CONFIDENTIAL Scovai, a trailblazer in the Talent Acquisition & Recruiting sector, is redefining how organizations build and manage their workforce through an intelligent, AI-powered talent platform that spans the entire employee lifecycle. As part of a confidential search, Scovai is seeking an exceptional AI Engineering Director to join their Toronto-based team in a hybrid capacity. This is a rare opportunity to shape the technical vision of a company at the forefront of transparent, auditable AI—where algorithmic precision meets human judgment to transform the future of work.
As AI Engineering Director, you will own and drive Scovai's AI/ML strategy end-to-end, leading the design and delivery of scalable AI infrastructure, LLM-powered features, and MLOps pipelines that underpin the platform's core capabilities. You will build, mentor, and scale high-performing engineering teams, partnering closely with product, data, and business stakeholders to translate ambitious roadmaps into production-grade AI systems. Your technical leadership will directly influence how intelligent agents are developed, deployed, and continuously improved across the platform.

If you thrive in high-growth environments, are passionate about responsible AI, and want to leave a lasting mark on an industry being fundamentally reimagined, Scovai offers the ideal stage.
