- Shape both the near-term roadmap and the long-term vision for AI/ML at Chess.com.
- Bring your own point of view on what's worth building and why, while engaging with feedback from leadership and peers.
- Communicate async via Slack, brainstorm openly, and be explicit on urgency and reasoning for decisions.
- Partner deeply with engineering to shape technical approaches and write crisp specs.
- Define success criteria and evaluation methods alongside engineers and researchers.
- Use AI to prototype, build mocks, test flows, and pressure-test ideas personally before engineering investment.
What they're looking for
- Ability to make decisive calls with incomplete data and revisit them as learning occurs.
- Expertise in melding qualitative product feedback with quantitative models.
- Capacity to operate in a globally remote environment through async communication.
- Skill in driving through to execution by unblocking and reprioritizing tasks.
