This is a build-and-run position: you will define the operating model, hire and develop the team, and lead the execution of technology, process, and AI transformation initiatives that enable GTM teams to work faster, smarter, and with greater accountability.This role sits at the intersection of technology enablement, operational governance, and organizational transformation. You will oversee four critical functions — Technology & Tech Enablement, Project Management, AI & Automation Transformation, and Data & Analytics — and work cross-functionally with Q2's Enterprise IT team and AI Transformation Office to align strategy and accelerate adoption.The right candidate is an operator and a builder: equally comfortable designing governance frameworks and rolling up their sleeves to move work forward.
