One rule. Universal propagation. Enforced at the workload, not at a chokepoint. Trusted by more than 500 of the world's leading enterprises. For more information, visit aviatrix.ai. 

ABOUT THE ROLE:

We are looking for a seasoned Senior DevOps Engineer to join our team and take ownership of our CI/CD ecosystem, cloud infrastructure automation, and developer platform. This is a journey-level, fully qualified position where you will independently design and drive solutions across complex, diverse projects — bringing both technical depth and collaborative leadership to everything you do.

You will work at the intersection of infrastructure engineering, AI-driven tooling, and modern cloud operations, partnering closely with development and TechOps teams to accelerate delivery cycles and ensure the reliability, security, and scalability of our systems.

Key Responsibilities:

• Design, implement, and maintain robust, scalable CI/CD pipelines across multiple environments, applying industry best practices to optimize delivery speed and system reliability.
• Automate the provisioning and lifecycle management of cloud resources (VMs, EC2, and more) using Infrastructure as Code — with Terraform as the primary tool — ensuring consistent, repeatable, and auditable deployments.
• Manage and optimize cloud networking configurations, supporting complex developer workflows and infrastructure scalability requirements.
• Integrate AI and large language model (LLM) capabilities into DevOps tooling and developer workflows, including leveraging Model Context Protocol (MCP) for intelligent automation and context-aware pipeline tooling.
• Collaborate with engineering and operations teams to identify bottlenecks, reduce toil, and continuously improve the release process.
• Apply security best practices to deployment pipelines and cloud infrastructure, proactively identifying and remediating vulnerabilities.
• Monitor, observe, and optimize infrastructure performance, taking initiative to resolve complex issues before they impact customers.
• Evaluate emerging tools and technologies — particularly in the AI/LLM space — and provide guidance on how to incorporate them effectively into organization workflows.
• Communicate technical strategies and recommendations clearly to senior internal and external stakeholders, adapting your approach to diverse audiences and often driving alignment on difficult decisions.

Qualifications:

• 5+ years of related DevOps/infrastructure engineering experience (or 3 years with a Master’s degree or equivalent experience).
• Deep, hands-on expertise with Terraform for infrastructure as code — this is a must-have.
• Hands-on, production-level experience building and deploying AI/LLM-integrated systems — this is a must-have. You have worked directly with large language model APIs, designed AI-assisted workflows, and shipped real tooling powered by LLMs in an engineering or DevOps context.
• Hands-on, production-level experience with Model Context Protocol (MCP) — this is a must-have. You have implemented MCP-based integrations to build intelligent, context-aware developer tools, automation pipelines, or agent workflows, not just read about it.
• Strong command of CI/CD platforms (e.g., GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins, CircleCI, or similar).
• Experience provisioning and managing cloud infrastructure on AWS, GCP, or Azure (EC2, VMs, VPCs, IAM, etc.).
• Solid understanding of cloud networking concepts (VPCs, subnets, security groups, load balancers, DNS).
• Demonstrated ability to work independently, resolve ambiguous and complex problems, and deliver high-quality solutions with minimal supervision.

Preferred:

• Experience with Kubernetes, Helm, or container orchestration platforms.
• Familiarity with GitOps workflows (e.g., ArgoCD, Flux).
• Scripting proficiency in Python, Bash, or Go.
• Knowledge of observability tooling (Datadog, Prometheus/Grafana, OpenTelemetry).
• Experience building internal developer platforms (IDPs).

US Pay Range:

The US National annual base salary range for this full-time position is $131,500-$154,700 + benefits + 401(k) match + equity. The pay range is determined by the role, work location, job-related skills, level, experience and relevant education.

About Human Agency

We're scaling rapidly and have a growing pipeline of opportunities that demand exceptional talent across disciplines. Our mission is to bring on individuals, from creative producers to technical experts to entrepreneurial leaders, who can help us realize this next chapter of growth.

We are a company of doers. Leaders roll up their sleeves, teams work flat, and everyone contributes to what ships. Titles don't insulate us from feedback or basics. We invite critique, learn quickly, and keep raising the bar. The best ideas win here, no matter where they come from, because clients trust us to deliver the strongest outcomes every time.

Our clients' missions, products, and bottom lines are sacred. We immerse ourselves in their world, becoming stewards of their goals and partners in solving big problems. Every product, strategy, or asset we create must be both beautiful and functional; practical, usable, and designed for real-world impact.

Humans are our most valuable resource, and we only grow by hiring people who push us forward. Across strategy, engineering, design, data, and operations, we seek out teammates who raise the bar and make us better. Always hire up, never down.

