Director Product-AI Contact Center
Full-time
About The Role
We are looking for an exceptional product leader to build and scale our next-generation AI-powered Contact Center and Customer Operations platform.
This leader will own the product vision, strategy, roadmap, and execution for transforming traditional contact centers into AI-native, increasingly autonomous operations. The platform will combine conversational AI, voice, intelligent routing, agent assist, AI agents, workflow automation, knowledge, analytics, and enterprise systems into a unified experience that dramatically improves customer experience while reducing cost and creating capacity.
This is a high-impact leadership role for a product executive who can operate at the intersection of AI, enterprise software, customer experience, and business transformation. The ideal candidate is equally comfortable defining a multi-year product vision with executives, working deeply with engineering and AI teams, and sitting with customers to understand complex operational problems.
A Day in the Life
Define and drive the product vision and strategy for an AI-native contact center platform
Build a differentiated product roadmap spanning:
AI voice and conversational experiences
Virtual agents and autonomous AI agents
Agent assist and human-AI collaboration
Intelligent routing and orchestration
Knowledge and enterprise context
Workflow automation
Quality management and interaction intelligence
Workforce optimization
Contact center analytics and business intelligence
Customer journey orchestration

Work directly with strategic customers and executives to identify high-value use cases and convert them into scalable products
Define product-led growth and commercialization strategies, including packaging, pricing, consumption models, and ROI measurement
Build the product organization, operating model, talent strategy, and culture required to scale the business
Establish measurable product outcomes including automation rate, containment, resolution rate, cost per interaction, customer satisfaction, revenue impact, and time created for employees
Serve as a senior product evangelist with customers, partners, analysts, and the broader AI ecosystem
The Opportunity
The contact center is undergoing a fundamental transformation
Traditional contact centers were built around humans using software
The next generation will be built around AI agents using enterprise context, tools, workflows, and humans when needed
Our ambition is to build the platform that enables enterprises to make this transition — moving beyond point solutions and chatbots toward end-to-end autonomous customer operations
The successful leader will define what this category looks like and build the product that becomes its foundation.
This is an onsite role based in San Francisco, CA, requiring five days a week in the office
