About The Position

Rex is hiring a Head of AI to translate the ambition of a fully AI-native organization into real, system-wide transformation across its technology, investment, and real estate businesses. This is the command seat for embedding AI into how the company operates, builds, and scales, with a mandate to drive step-function gains in speed, output, and decision quality across every function. This role owns outcomes across AI strategy, deployment, and adoption, ensuring urgency, rigor, and measurable impact. You will operate as the connective tissue between leadership, operators, and technical teams, identifying high-leverage use cases and deploying agents, automations, and workflows that eliminate manual work and unlock capacity across the organization. You will unify data across companies and systems, enabling AI to operate on real business context and drive decision-grade insights. You will establish systems, tooling, and training that make AI native across every level of the organization, from CEO to entry-level, building a culture where AI is embedded into daily workflows and execution. This is a hands-on, high-impact role for a deeply technical and operational builder who can move from idea to deployment quickly and repeatedly. It is a front-line seat for someone who wants to reshape how an entire organization functions through AI. Must be missionary to the bone.
