If you combine this real-time data with our 40-year-old archives, elite journalists, camera operators, copywriters, the latest in AI wizardry, and a host of 'behind the scenes' support staff, you've got all the ingredients to make it a magical experience! We are seeking a visionary Vice President of AI & Computer Vision to lead the design, development, and deployment of next-generation Sports AI Platforms. This executive will oversee the strategy and build-out of advanced computer vision (CV) and machine learning (ML) solutions that power real-time sports data collection, athlete tracking, video analysis, and fan engagement products. The SVP will partner cross-functionally across product, engineering, operations, and commercial teams, building a highly scalable AI/CV stack on Amazon Web Services (AWS) infrastructure. This leader will be accountable for technical excellence, innovation velocity, and building a world-class engineering culture around data, models, and applied ML. Define and execute the company's AI and CV strategy for automated sports data collection, video intelligence, and platform scalability. Lead the design and build of cloud-based AI pipelines utilizing AWS tools such as SageMaker, Rekognition, Bedrock, Kinesis Video Streams, and Lambda. Oversee teams developing real-time CV models for player/object tracking, ball trajectory, skeletal keypoints, and broadcast automation. Build AI/ML platforms that optimize latency, model accuracy, and computational efficiency under live sports conditions. Partner with product leaders to translate technology capabilities into new B2B sports data monetization opportunities. Drive best-in-class data quality frameworks, leveraging annotation pipelines, synthetic data generation, and MLOps governance. Recruit, develop, and retain top CV/ML scientists, data engineers, and platform architects. Collaborate with clients, federations, and ecosystem partners on adoption of automated data capture solutions. 15+ years of leadership experience in AI/ML, with at least 7+ years leading CV-centric platforms at scale. Proven experience scaling cloud-native architectures on AWS, including real-time ingestion, training, deployment, and monitoring of ML models. Deep expertise in computer vision methods (detection, tracking, segmentation, multimodal models). Strong command of ML Ops frameworks (SageMaker, Kubeflow, MLFlow, Ray) and modern data pipelines. Background working in sports technology, broadcast, or real-time tracking systems preferred. Track record of leading large-scale technical organizations (50+ engineers/scientists). Visionary yet execution-focused leader. Comfortable operating in fast-growth, high-stakes sports/media environments. Exceptional communicator and executive stakeholder manager.
