Job description

About RealAvatar : RealAvatar is revolutionizing access to the world's leading thinkers through AI-powered avatars. By using our unique, cutting-edge Voice Stack technology built in collaboration with Andrew Ng's DeepLearning.AI, we enable natural, interactive conversations with digital avatars of experts, mentors and educators. Our avatars build relationships, share knowledge and inspire growth.

Role Overview : We are seeking a technologically savvy CEO to lead RealAvatar into its next phase of growth. The ideal candidate will possess a unique blend of deep AI technical expertise and leadership acumen, to move our cutting-edge voice technology forward, drive team execution, and expand our consumer-facing AI application. The CEO will be responsible for setting strategic direction, ensuring speedy execution, and ensuring alignment with our mission to scale human connection through authorized and authentic AI personas.

Key Responsibilities

Product Innovation : Oversee the development and enhancement of our AI-powered avatars, where improvements will come both from product innovation, mediated by advances in our deep tech in building compelling avatars as well as in the Voice Stack, to deliver authentic and engaging user experiences.
Strategic Leadership : Develop and execute the company's vision and strategic plan. Develop GTM plan, identify and onboard appropriate avatar partners. Position RealAvatar as the leader in AI-driven interactive experiences.
Team Development : Build and lead a high-performing team, fostering a culture of fast execution, customer obsession, and collaboration.
Fundraising : Secure funding from investors.

Requirements

Product Leadership : You have experience bringing products from 0 to 1—ideating, validating, and building in rapid iteration cycles. You think in terms of user needs and product-market fit, and you’re comfortable making decisions with incomplete information. You’re a collaborative problem-solver who works well with technical and design partners, and you thrive in ambiguous environments where speed and learning matter more than process. Strong user empathy, and experience in product design and development, particularly in consumer-facing applications.

Technical Fluency : You understand how to build with generative AI, whether by hands-on experience or through close collaboration with technical teams. You’re familiar with the capabilities and limitations of LLMs and related tools. Prior experience with avatars, voice applications, or real-time interaction products is a plus, though not required. You’re expected to stay up to speed with the latest in AI technologies and apply them creatively to new product ideas.

Execution & Strategic Thinking : You operate with a founder mindset—balancing big-picture vision with a bias toward action. You take ownership, thrive in ambiguity, and drive momentum across product, engineering, and design. You understand market dynamics, user behavior, and product positioning, and use that insight to guide decisions that create real value.

Leadership & Communication : You lead by influence and inspire teams around a shared vision. You communicate with clarity—whether aligning cross-functional teams, gathering user feedback, or articulating the product vision to partners, stakeholders, or collaborators. You combine high expectations with a supportive work environment that enables employees to do their best work.

Nice to Haves

Industry Connections : Established network within the AI and tech sectors.

Fundraising : Experience raising capital from venture capitalists.

Go to Market : Experience thinking through GTM strategy and being able to execute on the vision.
