Senior Manager, AI Workflow Redesign

Location: Dearborn, MI, United States; Hybrid

 

We are the movers of the world and makers of the future. We get up every day, roll up our sleeves, and build a better world – together. At Ford, we're all a part of something bigger than ourselves. Are you ready to change the way the world moves?

Ford's Central AI Team is the enterprise hub responsible for scaling AI and agentic solutions across the company — from the businesses that design and build vehicles to the teams that sell and service them. Central to this effort is making sure AI changes how work gets done by fundamentally redesigning workflows and how jobs get done.

In this position...

Ford is building a new capability at the center of our enterprise AI strategy. Reporting into the Central AI Team's Director of AI Strategy, Enablement, & Workflow, the Senior Manager, AI Workflow Redesign is responsible for defining how AI and agentic solutions change the mechanics of work at Ford — who does what, in what sequence, with what handoffs — across Enterprise Bets and the functions that run them. This role sits between the technical build of an AI capability and the operational reality of a team's day-to-day work, translating what an agent or model can do into an improved workflow.

The ideal candidate has done this before: taken a new capability, sat with the team that use it, found where the friction is, and redesigned the process around it. This is not a role focused on building the AI itself — it's focused on making sure AI-enabled work sticks, at scale, across a matrixed organization. Where skill teams or business units already have dedicated workflow redesign talent, this role's job is to make them better through standards, tools, and coaching.

Based in Dearborn, MI, this is a hybrid position with a required four-day onsite presence each week. Relocation assistance may be available for qualified candidates.