We partner with organizations of all sizes to explore, design, and implement AI strategies that are secure, scalable, and human-centered. We believe AI should amplify human potential, not replace it and we build with that conviction in every engagement. From advisory and tooling to implementation and education, we meet clients where they are at and help them integrate AI in ways that align with their mission and values. Our goal is to empower teams to work smarter, move faster, and unlock new possibilities through thoughtful, responsible innovation.

And through it all, we lead with purpose, love, and adventure. We do meaningful work with people we care about, and we make the ride an adventure worth taking. Because at Human Agency, who we are and how we work are one and the same.

The Opportunity

We are seeking an exceptional Chief of Staff for our Managing Director of AI—someone who combines strategic vision in AI with hands-on execution and technological know-how. You'll be both a force-multiplier and a transformation architect: designing AI-enabled processes, building automated engines that run independently, leading organizational rollouts, and ensuring crisp execution across our AI solutions practice.

This role goes beyond traditional Chief of Staff responsibilities. You'll design processes that leverage AI, build repeatable systems that scale, and lead entire client transformations from discovery to sustained adoption. You have the potential to grow into leading organizational-level AI implementations as the practice expands.

Key Responsibilities

Strategic & Executive Leadership

• Partner with the Managing Director of AI and the executive team to translate priorities into sequenced plans, resourcing, and measurable outcomes
• Lead Human Agency's AI transformation methodology: define offerings, build repeatable frameworks, and establish best practices for AI-enabled workflows
• Design end-to-end processes that embed AI tools (LLMs, automation platforms, knowledge assistants) into client workflows and internal operations
• Translate complex AI capabilities into clear business cases, use cases, and implementation roadmaps for executive audiences
• Produce high-quality executive materials (briefings, roadmaps, decision memos) that drive alignment and decisions
• Identify where AI creates leverage across client engagements and surface strategic opportunities to leadership

AI Process Design & Automated Engines

• Design and build AI-powered systems that operate independently with minimal ongoing intervention—automated engines that scale beyond individual engagements
• Create repeatable processes for AI implementation: discovery frameworks, solution architectures, evaluation routines, and governance models
• Design prompts, playbooks, and knowledge bases optimized for reliability, consistency, and reusability across multiple clients
• Implement lightweight automation using no/low-code tools (Zapier, Make, Airtable) integrated with AI capabilities
• Establish monitoring and feedback loops that enable self-correcting, continuously improving systems
• Document patterns and best practices that can be deployed at scale

Client Service Delivery & Organizational Rollouts

• Own end-to-end delivery on multiple client engagements involving AI-enabled solutions (e.g., knowledge assistants, workflow automations, content summarization, research copilots), from discovery through launch and sustained adoption
• Lead company-wide and client-wide AI adoption initiatives—managing stakeholder alignment, training, governance, and measurement across entire organizations
• Run comprehensive discovery to surface use cases, success metrics, risks, change-management needs, and technical requirements; translate findings into scopes, timelines, and clear acceptance criteria
• Coordinate solution build-outs with internal teammates and external partners: data/connectivity needs, tool selection, integration planning, prompt engineering, and rollout choreography
• Design change-management approaches that address skill gaps, cultural resistance, workflow disruption, and organizational readiness
• Partner with client leadership to sequence rollout phases, manage dependencies, and demonstrate ROI

Quality, Governance & Evaluation

• Set lightweight evaluation routines: accuracy metrics, latency benchmarks, cost tracking, quality assurance processes, and continuous improvement cycles
• Establish prompt/playbook management, basic safety/guardrail checks, and UAT plans
• Build governance frameworks that enable responsible, scalable AI adoption across organizations
• Implement monitoring systems that track performance, usage, and business impact

Stakeholder Management & Enablement

• Lead standing client check-ins, executive presentations, demo readiness, decision logs, and release notes, presenting succinct options and recommendations
• Create comprehensive enablement materials: user guides, FAQs, training programs, and governance playbooks that empower client teams to operate AI systems independently
• Build lasting client relationships through proactive communication, anticipation of needs, and consistent delivery quality
• Present to executive audiences with clarity and confidence, addressing concerns about accuracy, security, and adoption

Operations & Project Management

• Design and continuously improve the operating system for AI work: intake → triage → prioritization → delivery → QA → launch → measurement
• Manage staffing assignments and subcontractor contributions across concurrent workstreams; keep tools current (Asana/Notion, Google Workspace, Slack)
• Budget & scope control: track time against SOWs, flag changes early, manage vendors, and ensure on-budget delivery with clear documentation
• Establish shared dashboards for delivery health (timeline, risk, burn, dependency status) and run tight meeting cadences

