As a Client Deployment Lead, AI, you own the deployment of our platform at client companies, turning a CEO's AI ambitions into measurable change in company efficiency.

You lead each engagement from discovery through go-live to company-wide adoption, working with the client's leadership team and a forward-deployed engineer. The role suits people who have run transformation programs, are comfortable with technology and want to work at startup speed.

- Identify new use cases that expand adoption and value

- Turn what works into playbooks that make each deployment faster than the last

- Strong organization, project and change management skills

- Experience working with C-level stakeholders or founders
