• Core AI Platform Strategy: Define and execute the roadmap for Sayari’s AI infrastructure. You will own the requirements for the orchestration layers, prompt management systems, and the underlying platform architecture that powers our generative intelligence. • Model Lifecycle & SLM Ownership: Lead the strategy for model selection, fine-tuning, and deployment. This includes evaluating the trade-offs between frontier models and domain-specific Small Language Models (SLMs) to optimize for performance, cost-to-serve, and user latency. • Automated Evaluation & Trust: Establish the "ground truth" for Sayari AI. You will define and build rigorous evaluation frameworks, benchmarking non-deterministic outputs to ensure accuracy, provenance, and adherence to "system of work" reliability standards. • Intelligence Orchestration: Define how our systems reason and interact. This includes owning the product requirements for agentic workflows, Model Context Protocols (MCPs), and "self-repairing" systems that maintain data integrity and model reliability at scale. • Collaborative AI Delivery: Partner deeply with "Front-end" Application PMs to ensure backend capabilities translate into seamless user experiences. While responsibilities are delineated between platform and application, you are expected to "lean in" across the stack to ensure business outcomes are met. • Investment & Outcome Strategy: Author the business cases and define business outcomes for significant technical shifts in our AI stack. You will articulate how foundational backend improvements directly translate to superior product outcomes, market dominance, and reduced operational overhead. • Tradecraft Codification & Expert AI: Lead the effort to translate complex analyst tradecraft and investigative methodologies into automated "Skills" and agentic reasoning. You will ensure that the platform's AI outputs reflect the judgment, precision, and trust required for high-stakes economic security and risk intelligence. • Cultural Architect: You will act as a Cultural Architect for AI, evangelizing a 'Quality-First' mindset across the company and ensuring that our transition to an AI-native product suite is grounded in human-centric design and ethical accountability.
