You should already know what it feels like to build 0-1 and then scale past it, ideally with real experience implementing LLM-based products in production, not just prototyping with them. What matters more than any specific technology is whether you can operate without a fully-formed roadmap and build one as you go, making prioritization calls that disappoint someone most weeks because the alternative is worse. You're a hiring partner first, not last: growing this org means you treat recruiting and developing talent as core to the job, not something you delegate and forget.
If you thrive with a mature architecture, a settled team, and a roadmap someone else already stress-tested, this role will frustrate you. If you want to build all three from an early stage while still writing code often enough to earn trust in a review, this is exactly the seat.
