Full Job Description

Tyler Technologies is seeking a Director of Operations to serve as the operational leader of our Louisiana State Enterprise portal. This is a mission-critical leadership role, functioning as the right hand to the General Manager and owning the day-to-day performance, growth, and success of our state operation.

Our team builds and maintains digital services used by citizens across Louisiana every day. The Director of Operations will lead a cross-functional team of project managers, business analysts, and support personnel, ensuring high performance, accountability, and exceptional partner engagement.

This role requires a confident, decisive, and highly collaborative leader who can balance execution with strategy, empower their team to deliver results, and represent Tyler as a trusted partner to state agencies. This is a high-impact leadership position that directly shapes the success of Louisiana’s digital government services, the performance and culture of a growing team, and the future direction of Tyler’s Louisiana State Enterprise.

RESPONSIBILITIES

Operational Leadership & Team Management
Serve as the primary leader of the operations team, driving accountability, performance, and professional growth
Establish and enforce clear goals, KPIs, and expectations for team members and projects
Lead daily and weekly operational rhythms (team meetings, status reviews, prioritization) with confidence and clarity
Build a culture of ownership, accountability, and continuous improvement
Coach, develop, and when necessary, course-correct team members to ensure consistent performance
Execution & Delivery Oversight
Ensure consistent, predictable delivery of projects and services through strong delegation and oversight
Maintain real-time visibility into project health, risks, timelines, and outcomes
Drive operational discipline, ensuring that work is completed by the appropriate team members, not absorbed upward
Continuously improve processes, workflows, and delivery standards

Partner & Client Leadership

Act as a primary point of contact and trusted advisor for key state agency partners
Lead meetings with confidence and communicate clearly, proactively, and professionally
Build and maintain strong, long-term relationships across agencies and stakeholders
Ensure consistent, high-quality communication and follow-through across all engagements

Strategic & Financial Ownership

Partner with the General Manager to drive growth, revenue, and long-term strategy
Maintain strong understanding of financial performance, forecasting, and payment processing models
Align team priorities and effort with broader portal goals and revenue opportunities
Focus on high-impact, long-term initiatives rather than low-value tactical work

Innovation & AI Leadership

Champion AI adoption, innovation, and process transformation across the operation
Identify opportunities to leverage AI and emerging technologies to improve:
Efficiency
Documentation and workflows
Service delivery

Partner experience

Lead the team in adopting modern tools and forward-thinking practices
Cross-Functional Collaboration
Work closely with the Director of Technology and other Tyler divisions to ensure alignment and execution
Represent the Louisiana enterprise across Tyler, building strong internal partnerships
Support enterprise-wide initiatives and opportunities

WHO WE’RE LOOKING FOR

Leadership Profile

A confident, visible leader who naturally earns respect across technical teams, clients, and executives
Proven ability to lead through others, not by doing the work yourself
Strong communicator who is proactive, responsive, and effective in high-stakes conversations
Demonstrated ability to hold teams accountable while maintaining a positive, collaborative culture
Comfortable making decisions, setting direction, and addressing performance issues directly

Core Competencies

Exceptional operational leadership and execution discipline
Strong strategic thinking and prioritization (focus on high-impact work)
Advanced relationship management and client engagement skills
Ability to translate vision into actionable plans and measurable outcomes
High degree of business and financial acumen

QUALIFICATIONS

7+ years of relevant experience in operations, consulting, project delivery, or digital services
3+ years leading teams in management or senior leadership capacity
Experience managing cross-functional teams (PMs, BAs, technical teams)
Background in government technology, SaaS, or digital services strongly preferred
Experience with payment processing, financial systems, or public sector operations is a plus

Additional Traits

Highly intelligent and quick to learn complex systems and environments
Comfortable operating in a fast-paced, entrepreneurial environment
Strong bias toward action, ownership, and results
Passion for innovation and continuous improvement

What Success Looks Like in This Role

Within the first 6–12 months, the Director of Operations will:

Establish themselves as the clear operational leader and decision-maker for the team
Create a culture where team members own delivery and outcomes, not leadership stepping in to complete work
Become a trusted, responsive, and visible partner to key state agencies
Drive improved project predictability, communication, and accountability
Shift focus toward strategic growth and long-term initiatives
Lead meaningful AI-driven improvements across operations

Work Environment

Hybrid role based in Baton Rouge, Louisiana
Some in-state travel required
