About The Position

Powerfleet is seeking an experienced AI Transformation Contractor to support the execution and operational management of the company’s enterprise-wide AI-First Transformation program.

The contractor will work closely with executive leadership, transformation leaders, and track owners across Engineering, Product, Internal AI Adoption, Customer Success, and Change Management to ensure deliverables, milestones, dependencies, and decisions are effectively managed and communicated. The ideal candidate thrives in fast-paced transformation environments, operates with urgency and accountability, and can bring clarity and structure to complex enterprise programs. This is a senior individual contributor role designed for someone who can influence through execution, organization, and strong business partnership rather than direct people leadership.

• Ability to work independently, manage ambiguity, and operate effectively in fast-moving environments.
• Strong stakeholder management skills with the ability to influence without direct authority.

• Comfortable working across global teams and occasionally supporting meetings aligned to U.S. Eastern Time.

Responsibilities

• Support the day-to-day execution of Powerfleet’s AI-First Transformation program across multiple workstreams and stakeholders.

• Maintain and manage program documentation, dashboards, action logs, dependency trackers, and transformation reporting.
• Ensure key deliverables, risks, and dependencies are visible, actionable, and progressing on schedule.
• Partner with transformation track owners to identify and resolve execution blockers quickly and effectively.
• Support ongoing program health reviews and escalation processes.
• Drive recurring transformation meetings, stand-ups, and steering committee sessions to track progress and action items.
• Coordinate across Engineering, Product, Customer Success, Internal AI Adoption, and Change Management teams.
• Facilitate follow-up activities and ensure accountability for commitments, decisions, and deadlines.
• Surface risks, gaps, and cross-functional conflicts early while helping drive alignment toward resolution.
• Support leadership in maintaining strong execution velocity across the transformation portfolio.
• Prepare executive-level updates, status reports, presentations, talking points, and transformation summaries.
• Help maintain a consistent transformation narrative internally across leadership teams and stakeholders.
