About the Role

We are looking for a Transformation Director to lead strategic, technology-driven transformation programs that redefine how we deliver value to our clients. This role bridges program leadership, business value realization, and product innovation, ensuring that we don't just meet requirements but reshape how technology drives outcomes.

You will oversee complex transformation programs, ensuring they are on track, aligned with strategic objectives, and delivering measurable business impact. As a forward-deployed leader, you'll also play a critical role in co-shaping our product capabilities, working hand-in-hand with Product, Engineering, and Business stakeholders to pioneer next-generation solutions.

• Partner with senior leadership to ensure stakeholder alignment and transparent communication of progress and challenges.

Business Value Realization

• Translate strategic goals into measurable business outcomes and ensure initiatives deliver tangible value.
• Assess solutions beyond functional compliance- evaluate whether they drive true automation, efficiency, and scalability (e.g., achieve straight-through processing rather than just "checking the box").

Product Innovation

• Act as the bridge between transformation programs and product development teams to influence the product roadmap based on real-world use cases.
• Identify opportunities for differentiation and scalability in client solutions that can evolve into productized capabilities.
• Bring a "pioneering" mindset, help define what the next generation of our platform and service offerings should look like.

About You

• 10+ years of experience in transformation, consulting, or program management within technology-driven organizations.
• Proven ability to lead cross-functional programs and manage senior stakeholders across business and technology.
• Strong understanding of enterprise technology, process automation, and business value measurement frameworks.
• Experience working closely with product and engineering teams to shape technology roadmaps.
• Excellent communication, stakeholder management, and strategic thinking skills.
• Entrepreneurial mindset with a bias for action and measurable results.
• Plus: Experience with AI/ML projects, automation, or a strong background in a specific industry vertical (e.g., finance, healthcare, manufacturing).

Compensation, Perks & Benefits

• High Impact: Directly influence the technical direction of our most critical customer projects and shape the future of our product.

• Cutting-Edge Tech: Work with the latest advancements in agentic AI and automation.

• Growth Opportunity: Be among the first 75 and join a rapidly scaling company with significant opportunities for professional development and leadership.
