Is This Role For You?

For You If
  • You've closed 7+ strategic partnerships that drove pipeline or revenue in high-growth tech/AI/SaaS companies
  • You understand the AI startup ecosystem and can credibly navigate venture, emerging AI verticals, and enterprise tech
  • You thrive in ambiguity and can build repeatable processes from scratch (playbooks, frameworks, attribution models)
  • You're equally comfortable in the boardroom with enterprise CIOs and grabbing coffee with AI startup founders
Won't Work If
  • You need a single metric to optimize—this role requires balancing pipeline, adoption, ecosystem value, and strategic fit
  • You've only done transactional channel or affiliate partnerships without building deep strategic relationships
  • You're not comfortable being hands-on (you'll need to sell partnerships yourself initially, not just hand off to sales)
