Experience establishing governance standards and optimizing workflows across teams. * An AI-forward personal practice-you already use AI tools to accelerate your own work and can demonstrate how automation improves delivery outcomes. Preferred * Experience with computer vision, video processing, or media pipeline programs (encoding, segmentation, metadata extraction). * Familiarity with vendor management for AI/ML services, including evaluating model performance, negotiating SLAs, and managing integration timelines. * Background in sports media, sports data, or adjacent domains (prep sports, broadcast, sports tech). * Exposure to modern data stacks (Snowflake, dbt, Hightouch, Kafka) and event-driven architectures, including familiarity with medallion architecture patterns (Bronze/Silver/Gold). * Experience with OKRs, KPIs, or strategic planning frameworks in a product-led organization. * Familiarity with AI coding assistants, agentic workflows, or process automation tools beyond basic prompt usage. ## Description * Serve as the primary delivery partner for the Streaming Intelligence product line and DPT, converting roadmap priorities into actionable project plans with clear milestones, owners, and dependencies. * Co-own quarterly and annual planning with the Principal PM-from ideation through go-to-market-ensuring engineering capacity, vendor timelines, and business priorities are aligned. * Track and report on product line KPIs defined by the Principal PM (accuracy benchmarks, processing latency, content coverage, downstream adoption) and surface risks or deviations early. * Partner with the data team on agentic AI enablement-coordinating efforts to surface data models and semantic views to the broader business through AI-powered interfaces, including usage tracking and accuracy assurance. * Manage delivery cadence for platform infrastructure initiatives including data governance rollouts, real-time streaming capabilities, and pipeline migration efforts-tracking phased delivery across multiple months with clear metrics of success. AI/ML Program Management * Lead end-to-end program management for AI pipeline initiatives, including the game film analysis benchmarking program that evaluates vision models (e.g., Gemini Flash, Gemini Pro) against human-tagged ground truth across 28+ annotated fields per play. * Manage the cadence of model evaluation cycles: coordinating game imports, prompt engineering iterations, accuracy scoring, and cost analysis across multiple AI models. * Drive vendor integration workstreams-tracking deliverables, SLAs, and roadmap alignment with external computer vision and AI partners alongside the Principal PM. * Build and maintain project documentation for hybrid human-AI workflows, including escalation paths for ambiguous plays, quality review processes, and fallback handling. Cross-Team Coordination & Governance * Facilitate cross-team visibility across product, engineering, data, design, and QA to ensure aligned execution mapping back to PlayOn's unified product objectives: Engaged Communities, Resilient Services, and New Customer Markets. * Own dependency mapping, risk management, and blocker resolution for strategic AI initiatives spanning multiple engineering teams. * Develop and maintain project dashboards, status reports, and executive-level communications that increase transparency of engineering progress to the broader business. * Provide governance and optimization for Atlassian tools (Jira, Confluence) to ensure standardized workflows, consistent estimation practices, and clear traceability from strategy to execution. Operational Excellence & AI-Forward Delivery * Champion operational improvements to planning cycles, stakeholder coordination, cross-org meetings, and feedback loops-creating transparency through standardized tooling and repeatable frameworks. * Actively incorporate AI tools (e.g., Claude, automation platforms) into your own delivery workflows: automating status reports, synthesizing meeting notes, generating risk analyses, and accelerating documentation. * Contribute to PlayOn's broader AI maturity journey by demonstrating AI-augmented delivery practices that can be adopted across the PMO and engineering organization. ## Related Videos - [Improving quality with Agentic AI with Rovo Dev and Xray](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/2005-improving-quality-with-agentic-ai-with-rovo-dev-and-xray) - [How Cisco embraced a DevOps culture within its network engineering team](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/99-how-cisco-embraced-a-devops-culture-within-its-network-engineering-team) - [A Brief History of Data Storage](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/974-a-brief-history-of-data-storage) - [Unlocking Value from Data: The Key to Smarter Business Decisions-](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1367-unlocking-value-from-data-the-key-to-smarter-business-decisions) - [Hacking AI at the Edge of the Indian Ocean](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100177-hacking-ai-at-the-edge-of-the-indian-ocean) - [JSON and Beyond](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/968-json-and-beyond) ## Related Articles - [Dev Digest 132 - Binging WADFlix?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/473-dev-digest-132-binging-wadflix) - [Navigating the AI Shift](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/629-navigating-the-ai-shift) - [Dev Digest 121 - AI goes offline](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/456-dev-digest-121-ai-goes-offline) - [Highest Paying Tech Companies for Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/220-highest-paying-tech-companies-for-developers) - [How We Built a Worry-Free System That Runs for 10+ Years – And What We’d Do Again](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/751-how-we-built-a-worry-free-system-that-runs-for-10-years-and-what-we-d-do-again) - [Dev Digest 120 - Apple and peers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/455-dev-digest-120-apple-and-peers)
