Lead and grow the AI Products team to build AI and agent capabilities for go-to-market automation.
Requirements
- 4+ years building and shipping ML or AI/LLM systems in production, including 3+ years managing or leading engineers
- A track record of building and scaling AI-powered product capabilities 0-to-1, and of growing a small, strong engineering team while staying hands-on
- Strategic and opinionated: you turn ambiguous ideas into production-ready features and can defend sharp technical calls to product and engineering leadership
- Depth in evaluation and quality measurement for non-deterministic AI/LLM systems, including model selection and the tradeoffs between quality, latency, and cost
- Strong, current Python; you still write and review production code
- Applied AI experience is essential, including building products on large language models and partnering with product, design, and data to shape an AI roadmap
Nice to have
- Built on or near Salesforce, data warehouses, or against another large, messy enterprise data source
- Experience with the modern eval/observability stack (Promptfoo, Braintrust, Langfuse) and durable execution (Inngest, Temporal)
- A founder, founding-engineer, or early-engineer background owning a product end to end
Conditions
- The salary for this role will be between $250,000 and $300,000 base, plus equity.
Other
- LeanData helps the world’s fastest-growing companies automate, simplify, and accelerate revenue.
- We are looking for a hands-on engineering manager to lead the team building LeanData’s AI Products: the AI and agent capabilities that power go-to-market for the world’s fastest-growing companies.
- You own the technical vision for our AI and agent platform, drive 0-to-1 from ambiguous go-to-market problems to production-ready features, and set the evaluation discipline and AI best practices the whole engineering team follows. You manage and grow a small, strong team of AI/ML and agent engineers, and stay technical enough to design and ship alongside them. This is a strategic, opinionated, and fast-moving role.
- This role reports to the SVP of Engineering and is based in our Santa Clara, CA office. You are required to be in office Mondays and Wednesdays each week.
- Lead and grow the AI Products team: hire, coach, mentor, and raise the technical bar
- Set our AI and agent best practices, and the evaluation and quality bar for non-deterministic AI and LLM systems, across the whole engineering team
- Own the technical vision for our AI and agent platform, and build the evaluation infrastructure and abstractions other LeanData teams use to ship AI features
- Stay hands-on: design, review, and ship alongside your engineers (roughly half your time)
- Drive 0-to-1: turn ambiguous go-to-market problems into production-ready AI features, partnering with product, design, and data to shape the roadmap
- Own the quality, reliability, and delivery of the team’s AI work, and drive the model and LLM upgrade pipeline, balancing quality, latency, and cost
