The AI Lead is responsible for identifying, building, validating, and scaling AI-powered product solutions that drive real customer and business outcomes.
This role is hands-on and AI-first. An AI Lead does not operate through documents, tickets, or handoffs. They build working solutions using AI, engage directly with customers, and iterate rapidly based on real-world feedback.
The AI Lead does everything an AI Product Engineer does - plus owns customer discovery, validation, prioritization, and measurable impact.
Dockmaster is a leading provider of innovative marina software solutions, dedicated to equipping our customers with the tools that streamline operations, improve operational efficiency while driving revenue growth. Our largest customer concentration is in North America but are quickly expanding to have a global presence.
