This role blends technical depth, product strategy, and hands‑on experience with AI technologies—including NLP, ML, and LLM platforms—to drive product capabilities that meet business needs and engineer scalable, modern solutions. You will partner closely with cross‑functional teams to define requirements, manage the product backlog, and ensure delivery of features that bring measurable value to customers and internal stakeholders.What You’ll Do

• Collaborate closely with AI/ML engineers and data science teams to scope AI-driven features and evaluate feasibility.
• Participate in all Agile ceremonies, including sprint planning, backlog refinement, retrospectives, and demos, helping ensure consistent delivery of high‑value increments.
• Define and uphold the “definition of done,” validating that delivered features meet quality, performance, and functional expectations.
• Identify, prioritize, and champion resolution of technical debt and architectural enablers.
• Oversee creation and maintenance of technical documentation, such as API guides, system workflows, and integration specifications.
• Recommend ongoing improvements to product workflows, team processes, and technical practices—especially around AI development, deployment, and evaluation.

• Solid understanding of software development, system architecture, APIs (REST/SOAP), databases, and cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, or GCP).
• Proficiency with backlog management tools such as Jira or Azure DevOps.
• Expertise in writing user stories and acceptance criteria for Agile teams.
• Excellent communication skills with the ability to engage both technical and non‑technical audiences.
• Demonstrated success collaborating with cross‑functional teams, including AI/ML engineering groups.
