Head of Consumer AI Business

Seattle, WA

Compensation: $400K+

Travel Requirement: International travel required to India 8+ times per year

 

AI Foundry supports one of the world’s largest conglomerates—an organization with the infrastructure, capital, and distribution to reach 500M+ consumers across India and beyond. We’re building an AI-native consumer platform from scratch: not incremental feature work on top of legacy products, but a ground-up reimagining of what consumer AI looks like when you start from an agentic OS at the core, backed by gigawatt-scale compute and an ecosystem that already touches hundreds of millions of people daily.

We’re looking for someone who can own the entire consumer AI vertical end-to-end: product vision, go-to-market, and commercial execution. You won’t be writing strategy decks for someone else to execute—you’ll be in the room with senior leadership and external partners, making the case, setting direction, and building the business. This role requires someone who can operate at the most senior levels with confidence, challenge conventional thinking with substance, and translate a bold technical vision into products that reach massive consumer audiences.

If you’ve built consumer-facing AI products at scale and know what it takes to go from concept to hundreds of millions of users, this is your opportunity to do it with real resources, real autonomy, and a parent organization whose reach gives you a built-in path to extraordinary scale.

What You'll Do

  • Own the consumer AI business end-to-end: product strategy, revenue, partnerships, and growth across all consumer-facing AI products and services
  • Translate the company’s agentic OS vision into a concrete consumer product roadmap—defining what the platform looks like for end users and how it scales to hundreds of millions
  • Represent the consumer vertical in board-level and senior leadership settings; hold your own in rooms with executives, investors, and major technology partners
  • Drive go-to-market strategy for consumer AI products, including positioning, distribution, partnerships, and pricing
  • Work closely with engineering and platform teams to ensure consumer product requirements shape infrastructure decisions
  • Build and lead a commercial and product team as the consumer business scales
  • Stay deeply fluent in the evolving AI landscape—foundation models, agentic frameworks, consumer AI trends—and bring that fluency to every strategic conversation
  • Travel regularly to India to work with engineering and product teams on the ground

Who You Are

  • You’ve built or led consumer products at massive scale—ideally 100M+ users—and understand the mechanics of consumer growth, engagement, and monetization at that level
  • You have meaningful experience at a major technology company (think hyperscaler, top-tier tech, or equivalent) and understand how large organizations operate, but you haven’t been slowed down by it—you still move fast, make decisions with imperfect information, and build
  • You are deeply AI-fluent: not just conversant in buzzwords, but able to engage substantively on model capabilities, agentic architectures, and product implications—and you can distinguish real substance from hype
  • You have exceptional executive presence—the ability to walk into a room with C-suite executives, board members, or major technology partners and hold your ground with confidence, data, and strategic clarity
  • You’ve owned a P&L or business line and understand the economics of building and scaling a consumer business, not just the product side
  • You are building right now—actively working on hard problems, shipping product, staying sharp—not coasting on past accomplishments
  • You thrive in ambiguity and can define the playbook rather than follow one; you’re energized by building something from scratch with real backing
  • You’re a strong communicator who can translate between deeply technical teams and business stakeholders across geographies and time zones
  • You bring a background that combines technical depth with business acumen—e.g., engineering background with an MBA from a top program, or product leadership with deep technical fluency
  • You have experience building consumer AI products—conversational AI, recommendation engines, agentic consumer applications—or building platforms at leading AI labs or major consumer technology companies
  • You’re familiar with Indian market dynamics and have experience working with distributed global teams
  • You have existing relationships with consumer technology partners, distribution channels, or key ecosystem players

Benefits & More

  • Opportunity to shape AI strategy for 500M+ users
  • Small, sharp team culture that uses AI extensively in our own work
  • Medical and dental benefits
  • 401K

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
