About the Team

AI Engineering is StubHub’s AI Center of Excellence, responsible for building and operating the shared infrastructure, platforms, frameworks, and engineering foundations that enable teams across the company to use AI effectively and safely. The team’s mission is to make StubHub an AI-first company by turning AI into a reliable force multiplier for employees and, ultimately, the customers they serve.

The team works across the AI technology stack, from foundational platform capabilities and reusable frameworks to end-to-end AI-powered solutions. This includes building the systems that allow teams to develop, evaluate, deploy, and operate AI capabilities reliably at scale, as well as solving high-value problems directly where AI can materially improve productivity, quality, or operational efficiency.

AI Engineering serves teams across StubHub. In some cases, the team builds and owns AI solutions end to end; in others, it provides shared platforms, reusable capabilities, technical guidance, and engineering partnership that enable teams to build effectively themselves. The goal is not simply to introduce more AI tools, but to create durable capabilities that multiply the impact of teams throughout the company.

Why This Role Matters

AI is becoming an increasingly important part of how StubHub builds products and operates its business. Realizing its potential requires more than experimentation: it requires strong engineering leadership capable of turning emerging technology into reliable systems, focusing investment on the highest-leverage opportunities, and helping a talented engineering team execute effectively.
