About Flamingo Flamingo is an award-winning body, hair, and care brand delivering high-performance, thoughtfully designed products at an accessible price. Since launching in 2018, we’ve become the #3 player in women’s shave in the U.S. and expanded our assortment to offer products for every routine: razors, wax steps for face and body, shave gel, and body lotion. Our products and campaigns have been covered by Vogue, Vanity Fair, Elle, and InStyle, and we’ve won major beauty accolades from Allure and Essence. With a mission to empower women, Flamingo is committed to partnering with nonprofit partners working to help women and girls build healthy relationships with their bodies and has helped connect over 200K people to quality mental health and wellbeing resources. Flamingo is part of Mammoth Brands, the modern CPG company behind category-leading brands Harry’s, Flamingo, Lume, Mando, and Coterie. Driven by a mission to “Create Things People Like More,” the company is creating a new model—and home—for brands, founders, and talent looking to solve unmet needs, improve peoples’ lives and ultimately change the status quo. Even as we grow, we take extra care to maintain the small, scrappy, entrepreneurial culture that helped to get us where we are today: a company that people like more, that better serves its customers, employees, and community. Mammoth Brands is committed to making a positive impact and donated over $20 million through our network of nonprofit partners to date. We build brands that move fast and think big — and we hire people who are curious about AI, willing to experiment with it in their day-to-day work, and excited to accelerate what's possible. We prioritize giving our team the tools, training, and space to build real fluency, so you grow alongside the technology and help shape how we use it. |
About the team
The Central AI Team is leading Mammoth Brands' transformation into an AI-native company. We believe AI will drive the largest shift to how businesses operate in our lifetimes, and we are investing accordingly — across people, tools, infrastructure, and the workflows that run our business. Our 2026 mandate is to scale AI adoption thoughtfully across every function, drive measurable business impact in our highest-priority areas, and democratize access to high-quality data so every team can move faster.
The team partners across Marketing, Growth, CX, Supply Chain, Finance, Product, Analytics, Legal, Retail, and Technology to embed AI into real work, accelerate adoption of approved tools, and build custom solutions where off-the-shelf software is not enough. We sit at the intersection of strategy, engineering, and execution — and we are building the playbook for how Mammoth Brands operates in the AI era.
About the role
This is not a theoretical role. It is an operational technical leadership position responsible for translating Mammoth Brands' AI ambition into deployed systems, durable infrastructure, and measurable business outcomes.
As Director of Technology, AI Transformation, you will own the technical strategy and execution arm of the Central AI Team. You will report directly to the CTO & Chief AI Officer and partner closely with the Head of GenAI Strategy to set direction across the company's AI portfolio. You will hire and lead a team of Staff Software Engineers, Enablement, make the build-versus-buy calls that determine where we invest, and own the infrastructure — agents, evals, integrations, MCP servers, data plumbing — that makes our AI work scalable, secure, and reliable.
You will operate as the senior technical voice in the room when functional teams scope ambitious AI initiatives, when vendors pitch us, and when we have to decide whether a workflow gets a custom build, a configured tool, or a different approach entirely. You will also be a hands-on builder when it matters. The role demands strong technical judgment, fast execution, and the ability to lead through influence across a cross-functional org.
This is a career-defining opportunity to shape how a major CPG company runs in the AI era — with real budget, real executive backing, and a team to build it with you.

This should describe you
The opportunity
This role reports directly to the CTO & Chief AI Officer, sits on the Central AI team, and works in close partnership with the Head of GenAI Strategy. You will have visibility to the CEO, the Lane Leads, and the broader executive team. You will own real budget, build a real team, and ship work that touches every function in the company.
If you want to define how a major CPG company runs in the AI era — and you want to do it with autonomy, executive backing, and a team that's already moving — we'd love to talk.
Benefits and perks
