Director of Engineering, Data Labs

About Invisible

Invisible Technologies makes AI work. Our end-to-end AI platform structures messy data, automates digital workflows, deploys agentic solutions, measures outcomes, and integrates human expertise where it matters most.

Our platform cleans, labels, and structures company data so it is ready for AI. It adapts models to each business and adds human expertise when needed, the same approach we have used to improve models for more than 80% of the world’s top AI companies, including Microsoft, AWS, and Cohere.

Our successes span industries, from supply chain automation for Swiss Gear to AI-enabled naval simulations with SAIC, and validating NBA draft picks for the Charlotte Hornets.

Profitable for more than half a decade, Invisible reached $134M in revenue and ranked as the number two fastest growing AI company on the 2024 Inc. 5000. In September 2025, we raised $100M in growth capital to accelerate our mission of making AI actually work in the enterprise and to advance our platform technology.

About the Role

We're looking for a Director of Engineering to set the technical strategy for Data Labs, the team that builds the benchmarking systems, data pipelines, and RL environments behind our AI training engagements. The frontier labs and enterprises we work with are changing how they train, evaluate, and deploy models every quarter. Your job is to see where that market is going and make sure Data Labs is built for it before our clients ask.

You'll decide which capabilities we invest in, which we standardize into platform, and which we leave to individual engagements. You'll track how training methods, evaluation practices, and data needs are shifting across the industry, and turn that into a technical roadmap and a point of view our commercial and research teams can sell against.

You'll lead a group of engineering managers, forward deployed engineers (FDEs), and senior ICs, and partner closely with applied research, product, and go-to-market leadership. This is a hands-on strategic role. You won't spend much time writing code, but you'll stay close enough to the technical work to make and defend hard architectural calls, and close enough to clients to know which calls matter.

What You'll Do

Technical Strategy & Roadmap

• Own the multi-year technical strategy for Data Labs, and translate it into a roadmap tied to where the AI training and evaluation market is heading.

• Decide where to build shared platform versus engagement-specific solutions, weighing reuse against team autonomy so platforms speed teams up rather than creating over-dependency.

• Set architectural direction for benchmarking infrastructure, data pipelines, and RL environments so they stay reproducible, portable across client deployments, and ready for the next generation of training methods.

• Anticipate technical shifts 6–18 months out, such as new post-training techniques, agentic evaluation, and synthetic data, and place the bets that keep Invisible ahead of them.

• Set expectations for how AI is used in design reviews and day-to-day engineering work.

Market Intelligence & Competitive Positioning

• Build a clear, current view of how frontier labs and enterprises are training, evaluating, and deploying models, and what that means for the data and infrastructure they'll need from us.

• Track the competitive landscape across AI data, evaluation, and RL environment providers, and help define where Invisible differentiates.

• Turn client signals, research developments, and market trends into investment recommendations for executive leadership.

• Partner with product and commercial teams to shape new offerings, pricing logic, and the technical story behind them.
