Your mission

At 1KOMMA5°, we are seeking an exceptional Lead AI Innovation & Adoption who combines deep technical expertise with sharp execution.

• Lead the implementation of new AI-powered processes with speed, clarity, and precision ensuring stakeholder alignment, documentation and tangible business impact (e.g. efficiency gains, cost savings, quality improvements)
• Partner with department heads to drive cross-functional AI adoption and act as a trusted advisor for process change
• Act as a bridge between AI and the business explaining complex capabilities to non-technical stakeholders, managing expectations and securing buy-in at all levels
• Equip teams with the skills to confidently use AI tools by offering everything from workshops to sharing best practices

• Automation & cloud platforms (e.g. GitHub Actions, Terraform, GCP)
• Vector databases, RAG, and SaaS AI tools (e.g. Notion AI, Copilot, Supernormal)

Your profile

• Experience driving measurable business outcomes through AI in real-world operational settings (e.g. cost reduction, time savings, quality improvements)
• The judgment to separate hype from value staying up to date with AI trends while choosing tools and solutions for their practical impact
• Excellent communication skills and the ability to translate AI capabilities into business value for non-technical stakeholders
• Experience rethinking and rolling out business processes from fast prototyping to scaled adoption across multiple teams or locations
• A high degree of self-direction, resilience, and the ability to navigate ambiguity with urgency and focus
