Director - Data & AI

You are the technical and product owner of a new business line, responsible for both what gets built and what gets sold.\n\nThe work spans the full stack: data infrastructure, machine learning, applied AI, and the commercial product layer that sits on top. The problems are genuinely hard -- multi-vendor hardware, real-time event streams at scale, complex energy market signals, and operators running critical public infrastructure that cannot tolerate errors.\nWhat you will own\nData platform architecture and delivery -- the foundation that everything else depends on\nMachine learning and AI system design, from model training through to production operation\nReal-time data ingestion and processing at scale across heterogeneous hardware and markets\nAll foundational technology decisions: stack, tooling, infrastructure approach\nProduction reliability of every system and model the team ships\n\nAI product scope and packaging\nTechnical relationships with Driivz's most strategically important operator accounts\nData strategy and technology roadmap\nteamwork with the CPO to define the art of the possible use cases\n\nWhat we are looking for\nNon-negotiable\nYou have built a data or AI platform from 0 to 1 at a B2B SaaS or industrial technology company.\nYou have shipped AI systems that execute decisions or actions in production.\nYou have led a data or AI team across engineering and science disciplines.\nYou are technically deep and commercially aware. You can design a data architecture in the morning and have a credible commercial conversation with a senior operator in the afternoon.\nYou operate well under ambiguity.

You are the person who turns the former into the latter.\n\nStrong signal\nEV, energy, smart grid, or industrial IoT background or a clear track record of acquiring deep domain knowledge quickly in a new technical vertical\nProduction experience with agentic or autonomous AI including cost optimization and efficiency\nIndustrial or IoT protocol experience: OCPP, MQTT, or equivalent, high-frequency event streams from hardware at scale\nSnowflake at production scale: schema design, real-time ingestion pipelines, ML integration, cost governance\nConfidence calibration and threshold design for AI systems that operate without human approval on every decision\nEffective cross-timezone leadership: comfortable building a high-performing team while operating as a daily peer to global commercial and CS leadership\n\nAbout Driivz\nDriivz is a Vontier company and one of the world's leading EV charging management platforms, operating across 35 countries.
