SALARY: $106,400 - $126,350, bonus and long-term incentive eligible
ROLE SUMMARY:
We are seeking a Technical Product Owner to lead the product execution of EDGE.AI. This role sits at the intersection of AI engineering, data science, and commercial business strategy, serving as the connection between highly technical teams, AB central strategy, and sales reps in the field.
This person will ensure that Anheuser-Busch strategy is accurately represented in the AI engine, clearly expressed in the user experience, and ultimately delivers meaningful, measurable impact in the market.
About EDGE:
EDGE (Every Day Great Execution) is Anheuser-Busch’s most critical frontline sales program. EDGE translates AB’s commercial strategy into clear, actionable priorities for more than 10,000 frontline sales representatives across the United States.
Through EDGE’s planning portal, Commercial Directors across the country define monthly sales priorities. Those priorities are then operationalized and delivered directly to sales reps’ handheld devices, guiding what to execute in each individual account. For example, a convenience store in North Dakota may need to expand Bud Light distribution, while a neighborhood bar in Illinois may focus on Super Bowl displays.
In 2026, EDGE is entering its next evolution: EDGE.AI. By introducing AI-driven decisioning, we are personalizing sales strategy down to the individual account level.
