About the role

  • Lead by example: guide and support the AI team, balancing innovation with delivery, and ensuring clear alignment across disciplines.
  • Design, build, and integrate AI-powered features directly into Pitch’s product experience.
  • Work closely with product and design to identify where AI can meaningfully augment user workflows.
  • Evaluate, and deploy models for production use.
  • Collaborate with infrastructure and backend teams to ensure scalability, reliability, and privacy of AI systems.
  • Stay up to date with advancements in generative AI, NLP, and multimodal models - and bring new ideas into the product.

Requirements

  • Leadership capability: able to coordinate projects, manage scope and priorities, and communicate progress to stakeholders. You have previous experience of having led teams and taken them from idea conception to release of a finished product.
  • Proven experience developing and deploying AI or ML systems in production environments.
  • A genuine passion for AI - you follow the space closely, experiment with new tools, and think deeply about how AI can elevate user experiences.
  • Solid understanding of modern AI/ML techniques, particularly in NLP, generative models, and embeddings.
  • Strong programming experience.
  • While prior experience with Clojure or ClojureScript is a big plus, it’s not a requirement - we’re happy to help you learn. If you have functional programming experience in languages like F#, Lisp, Haskell etc. - even better.
  • Familiarity with APIs and frameworks such as OpenAI, Claude, Fal, etc.
  • Experience with prompt engineering, model evaluation, and iterative experimentation.
  • Comfortable collaborating in a cross-functional, product-focused team.
  • A pragmatic mindset: you care about impact, not just technology.
  • Nice to Haves
  • Experience with vector databases, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), or multimodal systems.
  • Familiarity with building AI-powered user experiences in web applications.
  • Contributions to open-source AI/ML projects or prior work with presentation, productivity, or design tools.
  • Experience using AI to architect, develop and validate features.
