Chief AI Officer, IgniteTech (Remote) - $400,000/year USD

Elite AI Product Visionaries Only: Lead the GenAI Revolution Across 30+ Enterprise Products

IgniteTech is transforming B2B enterprise software with a GenAI-first approach that demands exceptional leadership. We're seeking a proven AI product strategist to revolutionize our diverse portfolio and drive unprecedented customer retention through cutting-edge AI integration.

Working directly with the CEO, you'll architect our GenAI strategy across 30+ products, identifying high-value opportunities and executing transformative roadmaps that position IgniteTech at the vanguard of enterprise AI adoption. Your expertise will shape not just our products, but the future direction of B2B software in the age of artificial intelligence.

This is not a theoretical position—we require demonstrated success in bringing AI products to market and scaling them. Your strategic vision will directly impact business outcomes in a company committed to excellence and positioned to lead the GenAI revolution.

What You Will Be Doing

• Develop comprehensive AI Opportunity Matrices that strategically rank customer problems by AI feasibility, business value, and risk—guiding decisive go/no-go decisions and development prioritization
• Architect progressive AI-Enhanced Product Roadmaps that systematically transform current offerings into AI-powered solutions, with clear dependencies, success metrics, and balanced implementation timelines
• Create precise AI Feature Requirements that translate advanced capabilities into actionable user stories, complete with rigorous acceptance criteria, performance benchmarks, and robust fallback protocols
• Execute Customer AI Readiness Assessments that identify adoption barriers across segments and deliver targeted enablement plans to accelerate successful AI feature implementation
  
  

What You Won’t Be Doing

• Navigating bureaucratic approval processes that impede innovation—we maintain a streamlined decision-making structure that empowers your expertise
• Developing AI features in isolation—your work will be directly informed by customer needs and aligned with strategic business objectives
• Managing theoretical AI projects—every initiative you lead will be targeted for production deployment with measurable business impact
• Operating with limited resources—IgniteTech is committed to providing the necessary support for successful AI transformation across our portfolio
  
  

Chief AI Officer Key Responsibilities

Drive measurable business growth by strategically integrating Generative AI functionalities across IgniteTech's entire product portfolio, directly impacting customer engagement, retention, and competitive advantage in the enterprise software market.

Basic Requirements

• Proven track record of successfully launching at least 2 production-grade products or major features with AI/ML as core functionality—prototypes and experiments are insufficient
• Demonstrated expertise managing the complete product lifecycle for AI-enabled solutions, from initial concept through development to scaled deployment and optimization
• Established experience directing data science and ML engineering teams from a product leadership position, effectively translating technical capabilities into business value
