We're looking for an innovative AI Lead to join our Finance team and drive the transformation of our financial operations through artificial intelligence and automation. This is a high-impact role based in Tel Aviv, where you'll work directly with finance leadership to build AI-powered solutions that streamline processes, eliminate manual work, and deliver strategic insights.

You'll combine hands-on technical building with strategic program management, leading cross-functional initiatives that measurably improve efficiency across all financial workflows. This role is perfect for a technical, hands on product manager who understands business operations and wants to shape the future of finance at a rapidly scaling SaaS company.

• Map & prioritize finance domains across all Finance operations (supplier payments, customer activities, FP&A processes, procurement etc.) to identify high-impact AI automation opportunities
• Own end-to-end delivery of solutions from mapping user needs and evaluating tools to crafting POCs and live products.  
• Define and apply prioritization frameworks to assess potential ROI, feasibility, and build vs. buy decisions within strict security and SOX compliance guidelines
• Partner with cross-functional teams including business applications, developers, and compliance to ensure successful implementation
• Track impact and adoption by regularly presenting results and lessons learned to stakeholders across finance and tech
• Champion AI innovation in Finance by sharing knowledge, leading our AI finance community, training stakeholders, and scaling experimentation culture

• 3-6 years experience as a technical product manager, business operations or program management roles
• Innovative and product-focused mindset, complemented by the ability to ask questions that spark creative ideas and solutions.
• Strong understanding of AI technologies and tools (generative AI, LLMs, and agents) as well as proven ability to build and implement AI-powered solutions 
• Portfolio of previous AI or automation solutions you've built, led, or contributed to
• Proven ability to own complex, cross-functional initiatives from strategy to delivery
• Strong collaboration and communication skills, especially when working across functions
• Experience in building business use cases, assessing ROI and feasibility for prioritisation and build vs buy decision.
• You are a self-learner and a self-starter who thrives in ever-changing environments, working independently to continuously reinvent yourself and your role responsibilities to align with the latest technologies.

A big advantage if you also have-  

• Deep understanding of finance or business operations and experience working within security and SOX compliance guidelines
• Strong knowledge of SaaS business models and scaling challenges
