AI Product Strategist

At NiCE, AI Product Strategists lead from the front. This means maintaining direct engagement with customers and partners, deeply understanding real-world business challenges, and translating those needs into innovative solutions.

NiCE is an AI-first technology company, and AI Product Strategists are expected to actively embrace modern AI tools in their daily work — using them to accelerate discovery, prototype new ideas, and rapidly validate solutions with real users.

The AI Product Strategist plays a critical role in shaping the NiCE product and solution portfolio by developing market and product requirements based on customer insights, competitive intelligence, technical considerations, and evolving market trends. This role defines rollout strategies for bringing products to market, develops product positioning, packaging, and pricing strategies, and champions the product launch process across NiCE and with potential customers.

As part of NiCE’s AI-first culture, AI Product Strategists leverage modern AI development tools to rapidly test ideas and validate product concepts. This includes the ability to create early working prototypes using AI-assisted development tools (sometimes referred to as “vibe coding”) that allow teams and customers to interact with real functionality during early design stages.
