A1 is a self-funded AI group, operating in full stealth. We’re building a new global consumer AI application where product decisions are inseparable from model behavior, system constraints, and real user outcomes.
Why This Role Matters
* You define what we build and why, grounded in what AI can actually do
* You shape how model capabilities turn into real user value
* You ensure product ambition stays aligned with technical reality
* You own AI product quality across UX, reliability, and outcomes
* You influence the direction of the company’s earliest and most critical use cases
What You’ll Do
* Own the end-to-end AI product strategy, grounded in technical feasibility
* Translate model capabilities, data constraints, and evaluation results into clear product decisionsMake hard tradeoffs across quality, latency, cost, reliability, and UX
* Work daily with ML, backend, and mobile engineers on design, evaluation, and iteration
* Define success metrics and feedback loops across offline evaluation, online testing, and human feedback
* Drive execution with clear specs, risk awareness, and disciplined prioritization
* Ensure AI features ship fast, safely, and reliably into production
