> ActivTrak · Austin, United States (Remote) · Full-time · Posted 2026-06-09

**Salary:** USD 200,000–250,000

**Workplace:** remote

**Department:** Business Operations

## Description

As the Director, AI Transformation, you'll own the strategy, execution and adoption of AI across ActivTrak. You'll lead a small team and serve as the connective tissue between the AI solutions we build and the employees who use them. This is a player-coach role: you'll set direction and represent AI transformation at the leadership level, while staying close enough to the work to build, test and iterate alongside your team.

### Key Responsibilities

Strategy & Roadmap:

-   Define and maintain the AI transformation roadmap, aligned to operational priorities across Revenue, Data, BI, and go-to-market functions
-   Establish OKRs for AI adoption, productivity impact, and tool ROI, and report progress to the senior leadership
-   Evaluate, recommend, and govern the AI tool stack, balancing capability, cost, and organizational readiness
-   Identify the highest-leverage AI use cases across business functions and sequence delivery based on impact and feasibility

Hands-On Delivery:

-   Build, prompt, and iterate on AI solutions directly by working in the tools
-   Design and deploy agentic AI workflows that automate multi-step processes across business functions, moving beyond single-prompt tools to systems that reason, plan and act
-   Work fluently with Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers to connect AI models to internal systems, data sources, and third-party tools, understanding how to configure, extend, and govern those integrations
-   Use AI coding tools (including Claude Code and GPT Codex) to accelerate solution development, automate scripts, and build internal tooling without requiring full engineering resources
-   Partner with the AI Admin on integrations, prompt libraries, and production readiness for new solutions
-   Lead proof-of-concept work on emerging AI capabilities, stress-testing tools before broader rollout
-   Bring GTM systems fluency to revenue-adjacent use cases, including CRM automation, pipeline intelligence, and sales workflow optimization across the GTM stack

Team Leadership & Cross-Functional Influence:

-   Manage and develop a small team,  setting clear scope, priorities, and success metrics for each role
-   Create a high-trust, high-output team culture grounded in curiosity, iteration, and business impact
-   Recruit and onboard future team members as function grows

Governance & Compliance:

-   Own the AI governance framework for the organization. Define policies for acceptable use, data handling, model selection and vendor risk across all AI tools and workflows
-   Establish guardrails for agentic AI systems, ensuring automated workflows have appropriate human-in-the-loop checkpoints, audit trails, and rollback procedures
-   Partner with Legal, Security, and IT to ensure AI integrations meet data privacy, compliance and information security standards (including SOC 2, GDPR, or customer data handling requirements)
-   Stay current on the evolving regulatory landscape around AI and proactively surface business implications before they become blockers
-   Maintain a clear inventory of all AI tools, integrations, and MCP connections in use across the organization, with documented risk ratings and review cadences

Cross-functional influence

-   Serve as the primary point of contact for all AI needs across ActivTrak — any team, any function, any use case routes through you first
-   Own and run the AI steering cadence: facilitate cross-functional meetings with business leads, set the agenda, drive decisions and ensure follow-through on commitments
-   Lead up effectively. You're comfortable presenting roadmaps, risks and recommendations to senior leadership, and you know how to frame tradeoffs in business terms, not technical ones
-   Influence without authority across peer functions. Build a case and bring people along
-   Represent the AI Transform function in leadership forums and communicate progress, priorities and risks

## Requirements

We're looking for an AI transformation leader with a genuine track record of building and shipping AI solutions, not just evaluating them.

-   7 years in operations, RevOps, GTM strategy or technology transformation, with at least 2 years managing people or leading a function
-   Demonstrated hands-on experience implementing AI solutions in a business context 
-   Fluency with modern AI platforms and the GTM stack: LLMs, no-code/low-code automation, CRM AI features, sequencing tools, enrichment platforms and attribution systems
-   Working knowledge of agentic AI concepts and architectures. You understand how to design systems where AI models take multi-step actions, not just answer questions
-   Familiarity with MCP (Model Context Protocol) or equivalent integration patterns for connecting AI to live data sources and internal tooling
-   Hands-on experience with AI coding tools such as Claude Code, GPT Codex or similar. You are comfortable using these tools to build scripts, automate workflows and accelerate internal development
-   Demonstrated understanding of AI governance and compliance considerations: acceptable use policies, data privacy, vendor risk, audit trails and human oversight requirements
-   Active learner who stays current on the fast-moving AI landscape — new model releases, emerging frameworks and evolving best practices — and translates that into actionable guidance for the business
-   SaaS company experience strongly preferred
-   Clear, confident communicator who can translate technical concepts for non-technical stakeholders and vice versa
-   Change management intuition. You understand the hardest part of AI transformation is behavioral, not technical
-   High ownership orientation. You make calls, iterate and take accountability for outcomes

## Benefits

### Work Environment

-   Competitive compensation and benefits
-   Minimal travel.
-   Limited physical demands.

This is an incredible opportunity to build something from the ground up at a work intelligence company that's defining how organizations understand people, applications, and AI tools.
