Director, AI & Machine Learning

we are looking for a Director, AI & Machine Learning.
As the Director of AI & ML you will serve as the strategic and technical anchor for our Israel based AI and Machine Learning functions reporting directly to the VP of Data & AI. You will own the delivery of the core capabilities that power our product bridging the gap between high level business strategy and production grade AI execution. This is a high impact leadership role designed for a senior technical partner who can drive cross organizational alignment across Product, Engineering and Platform teams.
We are looking for a leader who moves beyond a traditional management layer to represent the DS/AI function in leadership discussions and strategic planning while maintaining a close operating rhythm with global leadership. In this role you will ensure our AI initiatives are integrated into the heart of the product lifecycle while serving as a credible senior partner for the technical leads. You will be responsible for shaping the future of how our organization builds and scales intelligent systems that handle sensitive healthcare data with precision and scalability.
Scope & Team
This role owns two teams within the Data & AI group:
AI Team: Builds patient-facing AI capabilities, NLP models, and clinical decision-support features.
ML Team: Owns production ML pipelines, model monitoring, and machine learning infrastructure.
Beyond direct team management, this role carries significant cross-organizational strategic responsibility:
Product interface: Bridge the gap between PMs and DS/AI team leads. The TLs are invested at the project level - this Director operates at the strategic level, ensuring AI/ML priorities are shaped early in the product lifecycle, not bolted on after. Be a force of change in how Product and DS/AI collaborate.
Engineering interface: Work peer-to-peer with engineering directors on shared execution dependencies, technical architecture decisions, and resource planning. Own this relationship at the Director level rather than leaving it to individual TLs.
Platform interface: Partner with Platform on infrastructure, data pipelines, and tooling strategy that underpins ML/AI delivery. Ensure DS/AI needs are represented in platform roadmap decisions.
