Sales Transformation Leader Jobs (NOW HIRING)

The Chief of Staff & AI Transformation Leader is a newly created executive role that sits at the intersection of strategic execution and enterprise AI adoption. Reporting directly to the CEO, this individual will act as a force multiplier for the executive team driving alignment on top company priorities, running the operating cadence of the business, and leading Avionte's AI transformation agenda across both internal operations and the company's product and customer experience.

This is a hybrid strategy-and-execution role for someone equally comfortable advising the CEO on organizational priorities and rolling up their sleeves to stand up AI tools, workflows, and governance across the company. The ideal candidate combines chief-of-staff rigor structured thinking, cross-functional influence, and flawless execution with genuine depth in applied AI and a track record of driving adoption at scale.
