If you believe the best way to do your job hasn’t been invented yet, you’ll fit right in. Sr. Director, AI Finance & Legal Transformation The Role You will own the strategy and execution of AI integration across SharkNinja's finance organization (FP&A, accounting, internal audit, tax, investor relations) and legal organization (contract management, IP, regulatory compliance, litigation support). Multiple AI projects are already in flight across both functions. The challenge is not ambition -- it is that these efforts run in parallel without a single person connecting them, sequencing them, and driving them to completion. You will be that person: the dedicated, full-time owner who sits above individual projects, connects the dots, and surfaces the opportunities the teams are too close to see. You will be measured on adoption, speed, and measurable business impact. You report directly to the VP, Chief of Staff to the CEO, with a dotted line to the CFO and CLO.
