Sr. Director - AI Product Development & Product Excellence Transformation
SharkNinja, Needham, MA +1
The role
Location: Boston, MA preferred; New York, NY acceptable (On-site)
Reports to: VP, Chief of Staff to the CEO
This is a high-impact leadership role at the intersection of AI, product development, product quality, and organizational transformation. You will own the strategy and execution of AI integration across both SharkNinja's Product Development (PD) and Product Excellence (PE) organizations -- spanning the full product lifecycle from category strategy and conception through launch, and extending into consumer insights, product integrity, process quality, and manufacturing engineering.
Today, much of this work relies on PowerPoint-based program management, fragmented data, manual analysis, and institutional knowledge trapped in people's heads. You will change that. You will build the data foundation, deploy AI capabilities, and transform workflows so that SharkNinja develops products faster, smarter, and with higher quality at every stage.
