VP of AI Strategy

Другое

• Company.org is searching for a VP of AI Strategy. You will report to our COO. As a key member of our executive team, you’ll develop and drive the organization’s AI strategy and transformation, such that all teams are effectively leveraging AI for step-Company improvements in the quality and velocity of our work.
• Company.org is the world’s largest platform for democracy.
• At a time when dissatisfaction with democracy globally is at an all-time high, we’re investing heavily in using AI to build an operating system for modern democracy. This includes our platform for giving people a greater voice, a personalized voter guide for elections, and a new product which aims to bring people across the political spectrum together to identify shared solutions.
• To realize this vision, we’re expanding the most talented team in the world at the intersection of technology and social impact - all focused on building healthier democracies globally.
• Develop and communicate an AI strategy that has wide alignment and support across the organization.
• Build and maintain an iterative roadmap of AI transformation initiatives across and within our teams.
• Develop a robust AI learning program, including regular ‘step Company’ training and frequent AI demos relevant to each team.
• Infuse the organization with frequent insights into developments in AI relevant to each team, and push all of us to grasp what’s already possible, or coming soon.
• Own the AI transformation operating cadence — run the meeting rhythm and reporting forums (AI-Exec, AI-PD, and related working groups) that keep teams aligned on sequencing and dependencies.
• Come in with ‘big ears’ and proactively listen to ICs on the ground before recommending major changes — map what’s actually happening versus what leadership believes is happening, and deliver candid recommendations on where AI adoption stands and should be going.
• Partner with Engineering on tooling operations — triage tool requests and keep the org current on the AI tooling landscape (without owning technical build decisions).
• Stand up the org’s first AI adoption and impact measurement framework.
• Build strong working relationships with the org’s existing AI leads as a thought partner.
• The most important core competencies for the role are:
• Leading through influence, not authority — proven ability to convince senior stakeholders and drive cross-functional alignment with no direct reporting line over them.
• Program/product management rigor — can build and run a recurring cadence that holds multiple functions accountable to a shared plan.
• Senior-management-level credibility — prior experience operating at a level where you’ve directly partnered with or advised C-suite/VP stakeholders (e.g. in a role as Chief of Staff, senior program/product management, or equivalent).
• Uniquely strong AI fluency and bleeding-edge awareness — maintains a real external network of AI practitioners and tools, and translates outside developments into internal recommendations.
• Technical literacy and credibility: may not be a PM or engineer, but can easily understand and contribute to in depth, technical PD discussions.
• 6–8+ years within a fast-moving tech organization
• Demonstrated experience operating at senior-management level, or in a Chief of Staff-type role which leads through influence, not authority, at a senior level.
• Direct experience helping an organization adopt a significant new technology or way of working, ideally including an AI adoption initiative in the last 1–2 years.
• Track record partnering across Product, Design, and Engineering specifically.
• Experience in program/product management, strategy operations, or Chief of Staff–type roles, is a plus but not required.
• Communications/Ops team exposure is a plus, not required.
• This is a full-time role and we are open to candidates living in the US, Canada, Mexico, Argentina and Brazil.
