About The Position

We are seeking Strategic Engagement Leads to help drive the successful design, deployment, and value realization of enterprise AI initiatives within complex organizations. This is a highly client-facing strategic delivery role. Strategic Engagement Leads work directly with customer stakeholders, Domain Value Architects, and Forward Deployment Engineers to understand business priorities, structure complex problems, identify high-value opportunities, and translate strategic objectives into actionable AI deployments.

Strategic Engagement Leads are expected to bring strong structured thinking, business judgment, and the ability to quickly learn complex customer environments. You will play an active role in customer workshops, use-case development, deployment planning, stakeholder alignment, and value tracking. Success in this role requires comfort working directly with clients, navigating ambiguity, and taking ownership of workstreams from initial discovery through deployment and adoption. This role is well suited for individuals with experience in consulting, strategy, transformation, or complex technology implementations who want to work directly with customers on high-impact AI transformation.

• Experience working directly with customers or senior business stakeholders in complex organizations.

• Experience working across business and technical teams.
• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in a related field.
