Vice President, AI Strategy & Transformation

OKX · Hong Kong, Hong Kong SAR

CEO Office Singapore Posted Apr 14, 2026

Who We Are

At OKX, we believe that the future will be reshaped by crypto, and ultimately contribute to every individual's freedom.

OKX is a leading crypto exchange, and the developer of OKX Wallet, giving millions access to crypto trading and decentralized crypto applications (dApps). OKX is also a trusted brand by hundreds of large institutions seeking access to crypto markets. We are safe and reliable, backed by our Proof of Reserves.

Across our multiple offices globally, we are united by our core principles: We Before Me, Do the Right Thing, and Get Things Done. These shared values drive our culture, shape our processes, and foster a friendly, rewarding, and diverse environment for every OK-er.

About the Opportunity

We are seeking a VP of AI Strategy & Transformation — a hands-on technical leader who combines deep AI expertise with the strategic vision and executive influence to drive AI adoption across every business unit. This is not a research role or a traditional engineering management position. We need someone who has personally built and shipped production AI systems, understands the frontier of foundation models and agentic AI, and can translate that expertise into company-wide transformation.

The ideal candidate is, first and foremost, a deeply technical AI practitioner — someone who has architected and deployed AI systems at scale, and who can channel that credibility into driving AI adoption across every function of the organization. Not a theorist, not a people-manager-only — a builder-leader who ships and who makes others ship.

What You’ll Be Doing

1. Company AI Strategy & Transformation

Own the company’s AI roadmap end-to-end — from foundation model selection to business-unit-specific deployment plans:

Define and continuously refine the enterprise AI strategy, aligning it to revenue goals, product differentiation, and operational efficiency targets.
Conduct rigorous build-vs-buy-vs-partner analysis for foundation models, AI tooling, inference infrastructure, and data platforms.
Establish an AI governance framework covering model risk, data privacy, bias mitigation, and regulatory compliance across jurisdictions.
Serve as the primary AI advisor to the CEO and executive leadership team; translate frontier AI developments into actionable business implications.
Build and maintain a rolling 6/12/24-month AI transformation roadmap with clear milestones, investment thresholds, and go/no-go decision points.
Identify and evaluate strategic AI acquisition, investment, and partnership opportunities.

2. System Building & Technical Execution

Architect and deliver production-grade AI systems that create measurable business impact — not just prototypes:

Lead the architecture of LLM-powered applications including RAG systems, agentic workflows, fine-tuning pipelines, and prompt engineering frameworks at enterprise scale.
Design and implement AI-native infrastructure: model serving, automated evaluation, A/B testing frameworks, version control for prompts and models, and continuous monitoring for quality and drift.
Build and optimize AI agent systems, multi-model orchestration, tool-use chains, and autonomous workflow engines that solve real business problems end-to-end.
Build robust evaluation and benchmarking systems for AI outputs — measuring hallucination rates, task completion accuracy, latency, safety, and end-user satisfaction.
Personally prototype and review critical AI system designs; maintain hands-on technical credibility with the engineering team.

3. Organizational AI Enablement & Adoption

Drive AI adoption across every business unit — making AI a core competency for the entire organization, not just the engineering team:

Design and execute a company-wide AI literacy program segmented by role: executive leadership, product managers, engineers, operations, customer-facing teams, and support functions.
Create internal AI tooling, templates, and playbooks that make it radically easy for every business unit to leverage AI capabilities (prompt libraries, no-code/low-code AI interfaces, internal copilots, AI-assisted workflows).
Establish an AI Center of Excellence that serves as the hub for best practices, reusable components, and cross-functional AI project incubation.
Implement a structured AI use-case intake and prioritization process: partner with each business unit to identify high-ROI AI opportunities, scope them properly, and execute with embedded AI support.
Build an AI talent strategy: define hiring profiles for AI engineers and applied AI roles, design technical interview processes, and develop retention programs for top AI talent.
Foster a culture of responsible AI experimentation: psychological safety to try and fail fast, coupled with rigorous post-mortems and knowledge sharing across BUs.

