• Lead the vision, roadmap, and go-to-market approach for Agent Builder Studio, enabling customers and partners to compose intelligent O2C workflows using agentic AI — without writing a line of code.
• Own the product strategy for the Sidetrade Data Lake — defining how data assets are structured, enriched, governed, and surfaced across all O2C domains, driving continuous improvement across Gold, Silver, and Bronze data layers.
• Own the roadmap for Sidetrade's traditional ML models, including creation of new models, refactoring and scaling existing ones, and managing on-premises model development and deployment.
• Define and execute Sidetrade's LLM fine-tuning strategy, building proprietary O2C intelligence models grounded in customer feedback loops, rigorous evaluation frameworks, and domain-specific training data.
• Define and own the suite of predictive KPIs, cash flow signals, risk scores, and behavioural insights that differentiate Sidetrade's intelligence offering for enterprise finance leaders.
• Collaborate with the CPO, Product Marketing, and Sales to shape how AI and data capabilities are packaged, positioned, and priced — contributing actively to commercialisation strategy alongside GTM and senior leadership.

• Strong understanding of modern data architecture patterns — Data Mesh, lakehouse, Bronze/Silver/Gold layers, data contracts — and the ability to make clear product decisions grounded in these foundations.
• The ability to take deeply technical AI and data topics and turn them into compelling, jargon-free narratives that resonate with CFOs, finance leaders, and enterprise buyers — driving adoption and commercial confidence.
• Comfortable and credible hosting webinars, conducting press and analyst interviews, presenting at conferences, and engaging C-suite stakeholders at customer and prospect sites.
• A genuine passion for the latest AI innovations, with the discipline to continuously evaluate new techniques, tools, and research and bring the most relevant advances into Sidetrade's roadmap.
