AI Product Engineer - COC

Aspire Software is looking for an AI Product Engineer to join our team in Lebanon.

Here is a little window into our company: Aspire Software operates and manages wholly owned software companies, providing mission-critical solutions across multiple verticals. By implementing industry best practices, Aspire delivers a time sensitive integration process, and the operation of a decentralized model has allowed it to become a hub for creating rapid growth by reinvesting in its portfolio.

We're looking for a killer AI Product Manager — someone highly driven and entrepreneurial who can take AI-powered products from idea to revenue in a real-world, hardware-meets-software environment. This role is not about checking boxes for years of experience – it's about energy, ambition, and the ability to execute. We're looking for someone who thrives in fast-paced, high-growth environments, is passionate about AI innovation, and has the vision to turn ideas into scalable products.

Key Responsibilities

What your day will look like:

AI Product and Technology Leadership

• Own the AI product roadmap across the ecosystem — from dynamic pricing and guest personalization to AI-powered booking and operational intelligence
• Build a proof of concept (PoC) within a few weeks to validate AI-driven ideas quickly
• Oversee the development, deployment, and commercialization of AI-driven solutions across our software platforms and connected hardware devices
• Work closely with AI engineers, hardware teams, and customers to refine solutions for real-world impact in high-volume, guest-facing environments

Business Leadership

• Develop and execute the product strategy, ensuring alignment with company goals and driving growth of AI offerings within the leisure and entertainment vertical
• Execute against a provided playbook, building an initial proof of concept and scaling once validated

Operational Excellence

• Build and optimize workflows for customer onboarding, support, and internal processes to ensure scalability and efficiency
• Establish metrics and KPIs to measure and improve performance across the product portfolio

Customer and Market Insights

• Conduct market research and competitive analysis across the cashless payments and venue technology landscape to refine strategy and offerings
• Engage directly with operators — parks, venues, FECs — to ensure customer feedback is integrated into product development and iteration

Team Building and Operations

• Foster a high-performance culture that encourages agility, execution, and innovation
• Scale operations while maintaining a startup mentality – fast, lean, and customer-drive

Requirements

• You move fast and get things done – You don't wait for perfect conditions – you make things happen
• You thrive in uncertainty – You see ambiguity as an opportunity, not a challenge
• You are passionate about AI and its real-world impact – Whether technical or business-driven, you understand how AI is shaping the future of payments and guest experiences
• You are a builder – You love creating from scratch – whether it's teams, products, or business models
• You are relentless – Scaling a product is not a straight line, and you have the grit to push through
• Strong understanding of AI/ML technologies and their commercial applications
• Experience with hardware products is a strong asset – familiarity with embedded systems, IoT devices, payment terminals, RFID/NFC, or connected hardware-software ecosystems will set you apart
• Experience in payments, fintech, or venue/attractions technology is a plus
• An entrepreneurial background or experience building/scaling a product, startup, or high-growth venture is a plus
• Ability to lead and inspire teams in a fast-moving, high-growth environment
• No strict experience requirements – we're looking for the right mindset, energy, and ability to execute
• At least a Bachelor's degree in Computer Engineering or Electrical Engineering (an asset), or Artificial Intelligence, Computer Science, Business, or a similar related discipline
• Being fluent in the English language, written and verbal, is essential
• Must work US Central Hours

Why Join Us?
