Role Summary
Xperi is expanding its AI Strategy & Operations team to accelerate measurable business value from AI. This role sits within a small, high-impact team operating with a startup mindset, where team members are expected to work collaboratively across a wide range of initiatives and contribute wherever needed.
The Senior Manager, AI Process Transformation will initially operate as an individual contributor, responsible for leading AI-enabled process transformation from discovery through implementation. This includes identifying inefficient workflows, redesigning them using AI and automation, and delivering measurable improvements in cost, speed, quality, and scalability.
This role is execution-focused, with success defined by implemented solutions and measurable business impact.
Core Responsibilities
Own end-to-end transformation of business processes, including discovery, mapping, redesign, AI enablement, implementation support, and measurable ROI delivery.
Example areas include (but are not limited to) finance, accounting, FP&A, sales operations, and legal workflows, particularly those that are data-intensive, spreadsheet-driven, or reliant on manual processes.
Process Discovery & Diagnosis
Map current-state workflows including inputs, decisions, handoffs, systems, and manual interventions.
Identify inefficiencies, bottlenecks, data fragmentation, and quality gaps that limit performance or scalability.
Prioritize opportunities based on business impact, feasibility, and ability to scale across teams.
AI-Enabled Process Redesign
Define future-state workflows embedding AI capabilities such as copilots, agents, automation, analytics, and improved data access.
Determine where AI should augment human work, automate tasks, or introduce new decision-support capabilities.
Design practical, implementable workflows that fit within Xperi's tools, systems, and operating model.
ROI & KPI Ownership
Define baseline performance and design appropriate KPIs for each initiative based on the specific process being improved.
Develop business cases that quantify expected impact, and implement measurement frameworks to track outcomes after deployment.
KPIs should be tailored to each workflow, but may include metrics such as cycle time reduction, labor savings, error reduction, throughput improvement, or financial impact.
Ensure that each initiative has a clear measurement plan and that results are validated and sustained post-implementation.
Implementation Partnership
Work closely with program managers, engineers, IT, and business stakeholders to move initiatives from concept to implementation.
Own process design, business requirements, and outcomes, while collaborating with technical teams responsible for building and deploying solutions.
Ensure implementations align with intended workflow improvements and deliver expected business results.
Technical & Business Alignment
Act as a business operator with strong technical fluency.
Understand AI concepts such as LLMs, agents, APIs, MCPs, and connectors, and be able to engage effectively with engineering teams.
Bring a business analyst mindset to understanding tools and workflows, without being responsible for solution architecture or implementation.
Change Management & Influence
Drive adoption and sustained use of redesigned workflows through stakeholder engagement, communication, training, and practical enablement resources.
Operate as a self-starter who can make progress across teams through credibility, strong problem-solving, and influence, rather than relying on formal authority.
Required Qualifications
• 8+ years of experience in process transformation, business operations, consulting, business analysis, or related roles
• Demonstrated experience leading process improvement initiatives from discovery through implementation
• Strong ability to document current-state workflows and design future-state processes
• Proven ability to deliver measurable operational or financial improvements
• Strong analytical and quantitative skills, particularly in data-heavy environments
• Experience working in cross-functional teams involving business, engineering, and IT stakeholders

• Ability to drive progress and outcomes across teams without direct authority
Preferred Qualifications
• Experience in finance, accounting, FP&A, sales operations, legal, or other data-intensive business functions
• Experience applying AI, automation, or analytics to improve workflows
• Familiarity with enterprise systems such as Salesforce, NetSuite, Jira, Confluence, Microsoft 365, or similar platforms
• Background in Lean, Six Sigma, business process reengineering, or operational excellence methodologies
• Experience working with spreadsheet-heavy or manual operational workflows
