Tech Director, AI Products

About the role

As the Tech Director of AI Products, you will be the founding technical leader of our team - a hands-on, full-stack player-coach who sets the architecture and ships production code. You will lead the engineering work on our first product bets, shape the patterns R/GA will inherit as it ships AI to the market, and partner directly with our Head of AI Products and the R/GA Global CTO. You will work within a small, senior team - alongside an AI Engineer and a Senior PM - with an explicit mandate to ship reusable products rather than bespoke client work. This is an engineer-first role requiring the judgment of an architect and the instincts of a founder. You will write production code daily across the stack, directing agents fluently and writing by hand where it matters most. We hire for one specific shape: technically minded, T-shaped individuals with a track record of building long-term AI products that have shipped, sold, and lasted - not just demos.
