, IAM, and architecture teams
Business stakeholders across multiple functions

Guide teams through prototype-to-production transitions
Manage and prioritize multiple concurrent use cases
Ensure solutions are aligned to business outcomes and scalability

Must-Haves

Strong product mindset (beyond traditional project execution)
Experience leading business-facing discovery and stakeholder engagement
Exposure to AI / automation / emerging technology use cases
Ability to take ideas from concept → prototype → rollout
Proven ability to lead conversations and drive outcomes independently

Nice-to-Haves

Experience implementing or scaling agentic AI or AI-driven solutions
Familiarity with prototyping environments or AI tooling
Exposure to Agile tools such as Jira, story pointing, or design thinking frameworks
Technical background or strong collaboration with engineering teams

Soft Skills

Highly proactive and ownership-driven
Strong communicator who can lead discussions, not just facilitate
Naturally curious—asks “why” and drives clarity
Strong organizational and follow-through skills
Comfortable working in ambiguous, fast-paced environments

Example Use Cases

Cost optimization across distributed business units
AI-driven dispute management and process automation
Identification and scaling of high-impact agentic AI opportunities

Team & Environment

Part of an AI / Automation Center of Excellence (CoE)
Heavy collaboration with business stakeholders and cross-functional teams
Works alongside prototyping teams to validate and deliver solutions
Acts as a bridge between business needs and technical execution