What We Look For In You

10+ years in AI / deep learning, with at least 5 years in a senior leadership role (Director+ or equivalent at a top-tier tech company, high-growth startup, or leading AI lab).
Demonstrated track record of shipping production AI systems that directly impacted business outcomes at scale (revenue, engagement, efficiency).
Deep expertise across the modern AI stack: large language models, transformer architectures, RAG, fine-tuning, RLHF/DPO, prompt engineering, and agentic AI frameworks.
Strong publication record, open-source contributions, or recognized thought leadership in the AI community (conference talks, technical blog posts, courses, or widely-adopted tools).
Exceptional communication skills: ability to present complex technical concepts to board-level audiences and translate business needs into technical specifications.
Advanced degree (MS or PhD) in Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence, Statistics, or a related quantitative field.

Nice to Haves

Experience in fintech, crypto/blockchain, or regulated industries with complex compliance requirements.
Hands-on experience building AI-native products in consumer-facing, high-throughput environments (millions of daily active users).
Track record of driving company-wide AI adoption initiatives — not just team-level, but organization-wide cultural and process transformation.
Experience building or contributing to open-source AI tools, frameworks, or educational content adopted by the broader community.
Familiarity with AI regulatory landscapes across multiple jurisdictions (US, EU AI Act, APAC frameworks).
Published author or recognized educator in AI (books, widely-read technical blogs, MOOCs, or workshops).

Perks & Benefits

Competitive total compensation package
L&D programs and Education subsidy for employees' growth and development
Various team building programs and company events
Wellness and meal allowances
Comprehensive healthcare schemes for employees and dependants
More that we love to tell you along the process!

About the Role

We are looking for a highly capable Senior Strategy PMO / Project Manager to join our CEO Office / Strategy PMO team.

This role goes beyond traditional project management — you will operate at the intersection of strategy, execution, and organizational scaling, partnering closely with senior leadership to drive high-impact, cross-functional initiatives across the company.

This is a high-exposure role suited for candidates who thrive in fast-paced environments and are comfortable navigating ambiguity, complexity, and executive-level expectations.

Partner with senior leadership to translate high-level strategies into executable roadmaps and delivery mechanisms.
Establish and continuously refine project governance frameworks to improve execution efficiency, visibility, and accountability across teams.
Identify cross-team bottlenecks and systemic inefficiencies, and drive structural solutions rather than one-off fixes.

Support and accelerate company-wide AI transformation initiatives, including:
- Driving AI adoption across product and operational workflows
- Coordinating cross-functional AI pilots and scaling best practices
- Building execution frameworks for AI-enabled delivery models
Provide clear executive-level updates on progress, risks, and trade-offs, enabling fast and informed decision-making.
Act as a force multiplier for leadership by driving alignment, execution clarity, and organizational velocity.

5–10 years of experience in strategy PMO, program management, or high-impact project delivery roles.
Strong experience driving complex, cross-functional initiatives in fast-paced environments such as:
- Top-tier internet companies
- Global tech companies or scale-ups
- Fintech, trading, or platform-heavy organizations
Proven track record of delivering technically complex programs (e.g., trading systems, risk controls, user safety, growth platforms, infra-heavy initiatives).
Strong systems thinking — able to identify root causes and design scalable solutions.
Excellent execution skills with a bias toward action and outcomes.
Strong communication and stakeholder management skills, including experience working with senior executives.
High ownership mindset with the ability to operate independently in ambiguous environments.

Preferred Qualifications

Background in technically intensive domains such as:
- Trading infrastructure or financial systems
- User risk control systems or user growth
- Platform architecture
Experience in crypto, fintech, or global-scale platforms.
Experience driving AI adoption in product, engineering, QA, or operational workflows.
Bilingual (English + Mandarin) to collaborate effectively across global teams.
