Reimaging how we work: Meet the AI Sharks From co-op to one of SharkNinja's first AI Sharks — meet Ahmed Saeed. 🦈 Ahmed joined SharkNinja in 2024 and is now an Applied AI Analytics Associate — and one of the newest members of AI Sharks. AI Sharks are a fearless, AI-first group embedded in the Office of the CEO, automating the processes slowing us down and reimagining them entirely using the dynamic tools we already have. How does it work? Leaders bring a use case to the Sharks and experts get mobilized to execute it. From synthesizing competitive intelligence to automating time-consuming workflows — AI Sharks are tackling it all. Hit play to see what it looks like when bold ideas meet real impact.
Every generation enters the workforce facing a defining shift. Today, that shift is AI — and for early career talent, the opportunity to make an impact has never been bigger. At SharkNinja, we see it every day. Fresh perspectives. Fearless thinking. People who aren’t limited by “how it’s always been done.” The next generation of talent sees possibilities others don’t — and they move fast to solve them. We saw it firsthand during our recent AI Hack Week when students joined our teams to tackle real business challenges alongside SharkNinja innovators. We see it in our co-ops, interns, and recent graduates who are already helping shape what’s next across our business. The people entering the workforce today aren’t just future leaders — they’re driving innovation right now. That’s why we’re investing in the next generation of AI-forward talent ready to challenge convention, push boundaries, and build outrageously extraordinary solutions. This year, SharkNinja is hiring 200 early career professionals focused on using AI to solve complex problems, rethink consumer experiences, and help disrupt entire markets.
That's why we created Jailbreak EDU. An extension of our Jailbreak LIVE Hack Week, it brought 35 undergrad and grad students from across the country to take on the most exciting challenges in front of us, all with the power of AI. What they presented was extraordinary. The creativity, the rigor, the passion — and most importantly, the ideas that will shape what comes next. We keep pushing because there's always more to build. These students proved it. Ready to be part of what's next?
We've always believed that culture is a competitive advantage, and Jailbreak LIVE is proof. Last week, SharkNinja teams from around the world came together for our most ambitious hack yet. The energy, the urgency, the refusal to accept that something is impossible: it showed up in every room, on every team, across every time zone. In one short week, teams made months of progress and tackled problems head-on. People who had never worked together found shared challenges, built new relationships across functions and regions, and solved problems side by side that they didn't even know they had in common. Jailbreak LIVE isn't something we look back on — it's something we keep building.
Ten years ago, SharkNinja came together for our first company-wide hack. We pushed past our comfort zones, we challenged each other, and we built on ideas we never would have found on our own. We accomplished six months of work in a week. Today we kick off Jailbreak LIVE - our most ambitious hack yet. Our entire global team is suspending business as usual and going all in together. Because when we ignite the full power of this team, the results are extraordinary. Learn more!

We're continuing to grow our EMEA teams in Battersea and beyond.
Between the hustle and energy of NYC, Ross Richardson and Francois Nguyen share a simple truth: inspiration is everywhere. Compelling design solves real problems. Performance is essential. Simplicity is expected. What sets great products apart is how they make people feel. Emotion is everything. As we sharpen our global design focus at SharkNinja, 2026 represents a bold new chapter, a radical evolution in design and form factor. Excited for what’s ahead 💫
SharkNinja closed its strongest year to date. Q4 earnings reflected 18% net sales growth, with full-year growth of 16% to $6.4B, marking eleven consecutive quarters of double-digit topline growth. 💥 Across every channel, geography, and generation, we showed up where consumers were, pairing consumer-problem-solving innovation with compelling storytelling and partnerships with cultural icons like Tom Brady, Kevin Hart, and Heidi Klum to bring the SharkNinja brand to life. At the heart of it all is our people who embody a bias for speed and action and work relentlessly to solve consumer problems better than anyone else. Thank you to our teams around the world whose passion and creativity continue to propel SharkNinja forward.
