Director of Business Systems

Location: Houston, TX
Position Type: Full-Time, Exempt
Department: Strategic Initiatives
Reports To: Director of Strategic Initiatives

Job Summary

The Director of Business Systems owns, integrates, and evolves Enterprise Electrical’s software ecosystem with a clear mandate to connect systems, enable data visibility, and deploy AI-driven capabilities that translate strategic vision into real, working solutions.

This is a builder role, not a maintainer role. You will serve as the technical execution arm of the Strategic Initiatives team, responsible for mapping and integrating the full technology stack, eliminating inefficiencies, and deploying automation and AI-enabled workflows that improve how teams operate across the business, from the field to the front office.

The ideal candidate brings hands-on experience in systems integration, business systems management, or digital transformation, along with proven success implementing AI tools and workflow automation in a business environment. A construction background is helpful but not required. What matters most is a builder mindset, strong execution ability, and the drive to deliver measurable results quickly.

• Identify and deploy high-value AI use cases across operations, estimating, reporting, and forecasting
• Implement AI-enabled workflows such as automated reporting, document processing, and predictive insights
• Leverage tools such as Microsoft Copilot, ChatGPT, and construction-specific AI platforms
• Apply prompt engineering and automation to operationalize AI across departments
• Design end-to-end workflows across the full project lifecycle from estimating through operations, finance, and field execution
• Lead rollout, training, and change management to ensure adoption across teams
• Build structured data environments to support automation, reporting, and analytics
• Develop dashboards and reporting tools that provide actionable business intelligence
• Partner cross-functionally with operations, finance, BIM/VDC, and preconstruction teams
