AIプロダクトリード (日本) | Product Lead, AI (Japan)

Lead the Future of AI Execution and Scale at BJAK

At BJAK, we’re on a mission to become Southeast Asia’s leading digital financial platform — and we’re moving fast.
Our goal is simple but ambitious: to make insurance and financial services easier, faster, and more accessible for millions of people.
AI is at the heart of this transformation.

As Product Lead, AI, you’ll work directly with the Founder and leadership team to translate bold ideas into execution, and execution into measurable business impact. This is a high-impact, hands-on leadership role for a product expert based in Japan who’s excited to shape and scale AI initiatives across multiple countries.

This is not a strategy-only position. We’re looking for someone who thrives in dynamic environments, takes ownership end-to-end, and has the technical and operational depth to deliver meaningful outcomes.

• Transform the CEO’s AI vision into clear, actionable product priorities.

• Drive execution of AI and automation initiatives across the company.

• Act as the central hub of coordination for AI-driven projects.

• Solve complex product and operational challenges with speed and structure.

• Scale the business by embedding AI into core company processes.

• Collaborate closely with the CEO and leadership to define, track, and deliver AI initiatives and OKRs.

• Own end-to-end implementation of AI and tech projects — from planning to launch.

• Identify operational gaps and implement AI/automation solutions that enable rapid scaling.

• Roll up your sleeves to design, test, and deploy AI-driven workflows and tools.

• Ensure seamless integration of AI systems into existing business processes.

• Work closely with engineering, product, and operations teams to achieve measurable impact.

• Coordinate AI initiatives across departments to maintain alignment and execution momentum.

• Facilitate discussions, decision forums, and workshops to keep projects moving forward.

• Partner with department heads to identify execution blockers and drive solutions effectively.

• Take ownership of AI-related initiatives that don’t have a clear “home.”

• Lead pilot programs and new product initiatives from ideation to execution.

• Build scalable systems, dashboards, and processes to support long-term AI adoption.

• Treat the company’s success as your own, taking deep responsibility for outcomes.

• Enjoy working in fast-paced, evolving environments with shifting priorities.

• Take pride in delivering tangible results, not just ideas.

• Operate with integrity, intensity, and a low-ego, solution-first mindset.

• Have a builder’s mentality: hands-on, resourceful, and execution-focused.

• Communicate clearly and confidently, even under pressure.

• Remain calm in chaos, solve problems independently, and figure things out without a playbook.

• Are willing to push beyond typical hours when mission-critical projects demand it.

• Around 5 years of experience in product management, engineering, or cross-functional leadership in a high-growth environment.

• A proven track record of hands-on project delivery in tech, AI, or digital platforms.

• Strong background in Computer Science, IT, or a related technical field (preferred).

• Excellent problem-solving skills and the ability to turn vision into execution.

• Experience working directly with executives on high-stakes initiatives.

• Mature judgment and strong communication skills in complex or high-pressure situations.

• Bonus: Experience in fintech, AI platforms, or founder-led companies.

• Location: Based in Japan (remote), collaborating closely with regional teams.

We are a lean, high-performance team that values speed, clarity, and ownership over hierarchy.
Everyone contributes meaningfully, takes initiative, and is expected to think like an owner.

If you’re hungry to grow, thrive in ambitious environments, and care deeply about building impactful products, you’ll fit right in.

• Above-market compensation for top-tier performers.

• A high-trust role with direct access to executive decision-making.

• The opportunity to lead and shape cross-functional AI initiatives with real impact.

• Career growth into senior leadership roles (e.g., GM, COO, or other strategic functions).

• A mission-driven team with a flat, no-politics culture that values action and accountability.
