This is not a research position. The Chief AI Officer is responsible for translating AI capability into business outcomes — owning the full AI strategy, building the team, governing risk, and delivering measurable ROI across the organization.
You sit at the executive table. You translate between technical teams and the board. You make the build vs. buy vs. partner decisions. You define what AI means for this company’s competitive position — and then you execute it.
1 in 4 companies now have a CAIO. The ones who hire right win market share. The ones who hire wrong spend two years on pilots that never scale.

Team building
- Recruit, structure, and lead ML, AI Engineering, and MLOps orgs
