Chaos Industries Product Lead for Agents of CHAOS at Chaos Industries leading internal software and AI initiatives. Builds prototypes, automations, and integrations while collaborating across business functions.
Responsibilities
Agents of CHAOS is a new internal software and AI team focused on making CHAOS faster and more effective. As Product Lead, you’ll work across business functions to identify high-value problems, decide when to build, buy, integrate, automate, or change a process, and turn the best opportunities into working software. You’ll also balance your team building software versus creating capabilities (software and enablement) for other internal teams to develop their own.
Especially early on, this is a builder role as much as a product role. You’ll prototype, write code, create automations and integrations, and use AI-assisted development tools alongside engineers—not simply scope work for others. Over time, you’ll help establish reusable foundations that enable teams across CHAOS to build and automate more effectively themselves.
Work directly with teams across Finance, HR, Recruiting, Growth, Operations, Engineering, Manufacturing, IT, and Security to understand workflows, bottlenecks, and opportunities for internal software or AI.
Turn ambiguous requests into clear problem statements, user workflows, success measures, and appropriately scoped projects; distinguish software opportunities from process, policy, training, or vendor problems.
Develop priorities in concert with a steerco to address quick wins, reusable platform capabilities, and longer-term internal systems while balancing impact, urgency, cost, risk, dependencies, and maintenance burden.
Personally build working prototypes, automations, lightweight applications, and integrations using code, APIs, AI-assisted development tools, and low-code platforms; particularly early on, expect to implement meaningful portions of solutions.
Partner closely with engineers to move solutions from prototype to production, making pragmatic decisions about architecture, data flows, permissions, maintainability, sequencing, and build-versus-buy tradeoffs.
Create reusable capabilities for data access, permissions, integrations, agent workflows, and other common needs so each new internal tool is easier to build, deploy, and operate than the last.
Work full-time onsite in our Los Angeles office.
Occasional travel may be required for cross-functional collaboration with other CHAOS offices and operating locations.
