Job description
Head of AI Ops
About the Position
Coverflex exists to make compensation work for everyone. Pay is still rigid, fragmented, and hard to feel. We turn compensation into choice - one platform, one card, one app - for benefits, meal allowance, insurance, and more.
Our platform is simple for HR and meaningful for employees. We provide choice, smarter compensation tools, and empowerment.
Responsibilities
- Lead AI operations, ensuring efficient use and impact of AI investments across departments.
- Build the first honest picture of AI at Coverflex: spend by tool and team, what runs in production, who depends on it, and what it returns.
- Set a priority order across departments and hold it, including a "not yet" to at least one senior stakeholder, with a reason they accept.
- Get something live in at least three departments that the department itself now runs.
- Make what already exists findable and reusable, so the second team to need something doesn't rebuild it.
- Agree a written governance line with Engineering, Security, and Legal: what needs a guardrail, what needs review, and what teams can do freely.
Requirements
-
Must-haves (evidence, not years)
- Led AI or automation adoption across a whole company, beyond one team, and can show what changed because of it.
- Build with AI tools yourself (agents, skills, prompts, orchestration platforms), and other people use what you built.
- Owned a budget or an investment case and defended it to executives with evidence.
- Set priorities across departments that don't report to you, and made them stick.
- Know AI governance and risk well enough to draw the line and hold it: data handling, access, vendor review, and audit trails.
- Measure: a baseline before you change something, and proof afterwards.
- Worked in fast scale-ups and remote-first teams, with a lot of autonomy.
-
Nice-to-have
- Line management of a small, senior, mixed-discipline team.
- Background in solutions engineering, forward-deployed engineering, internal tooling, revenue/business operations, or consulting.
- Familiarity with the EU AI Act in an employment and financial-services context.
- Experience in fintech or a regulated environment.

- Competitive salary: 80K to 100K gross annually.
