About The Role

SharkNinja is integrating AI across Product Development and Engineering as a structural shift in how teams work, design, and deliver. This is not a pilot program. It is a fundamental change to how work gets done, and it requires a people strategy built specifically for AI-era organizations.

This newly created role leads that transformation. The Senior Manager, People Culture Innovation, AI Org Transformation is the embedded workforce strategy leader for PD E, focused on translating AI capability into practical implications for roles, workflows, job architecture, and operating models. The work spans AI workforce planning, org design, work redesign, and change enablement.

This is not a Human Resources Business Partner (HRBP) role. It requires HR fluency, but the focus is on how AI changes work, teams, and structure, not day-to-day business partner support. The right person brings structure to ambiguity, earns credibility with technical leaders, and delivers recommendations that drive decisions.

What You'll Own AI Workforce Strategy Transformation Planning Define the people strategy for AI adoption across PD E, covering workforce implications, role evolution, capability gaps, and adoption sequencing Build and maintain an AI transformation roadmap from a workforce perspective, aligned to SharkNinja's enterprise AI initiative and commercial priorities Monitor GenAI and agentic AI trends and translate them into actionable workforce strategy: which roles are affected, in what timeframe, and what SharkNinja should do about it Develop KPIs and measurement frameworks to track AI adoption, workforce readiness, productivity impact, and organizational effectiveness.
