AI at SharkNinja

At SharkNinja, we’re building an AI-native culture. We’re not waiting for the future; we’re creating it. Our people are expected to experiment boldly, adopt new tools, and continuously raise what’s possible to create meaningful impact for our consumers. If you believe the best way to do your job hasn’t been invented yet, you’ll fit right in.

What if you could help extraordinary leaders expand what's possible and translate that potential into measurable business performance? At SharkNinja, we believe extraordinary business results begin with extraordinary human performance.

We're building a world-class Performance Acceleration team that brings the science of human performance into the realities of business leadership: helping leaders think more effectively, respond to pressure as a catalyst not a constraint, unlock the potential of their teams, and deliver breakthrough results.

We're seeking a Director of Performance Acceleration who combines deep expertise in performance psychology with strong business acumen and the ability to turn psychological insight into practical, observable performance improvement.

This is not a traditional executive coaching role.

Our Directors operate inside the business, partnering closely with VP+ leaders, their managers, and their teams to identify what's getting in the way of performance, develop the capabilities required to overcome those barriers, and create the conditions for sustained success. You'll work with leaders navigating consequential business challenges, high-stakes decisions, organizational transformation, and ambitious growth objectives.
