Head of Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning

United States - Remote
About Us:
Live experiences help people cross today’s digital divide and focus on what truly connects us – the here, the now, this once-in-a-lifetime moment that’s bringing us together. To fulfill Gametime’s mission of uniting the world through shared experiences, we make it easy for people to discover and access the live experiences that matter most.
 
With platforms on iOS, Android, mobile web and desktop supporting more than 60,000 events across the US and Canada, we are reimagining the event ticket industry in order to move at the speed of life.

The Role:

Gametime is building the foundation for AI-driven user experiences — from intelligent recommendations and semantic search to automated decision systems and generative interfaces that redefine how fans discover and engage with live events.

The Head of AI & Machine Learning will lead the technical and organizational buildout of GT’s AI and ML foundations across our ML Platform, AI Platform, and Modeling teams.

This is a critical technical leadership role — responsible for shaping how GT powers next-generation user experiences through scalable infrastructure, production-grade ML, and large language model (LLM) integrations. The ideal candidate is a hands-on, execution-focused leader who can architect systems, build high-impact teams, and evolve our AI strategy as capabilities grow.

 

What you will work on

Build the Foundation

  • Partner with leadership to develop ethical AI standards, governance frameworks, and performance metrics that scale responsibly.

Team Building & Mentorship

  • Recruit, mentor, and grow a world-class team of ML engineers, data scientists, and AI platform developers.

  • Foster a culture of technical excellence, curiosity, and cross-disciplinary collaboration.

  • Establish strong feedback loops between research, engineering, and product to accelerate innovation.

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.
