Full job description

YOU’RE A FORWARD-THINKING, ADAPTIVE, STRATEGIC TECH LEADER.

The Opportunity

Are you a strategic technologist who thrives on modernizing complex platforms and delivering innovative technology solutions? As an Insurance company headquartered in Alberta and focused on Albertans, it’s an exciting time of change! And as a membership organization, this role will make a meaningful difference in responding to Alberta’s needs. As our Director, IT, you will be the primary architect of the technology strategy, data analytics, and AI-driven delivery capabilities that power AMA’s Insurance operations. Reporting to the Chief Operating Officer, Insurance, and indirectly to the Chief Transformation Officer, Association, you will provide strategic stewardship of our core Insurance platforms, including Guidewire, ensuring they remain secure, reliable, and integrated into a modern digital ecosystem.

In this leadership role, you will work as a strategic partner alongside executive leaders in Underwriting, Claims, and Agency to co-create technology plans that improve operations and enhance the member experience. While ensuring our systems are stable and scalable, you will also serve as an advocate for digital modernization and AI enablement, leveraging AI tools and concepts to increase productivity and deliver new value-added capabilities for our members and employees.

A Place to Belong

AMA is more than a workplace; it’s a family. Together, we help protect the things that matter most to our more than one-million members—everything from roadside safety to retail savings, food security to childhood well-being. And with operations that span automotive, registries, travel, insurance and more, the opportunities to grow with us are almost limitless!

For us, curiosity fuels innovation. We value people who are eager to explore new ideas and who are comfortable putting emerging technologies into practice. We see experience with AI‑powered tools like ChatGPT, Copilot, and similar platforms as a real plus - especially when it’s used to work smarter, increase efficiency, and find better ways to get things done.

Building on a century of proud service in Alberta communities, we’re passionate about making a meaningful difference in the places where we live and work. And that all begins with our people. As part of the AMA team, you’ll enjoy:

Competitive salary and flexible benefits, with five packages to choose from and up to $3,000 in health and wellness spending accounts.
Employer-paid retirement savings program, including 5% AMA contribution and 5% matching.
Employee-exclusive discounts on travel, insurance, memberships, driver education, registry services, and more.
Free travel medical insurance for you and your immediate family.
Ongoing professional development, with unlimited learning opportunities, Linkedin Learning access, and dedicated time for personal growth.
Paid vacation and personal days, including three weeks of vacation to start, a Me Day, a Volunteer Day, and the option to purchase additional vacation time.

Who You Are

You are a strategic and analytical leader who can simplify complex strategy, analytics, and AI concepts for non-technical audiences while managing multiple high-impact initiatives.
With a deep understanding of Insurance platform architectures, you excel at balancing the need for rapid innovation with the requirements for stability and security.
You are an adaptive technologist who is comfortable applying machine learning and AI concepts to deliver results within real-world operational processes and software development workflows.
Your leadership style is rooted in relationship-building, allowing you to align internal software engineering teams and external vendors toward shared transformation goals.
You possess a strong contemporary understanding of data environments, ideally with Snowflake, and thrive in a regulatory and compliance-focused environment.

How You’ll Make an Impact

You will define and evolve the Insurance technology and data strategy, ensuring our roadmap accelerates both business goals and AMA’s enterprise transformation agenda.
By providing executive leadership over core systems, you will oversee the development and integration of underwriting, claims, and billing solutions to ensure they are stable and user-focused.
You will advocate for digital enablement across Insurance functions, championing technologies and AI tools that improve operational efficiency and digital member experiences.
Through strategic management of software engineering teams and external vendors, you will leverage partners to accelerate modernization and access specialized technical skills.
You will lead the modernization of our Insurance data platform, leveraging Snowflake to advance API and cloud-based integration capabilities to increase business agility.
As a mentor, you will supervise and develop high-performing technical teams, fostering a culture of AI-driven delivery, technical excellence, and continuous improvement.

What You Bring to the Table

You have a Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, Engineering, or a related field; advanced certifications like PMP or ITIL are significant assets.
You bring significant leadership experience in IT, with a specialized background in leading software development teams.
Experience in insurance or financial services, including Guidewire, is preferred, but not required.
You have a strong technical understanding of modern engineering practices, cloud technologies, contemporary data stacks (ideally Snowflake), and core platforms like Guidewire.
Your experience includes a proven ability to lead through change and manage the ambiguity that comes with AI-driven large-scale digital transformations.

Belonging Matters Here

AMA is committed to providing an inclusive, respectful, and accessible environment. If you require an accommodation at any time during our recruitment process, please contact [email protected]. We’ll work with you feel supported throughout your journey with us.
