- Embed AI capabilities into workflows across the organization
- Identify new use cases and opportunities to drive efficiency and impact
Partner Across the Business
- Work closely with functional leaders to identify opportunities to improve how the business runs

- Act as a key partner in driving scale without increasing headcount
What We’re Looking For:
- 12+ years of experience across platforms, systems, or operations
- Deep experience with enterprise systems (Salesforce, NetSuite, HRIS, etc.)
- Strong understanding of end-to-end business workflows
- Experience driving system optimization and platform transformation
- Experience with data, reporting, or AI-enabled systems preferred
- Creative problem solver with the ability to take ambiguous business challenges, bring structure, and drive scalable solutions
- Strong operator with a bias toward action
- Ability to operate both strategically and hands-on
- Strong cross-functional leadership and communication skills
What Success Looks Like:
- Systems are fully utilized and aligned to business workflows
- Reduction in manual processes and operational friction
- Strong data visibility and decision-making across the organization
- AI platform is embedded into workflows and driving measurable impact
- Scalable operations without proportional headcount growth