Communications & Reporting

• Prepare agendas, briefings, and executive-ready presentations; synthesize complex information into actionable insights
• Provide clear, timely reporting to the Managing Director of AI and stakeholders on progress, risks, and decisions
• Contribute to Human Agency's AI thought leadership through documentation of best practices, case studies, and insights

Who You Are

Experience & Skills

• 5-7+ years in operations, client services, product/program/project management, strategic support, consulting, or transformation roles with direct ownership of client-facing delivery
• Demonstrated success leading multi-stakeholder projects and organizational change initiatives end-to-end (scope, timelines, budgets, risk, and change management)
• Deep AI fluency: hands-on experience implementing LLM-enabled solutions, prompt engineering, workflow automation, and knowledge management systems; can shape prompts/playbooks, evaluate quality, and choose appropriate tools or vendors
• Strong understanding of AI capabilities and limitations, when to use AI, how to design for reliability, and how to manage risks responsibly
• Proven ability to design repeatable processes and systems that scale beyond individual projects
• Experience with no/low-code automation platforms (e.g., Zapier/n8n), knowledge bases, and modern AI tooling
• High proficiency with Google Workspace, Asana/Notion, Slack, and comfort with modern web and content tools; experience preparing polished executive documents and presentations
• Exceptional ability to translate complex technical concepts into clear business value for non-technical audiences
• Bonus: Experience leading organizational-level technology rollouts, background in management consulting, familiarity with responsible AI considerations (privacy, data handling, consent, bias mitigation), or experience in AI/ML product development

Mindset & Traits

• Builder and operator: You design systems that work without constant oversight, not just execute tasks
• Strategic and tactical: Comfortable setting vision while rolling up sleeves for hands-on implementation
• AI pragmatist: Excited about possibilities but grounded in what actually delivers measurable value
• Mission-driven; systems thinker with bias for action
• Clear, persuasive communicator who can influence executive stakeholders and earn trust through delivery

• Able to hold strategic context while driving tactical execution across multiple concurrent engagements
• Intellectually curious with strong learning agility, you stay current on AI capabilities and translate findings into practical applications

Considerations

• Education: Bachelor's degree or equivalent experience; an advanced degree in business, technology, or a related field is a plus
• Ethics: Commitment to ethical practices and responsible AI (transparency, human oversight, privacy, bias mitigation)
• Travel: Regular (20–40%) for client activities, organizational rollouts, and events
• Location: Remote-friendly with preference for candidates in major tech hubs

Compensation

This role offers a competitive base salary with performance-based bonuses and potential equity participation. Final compensation will vary based on experience, performance, and location.

Managing Director

Location: Chicago, Atlanta, Dallas, Minneapolis,
Reports To: Executive Leadership
FLSA Status: Exempt

Role Overview

A Managing Director is a business leader first. You are accountable for building and running a meaningful slice of the firm, usually a Service Line, portfolio of accounts, or a major capability area. You own growth, margin, delivery quality, and leadership culture. This role sits at the intersection of market, client, and talent. You set direction, create commercial momentum, ensure delivery excellence, and develop leaders who can scale the business beyond you.

Success in this role requires strong judgment, high standards, and the ability to operate across three time horizons at once: this quarter’s results, next year’s pipeline, and the multi-year build of capability and leadership depth.

What You Own

Growth and Commercial Performance

You are directly accountable for revenue growth and the underlying engine that produces it.

• Own a revenue and margin target and deliver against it with disciplined forecasting
• Build and maintain a healthy pipeline across existing clients and new logo pursuits
• Lead complex pursuits-- qualification, deal strategy, pricing, staffing model, and close
• Develop account expansion strategies that move relationships from project-based to partnership-based
• Translate market signals into clear offerings, packaging, and positioning
• Partner with Sales on territory strategy, win themes, and consistent pipeline hygiene
• Drive a culture where business development is a normal leadership behavior, not a separate department

Client Outcomes and Executive Trust

You are expected to operate credibly with executives and maintain durable relationships.

• Serve as executive sponsor for priority accounts, ensuring senior access and long-term health
• Build C-suite relationships rooted in outcomes, not activity
• Hold a high bar on delivery quality, clarity of scope, and measurable impact
• Identify and correct risk early: scope creep, misaligned expectations, delivery drift, or team breakdown
• Step in when needed to reset a client relationship, renegotiate scope, or re-staff for success
• Ensure the firm consistently brings points of view, not just delivery capacity

Delivery Excellence at Scale

You are not running every project, but you are responsible for the system that makes projects succeed.

