Lead AI Engineer - NBA

Become a part of our caring community The Lead AI Engineer owns the design and delivery of the NBA platform's agentic AI capabilities.

You also lead a small team of engineers and contractors focused on bringing AI-powered workflows and intelligent analysis into the platform's user-facing experiences.

This role is forward-looking: you are building the foundation for how AI augments and automates decision-making across the platform.
