•  Champion hands-on rapid prototyping and iteration
•  Collaborate with other Data Science teams to maximize re-use of components and patterns, eliminating waste, duplication and unnecessary customization
•  Operate with broad scope, coordinating across multiple cross-functional teams, systems, and domains
•  Exercise judgment about where to automate, where to keep a human editor in the loop, and how to move that line over time
•  Select the right tools and technologies for the business problem Technical & Product Leadership
•  Define and execute the AI roadmap for the content platform, prioritizing reusable platform capabilities and agent-based workflows over one-off solutions.
•  Translate ambiguous business problems into clear technical strategies and delivery plans, identifying tradeoffs and alternative approaches when constraints arise.
•  Design and oversee production-grade AI systems that meet customer requirements for accuracy, reliability, scalability, and appropriate human oversight.
•  Partner with Product, Engineering, and Architecture leaders to establish shared foundations, integrate AI into the platform at scale, and replace bespoke tooling with reusable workflows.
•  Lead by example through hands-on technical contributions, including writing code, developing and demonstrating prototypes, and contributing to experiments and production models.
•  Establish and scale Data Science standards for experimentation, evaluation, deployment, monitoring, performance, and reliability across both the team's solutions and shared capabilities. Team & Operational Excellence
•  Foster a culture of curiosity, adaptability, responsible innovation, knowledge sharing, and continuous learning, enabling the team to evolve as technologies, customer needs, and business priorities change.
•  Build, mentor, and develop a high-performing data science team, supporting individual growth and career development.
•  Establish clear goals, priorities, operating rhythms, and accountability for the team's work.
•  Foster effective collaboration across Product, Engineering, Design, Legal, and other business functions.
