About The Position

Join a cohort of driven young professionals disrupting the historic way of consulting, building and optimizing the future of AI-powered marketing consulting. Learn the tools. Apply the frameworks. Work with the world's best brands. Stitch is the global leader in helping brands drive CRM performance through Braze and Databricks. We work with Fortune 1000 brands to design and execute martech-driven solutions and lifecycle marketing strategies that drive meaningful outcomes—producing award-winning work for brands like Taco Bell and e.l.f. cosmetics. Our fast-growing team spans the US, UK, and Canada. We're actively building the best customer relationship marketing (CRM) consultancy in the world. Not the biggest—the best. We're looking for teammates who are energized by this challenge. Our 2026 TopStitch program is a first-of-its-kind cohort at Stitch — built to develop a new generation of AI-enabled young professionals. You'll join a select group of just 4–6 high-caliber peers and move through a structured curriculum before applying what you've learned to real client accounts across some of the most exciting name brands in the world. The program begins with four weeks of intensive onboarding — deep, focused curriculum learning covering Stitch, the martech ecosystem, and our very own AI tooling, frameworks, and platforms. From there, you'll begin applying those skills directly to live engagements, with ongoing enablement continuing throughout. You'll keep learning as Stitch keeps building — across data, AI, Braze, and beyond. This program is Stitch's catalyst for changing the way consulting gets done. We're not handing you a playbook — we're asking you to help us write it, using native AI tools to reinvent how we deliver value for our clients. Please note: It's an in-person, Indianapolis-based program by design, because the best part of TopStitch is learning in the room. From your cohort. From your manager. From the people around you every day.

Requirements

A genuine, demonstrable interest in AI, marketing technology, and the tools reshaping how businesses operate — show us, don't just tell us.
1–2 years of professional experience. Critically: you've worked in a customer-facing or client-serving capacity in some form — retail, hospitality, account or client management, services, or consulting. You know what it means to be accountable to another person's needs.
This is a full-time, in-person role based in our downtown Indianapolis, Indiana office. You'll be expected in the office daily as you build alongside your cohort and the broader Stitch team. Candidates must live in or be willing to relocate to Indianapolis prior to their start date.
A bachelor’s degree in any field is required. CS? Great. Philosophy? Also great. We're looking for people who think critically, work hard, and are naturally drawn to figuring things out (the subject matter you studied matters a lot less than the way your mind works).
A tool-first mindset — when facing a challenge, you reach for the best tool available before defaulting to manual work. You're naturally inclined to find the automated, AI-enabled path.
Demonstrated grit and creative problem-solving. You've had to figure something out without a clear answer, and you didn't stop until you did.
Strong written and verbal communication skills. You can explain complex ideas clearly and adjust your delivery for different audiences.
Intellectual curiosity and range — you're energized by learning across disciplines and can think on your feet across unfamiliar territory. You’ll be able to tell us right away what’s something you’ve taught yourself recently.
Comfort with ambiguity and a non-linear path. If you need a complete, clearly defined roadmap to feel confident, this role probably isn't the right fit — and that's okay.
Must be eligible to work in the United States without visa sponsorship now or in the future.
Strong judgment, recognizing when to dive deeper to solve a challenge versus when to escalate to other team members.
Outcome focus - we are focusing on driving clear, tangible outputs and results for our clients, continually adding value to their business.

Nice To Haves

You're early in your career and hungry to grow fast.
You're genuinely excited about what AI is doing to marketing and business — not because it's trendy, but because you've already been playing with the tools and thinking about what's possible.
You have a strong service mindset. Whether you've worked a retail floor, managed customer accounts, or hustled through your first job, you understand that showing up for people — with energy, follow-through, and a good attitude — is the foundation of great customer outcomes. You're ready to bring that same care to some of the most recognized brands in the world.
You don't wait to be told what to learn. You find the tool, figure it out, and look for ways to apply it. You're coachable — you have an innate desire to learn, hear how you can get better, and take the next steps to apply it.
You are naturally energized by technology and motivated by doing excellent work alongside a group of peers who push each other to be better.
If you love to learn, thrive without a rigid script, and want to build a career at the intersection of AI and marketing, this program was built for you.
