About MOR Furniture

MOR Furniture is one of the largest furniture retailers in the Western United States, operating more than 40 retail locations, multiple distribution centers, and a rapidly growing e-commerce business. As part of our digital transformation strategy, we are investing heavily in Artificial Intelligence, automation, data intelligence, and process optimization to improve customer experience, operational efficiency, and business decision-making.

We are seeking an AI Solutions Manager to lead the practical adoption of AI across our business. This is not a research position. We are looking for someone who can identify business opportunities, design AI-driven solutions, and work with internal teams and external partners to deliver measurable business results.

Position Summary

The AI Solutions Manager will serve as the bridge between business operations and technology. This individual will work closely with leaders across Merchandising, Inventory Planning, Purchasing, E-Commerce, Retail Operations, Customer Service, Marketing, Finance, and IT to identify opportunities where AI can improve productivity, automate workflows, enhance decision-making, and generate business value.

The ideal candidate combines strong business process understanding with practical AI knowledge and project leadership skills.
