This role will focus on two core areas : driving AI-powered productivity across business functions—including Finance, HR, IT, Marketing, and Supply Chain—by developing and deploying scalable AI platforms and tools; and building a world-class enterprise business intelligence capability to deliver robust financial, operational, and strategic insights. The ideal candidate combines deep expertise in AI / ML and data architecture with a strong understanding of business operations and a proven ability to lead high-performing teams. This position is critical to shaping Zoox’s data strategy and delivering measurable business impact.

In This Role, You Will...

  • Lead the development and deployment of AI-powered platforms and tools that enhance productivity across core business functions such as Finance, HR, IT, Marketing, Procurement, and Supply Chain.
  • Identify, evaluate, and implement off-the-shelf AI agents to streamline operations, reduce costs, and accelerate business processes.
  • Architect and build a scalable enterprise business intelligence (BI) and analytics infrastructure to support high-quality financial, operational, and strategic reporting.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional leaders to translate business needs into data and AI solutions, ensuring alignment with organizational goals and priorities.
  • Manage and grow a high-performing team of AI, data, and analytics professionals, fostering innovation, operational excellence, and a data-driven culture.

Qualifications

  • Proven experience leading AI / ML initiatives and data-driven transformations in a complex, cross-functional business environment.
  • Strong technical expertise in AI / ML, data architecture, analytics platforms, and business intelligence tools (e.g., Snowflake, Tableau, SAP BW / 4HANA, Power BI, or similar).
  • Deep understanding of enterprise operations and processes across functions like Finance, Supply Chain, HR, and IT, with the ability to translate business needs into technical solutions.
  • Demonstrated success in building and managing high-performing technical teams, including AI engineers, data scientists, and BI analysts.
  • Excellent communication, stakeholder management, and strategic thinking skills, with a track record of influencing executive leadership and driving measurable business outcomes.
  • Bonus Qualifications

  • Experience implementing GenAI tools or Large Language Models (LLMs) in an enterprise setting to automate workflows, enhance decision-making, or improve employee productivity.
  • Base Salary Range : $363,000 - $436,000 a year. Compensation will vary based on geographic location and level. Leveling, as well as positioning within a level, is determined by a range of factors, including, but not limited to, a candidate's relevant years of experience, domain knowledge, and interview performance.

    Zoox also offers a comprehensive package of benefits, including paid time off, health insurance, long-term care insurance, long-term and short-term disability insurance, and life insurance.
