About the Role
Madhive is seeking an AI Enablement Director to drive internal transformation by weaving AI into the fabric of how our teams work. This role is designed to lift the work our people do by shifting focus from manual drudgery to high-leverage strategic output. You will listen to functional needs, build load-bearing V1 automations, and partner with leaders to drive lasting adoption and measurable productivity gains across teams.
Responsibilities
- Design and ship AI-enabled workflows and cross-cutting tools for technical and non-technical teams.
- Establish fluency standards and practical benchmarks for AI usage, productivity, and organizational impact.
- Lead employee AI training and adoption programs in close partnership with the People and L&D teams.
- Develop a portfolio of internal load-bearing applications and AI integrations, transitioning successful solutions to functional owners for long-term operations.
- Serve as a change agent, leading adoption by visibly using tools and winning over stakeholders through measurable gains.
- Run discovery with functional leaders and define measurable success criteria for each workflow before building.
- Integrate automations with the systems teams already work in — CRM, ticketing, and workflow tools such as Salesforce, Jira, or equivalents — resolving data-readiness and permissions blockers so solutions are production-ready, not experimental.
- Drive adoption by building trust, reducing friction, and ensuring shipped solutions are actively used, with human review queues and audit trails where outputs need oversight.
Requirements
- 8-12 years of experience blending hands-on building with driving tool adoption.
- Proven track record of driving adoption of new ways of working across diverse teams with documented evidence of impact.
- Low-ego and highly collaborative; able to sit with function leaders to translate real business needs into load-bearing solutions.
- Grit in ambiguity and a rigorous approach to measurement.
- Frame work as elevation and capacity building, never headcount reduction.
- Ship to a reliability, latency, and observability bar appropriate for daily business use.
- Operate with high agency under ambiguity — scoping work, sequencing delivery, and removing blockers independently.