• Establish delivery standards and enforce them consistently across engagements
• Ensure engagements have clear goals, a sound plan, disciplined governance, and visible outcomes
• Build repeatable models for staffing, estimation, and quality control
• Drive strong engagement leadership habits: stakeholder management, transparency, and escalation
• Oversee the health of the portfolio, not just individual engagements
• Ensure delivery performance ties back to margin and client satisfaction, not just “getting it done”

People Leadership and Talent System Ownership

A Managing Director builds leaders and makes talent decisions with clarity.

• Lead and develop senior leaders (Directors, Principals, Engagement Leads, Capability Leads)
• Set expectations for leadership behaviors, coaching discipline, and performance management rigor
• Own succession planning for key roles and critical accounts
• Partner with HR and Recruiting on workforce planning tied to pipeline and capability strategy
• Make decisive calls on performance, promotion readiness, and role fit
• Ensure the talent system is fair, consistent, and tied to measurable impact
• Build a culture of direct feedback, high standards, and follow-through

Service Line and Capability Strategy

You shape what the firm is known for, and you build the bench to deliver it.

• Define strategic priorities for the Service Line or portfolio: where to play and how to win
• Evolve offerings based on client demand, delivery learnings, and competitor movement
• Build reusable assets: playbooks, accelerators, training paths, and delivery patterns
• Invest in capability depth: expertise, thought leadership, and delivery quality at scale
• Drive cross-Service Line collaboration to sell and deliver integrated work
• Maintain a clear point of view on the market and communicate it internally and externally

Operational Discipline and Governance

You are accountable for predictable execution, not heroic recovery.

• Own forecasting accuracy, staffing health, utilization balance, and margin management
• Ensure strong operating cadence: pipeline reviews, account reviews, portfolio health checks
• Identify constraints early: skill gaps, staffing shortages, capacity risk, underperforming accounts
• Ensure compliance with internal policies and client requirements
• Partner with Finance on pricing guardrails, margin targets, and performance reporting
• Make tradeoffs explicitly and communicate them clearly to leadership

What Great Looks Like (Outcomes and Signals)

Business Outcomes

• Consistent growth in revenue and gross margin for the owned portfolio
• Increased share of wallet in strategic accounts
• Higher ratio of repeatable work and multi-quarter engagements
• Improved forecast reliability and reduced last-minute staffing chaos
• Strong promotion pipeline and reduced leadership single points of failure

Client Outcomes

• Executives proactively pull you into new opportunities
• Clear, measurable impact and strong renewals or expansions
• Fewer escalations because problems are caught early and corrected fast
• Strong delivery reputation: the firm is trusted with harder work

People Outcomes

• Senior leaders in your area consistently develop talent and manage performance
• High retention among top performers
• Clear accountability norms and fewer “gray zone” expectations
• People understand what good looks like and how to get there

Key Interfaces

• Executive leadership team
• Sales and account leadership
• Service Line and capability leaders
• HR (performance, promotions, workforce planning)
• Finance (forecasting, pricing, margin)
• Marketing (thought leadership, positioning)
• Client executive stakeholders

Required Experience and Capabilities

• 12–15+ years in consulting, professional services, or equivalent leadership roles
• Demonstrated ownership of revenue growth, margin, and forecasting
• Track record of winning and expanding executive relationships
• Experience leading senior leaders and scaling teams
• Strong understanding of delivery economics: pricing, staffing mix, utilization, margin levers
• High-confidence executive communication and presence
• Ability to make clear calls with imperfect information

Leadership Expectations

This role requires more than being strong at delivery or sales. You are expected to set the tone.

• Operate with clarity and accountability
• Raise standards without creating chaos
• Be direct, fair, and consistent in talent decisions
• Build trust through follow-through and clean communication
• Stay close enough to the work to know what is real, but high enough to scale it
• Put the firm’s long-term credibility above short-term convenience

Working Conditions

• Travel based on client and business needs
• Evening and weekend hours as needed, tied to client commitments, executive meetings, or key pursuits

U.S. Compensation & Benefits  

Compensation at Inspire11 
Inspire11 follows Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Equal Pay Act of 1963, the Illinois Human Rights Act, the Illinois Equal Wage Act, and the Illinois Equal Pay Act of 2003. We believe that people performing the same role at the same level, with similar levels of ability or experience, should be similarly compensated. We also believe that the most critical factors driving compensation should be an Eleven’s skill, experience, performance, responsibility, and effort. We may also consider an employee’s length of service, relevant education, training, or certification, and the requirements of a specific job. We may also consider whether the cost of living or competition for talent in specific markets requires adjustments in compensation for employees in those markets. Our goal is to fairly compensate all our Elevens based on these factors within the Company’s financial ability.   

