Description
Elite AI Strategist Wanted: Transform Theoretical AI Into Business Reality
At Ignite, we're not just exploring AI's potential—we're harnessing it to revolutionize industries. While others struggle to bridge the gap between AI theory and implementation, we're strategically aligning advanced AI capabilities with measurable business outcomes.
As our Senior AI Manager, you'll architect our AI future—crafting strategic roadmaps that connect visionary thinking with practical execution. You'll spearhead cutting-edge R&D initiatives, with particular focus on Generative AI technologies that can fundamentally transform our operations. Beyond technical leadership, you'll elevate your team's capabilities, guiding them to design, optimize, and validate AI solutions that exceed both technical benchmarks and business requirements.

- Lead pioneering research and development initiatives that push AI boundaries while delivering tangible business value
- Design, optimize, and rigorously validate sophisticated AI solutions that meet exacting technical standards and business requirements
- Cultivate excellence within your team through strategic mentorship in advanced AI methodologies and implementation approaches
What you will NOT be doing
- Oversee routine maintenance of established AI systems—your focus is strategic innovation, not operational management
- Conduct purely academic research—your expertise will be directed toward solving complex, high-impact business challenges
- Execute tactical-level tasks that don't leverage your strategic vision and leadership capabilities
Key responsibilities
Transform Ignite's business trajectory by developing and implementing a comprehensive AI strategy that directly drives competitive advantage and measurable business outcomes.
Candidate requirements
- Substantial experience in the AI sector, with demonstrated expertise in AI innovation leadership, strategic project direction, and high-performing team development
