AI at project44

We expect every project44 team member, regardless of role or function, to actively leverage AI in their day-to-day work.

Whether you're building product, serving customers, managing people, or running operations, AI is a tool you're expected to use with intent, curiosity, and judgment.

We don't expect everyone to be a data scientist.

We do expect everyone to be an intelligent user of AI: able to identify where it adds value, direct it effectively, evaluate outputs critically, and govern it responsibly.

We invest in our team's AI fluency because we believe it's a competitive advantage for every person at project44, not just our engineers

If you’re driven to solve meaningful problems, leverage AI to scale rapidly, drive impact daily, and be part of a high-performance team – we should talk.
