 We're looking for a hands-on AI Adoption Specialist to help our Sales, Marketing, and Operations teams work smarter with AI. You'll report to our Director and SVP Information Technology and own the day-to-day execution of AI initiatives-finding bottlenecks, running pilots, training employees, and making sure AI tools actually get used and deliver results.

  </li>
  <li>
   Write prompts, build AI workflows, and QA outputs before rolling tools out to end users.
  </li>
  <li>
   Create training materials, run hands-on sessions, and support employees as they adopt new AI tools.
  </li>
  <li>
   Help maintain approved AI tools policy
  </li>
  <li>
   Monitor AI agent performance, token usage, and flag governance or compliance issues.
  </li>
  <li>
   Research new AI vendors and tools; coordinate demos and POC logistics.
  </li>
  <li>
   Map cross-departmental handoffs (Marketing &rarr; Sales &rarr; Ops) to find friction points AI can solve.
  </li>
  <li>
   Build a reusable playbook of templates, checklists, and best practices for future AI rollouts.
   <br/>
   <br/>
  </li>
 </ul>
