  • Maintain a roadmap and prioritized backlog of operational improvement and AI-enabled projects, ensuring progress, resourcing, and measurable impact.
  • Partner with leaders across the organization to identify inefficiencies and bottlenecks in business operations, then design and drive initiatives that improve speed, quality, and scalability.
  • Plan and lead training and communication programs that drive adoption of new tools and processes. Build trust and enthusiasm around continuous improvement.
  • Support strong operational governance, ensuring transformation initiatives follow ethical, data, and compliance standards.
  • Track adoption, efficiency gains, and business outcomes. Report progress and insights to leadership.

What You’ll Bring

  • Expertise in project planning, delivery, and stakeholder alignment.
  • Experience diving deep into technical details while maintaining a high-level view of program status.
  • Strong understanding of SaaS operations, data, AI and automation technologies.
  • Proven ability to influence across teams and communicate clearly with technical and business audiences.
  • Fluency in tools like SalesForce, Clay, Zapier/Make/Glean/N8N, Retool, Intercom, PlanHat, or similar
  • Experience defining KPIs, managing change, and presenting results to senior leadership.
  • Data-driven, detail-oriented, and comfortable working autonomously.

What Makes You Stand Out

  • Master’s degree in Business, Information Systems, or a related field.
  • Experience in SaaS or B2B tech leading operational or digital transformation.
  • Certifications such as PMP, PMI-ACP, or Prosci.
  • Familiarity with process improvement and automation frameworks (Lean, Six Sigma, AI/ML tools).
  • A proven track record of driving scalable change and fostering innovation across diverse teams.