Compensation may be increased or decreased at Inspire11’s discretion based on an employee’s performance reviews, market conditions, and the Company’s financial performance. Inspire11 will always notify an employee in writing before any change is made to their compensation.  

The base salary range for this position is $150,000 to $300,000.

Managing Directors are eligible for performance-based bonus compensation. Bonus opportunity is tied to Service Line revenue performance, portfolio margin, and overall firm results. Total compensation is designed to reward sustained business growth, strong client outcomes, and effective leadership.

Bonuses 
We may allow employees in Sales, Recruiting, or Leadership to earn periodic bonuses based on sales, revenue, client-specific or practice-specific targets. These targets are communicated to each eligible employee via offer letter or annual update. All such target-based bonuses are calculated based on the Company and an individual’s periodic performance and will only be awarded if: (a) the employee is meeting performance expectations and is an employee in good standing of the Company; (b) the target is met; and (c) the Company’s current financial performance and market conditions permit the bonus to be paid out. All periodic bonuses are discretionary and are earned only when paid out.   

Each year, the Company will decide whether the Company’s financial performance, market performance, and business realities allow it to create an annual bonus pool. If the Company decides to award annual bonuses, the Leadership Team will grant them to employees in good standing based on the same factors discussed in the previous paragraph, while also considering employees’ diligence, performance, expertise, skill, judgment, and experience. To be eligible to participate in this annual bonus pool, an employee must be hired by no later than October 1st of the preceding year. Annual bonuses and merit increases may be prorated based on hire date. Employees eligible for target-based periodic bonuses are not eligible to participate in the annual bonus pool.   

Options or Other Equity in Inspire11 
Inspire11 has a legacy program that allowed certain high-performing employees to purchase shares of the Company through an affiliate. The Company also has a newer program that grants options annually to high-performing employees based on their performance reviews, their managers’ recommendations, and leadership approval. These options have a vesting period associated with them.

• Medical insurance plans,

• Long-term disability, providing for 60% of an employee’s salary up to a maximum of $10,000 per month for the time period from the 91st day after a qualifying event through the earlier of the end of the disability or age 67;

• Employee Assistance Program, providing for confidential counseling sessions, 24-hour crisis support, online peer support groups, skills training, behavioral health coaching, initial free legal consultations (and discounted rates on referred lawyers), online legal forms, assistance with eldercare and parenting services, among other things.  

Full-time employees are also eligible to participate in the Company’s 401(k) plan, which allows employees to contribute to a standard or Roth IRA. According to a vesting schedule, the Company matches 100% of employee contributions up to 3% of an employee’s salary.  

Depending on eligibility and their elections, full-time employees may also have access to certain tax-advantaged savings accounts set up through the Company, into which employees contribute withheld funds:   

• Flexible savings accounts
• Limited-purpose flexible savings accounts  
• Healthcare savings accounts
• Dependent care savings accounts  
• Commuter benefit accounts  

Paid Time Off and Leave 
Inspire11 grants all eligible employees any statutory leave required by federal, Illinois, or other applicable law, such as FMLA, bereavement, sick leave, emergency leave, jury duty or witness leave, and VESSA leave.   

In addition, Inspire11 has a self-managed paid time off policy (PTO) that does not set predetermined upper limits on the amount of PTO an employee may take. All PTO must be requested in advance and approved by the appropriate supervisor to ensure client work can continue. All full-time employees are expected to take a minimum of one week of PTO each year.   

Inspire11 offers paid parental leave to full-time employees who have been with the company for at least one year. Birthing parents are eligible for up to 12 weeks of paid parental leave, while non-birthing parents are eligible for up to 6 weeks. Short-term disability (STD) benefits are also provided following childbirth. When combined with PTO and STD, birthing parents may receive a total of 18–20 weeks of paid leave. Lastly, Inspire11 has eight paid holidays.

Inspire11 also maintains other programs that provide additional benefits to employees, such as:   

• Impact to 11: a charitable giving matching program where, after being employed by Inspire11 for a year, employees may request that a qualifying charity receive up to $500 in matching donations each year. 
• Professional development benefits for qualifying employees: a program allowing for reimbursement of certain course materials and costs on a discretionary basis for employees who have been at Inspire11 for at least 6 months, with supervisor’s approval.
