About the Team and the Role

eBay's Office of AI Transformation (OAIT) is driving eBay's reinvention of how our internal work gets done, faster and better, at enterprise scale. We partner across the company to turn AI into a practical advantage by introducing new AI capabilities, standing up agentic workflows, and discovering new ways to deliver value that weren't feasible before. This is a team of builders and change leaders who want to define "how work gets done" for thousands of employees and see their work show up in everyday execution. If you want to shape how a global company evolves at the intersection of technology, people, and real execution, this is the team.

As Director, AI Transformation, you will help move eBay from AI experimentation to measurable enterprise impact. You will work across business functions to identify the highest-value workflow opportunities, redesign work across people, processes, and technology, and support the deployment of AI-enabled solutions that improve speed and, most importantly, customer outcomes. This is a senior, high-autonomy role that combines strategy with hands-on execution. You will represent the voice of employees and help build the enterprise capability that modernizes how work gets done at eBay. This means partnering closely with internal IT and Engineering teams to shape and deliver a scalable platform that enables teams to automate repeatable work, streamline collaboration, and reuse proven workflow patterns across the company.

What You Will Do

  • Identify and prioritize high-impact workflows where AI can remove friction and drive better business or customer outcomes.
  • Partner with business functions to redesign workflows across roles, handoffs, and decisions.
  • Translate workflow needs into clear product requirements, including user needs, expected outcomes, and success measures.
  • Apply existing enterprise AI tools, automation, and agentic workflows to solve practical business problems.
  • Represent business team needs with IT, Product, and Engineering, ensuring AI solutions solve the right workflow problems and are practical to adopt.
  • Lead change enablement through clear communications, training, and manager support.
  • Build repeatable toolkits, playbooks, and templates that functions can use to scale adoption.
  • Measure and track adoption, productivity, and business impact for each workflow or solution.
  • Convert successful functional solutions into reusable enterprise patterns, and connect teams across the company to share AI learnings, examples, and best practices.

What You Bring

  • 10+ years of experience leading AI, digital, product, or workflow transformation in a complex technology organization, with a proven ability to redesign how teams work and deliver measurable adoption, productivity, or business impact.
  • Experience in Product Management (or a closely related product leadership role), with demonstrated success defining strategy, prioritizing investments, partnering with Engineering, and delivering customer and business impact.
  • Strong working knowledge of AI and automation, including how GenAI, agents, workflow automation, and enterprise AI tools can be applied to real business workflows.
  • Understanding of AI concepts and the ability to configure and use AI tools effectively, create practical examples for teams, and translate AI capabilities into simple, usable ways of working.
  • Proven ability to lead cross-functional work without direct authority and influence senior stakeholders through clarity, trust, and results.
  • Experience redesigning processes across people, technology, data, controls, and operating rhythms.
  • Strong program and prioritization discipline; able to separate high-value work from noise and keep teams moving.
  • Change leadership experience, including adoption strategy, training, communications, stakeholder engagement, and behavior change.
  • Builder mindset: comfortable operating in ambiguity, creating structure, testing quickly, learning fast, and improving as you go.

Pay

  • San Francisco Bay Area, New York City Metro and Seattle Metro: $224,800 - $300,100
  • All other U.S. work locations: $174,000 - $267,500
  • Total compensation may also include a target bonus and restricted stock units in addition to a full range of medical, financial, and other benefits (including 401(k) eligibility and various paid time off benefits, such as PTO and parental leave).
