TechDirector,AIProducts

About R/GA R/GA is a globally renowned design and innovation network that has been reinventing industry standards for over four decades. From pioneering computer-assisted film production to defining digital platforms of the connected age — such as the original Nike+ ecosystem and the launch of Beats by Dre — R/GA helps brands adapt and thrive in the face of disruptive technology. Now independent, we are investing heavily in AI to lead the Intelligence Age. About AI Products (AIP) AI Products (AIP) is the team building R/GA's next chapter. Our mandate is to shift the business from service-as-labor to service-as-software — turning innovation already taking shape across the network into reusable AI products R/GA can take to market. We build with agents: a substantial share of our code is agent-generated, and every team member is an expert at directing agents to produce production-quality work. We are engineering-led, small by design, and just getting started. About the Role As the Tech Director of AI Products, you will be the founding technical leader of our team — a hands-on, full-stack player-coach who sets the architecture and ships production code. You will lead the engineering work on our first product bets, shape the patterns R/GA will inherit as it ships AI to the market, and partner directly with our Head of AI Products and the R/GA Global CTO. You will work within a small, senior team — alongside an AI Engineer and a Senior PM — with an explicit mandate to ship reusable products rather than bespoke client work. This is an engineer-first role requiring the judgment of an architect and the instincts of a founder. You will write production code daily across the stack, directing agents fluently and writing by hand where it matters most. We hire for one specific shape: technically minded, T-shaped individuals with a track record of building long-term AI products that have shipped, sold, and lasted — not just demos.
