Company Description

Thrive Capital and DST Global-backed AI operations startup ($29M raised)

Job Description

You will own the end-to-end customer journey, from conducting technical sales and building rapid POCs to architecting AI-powered workflows for enterprise giants. By integrating autonomous agents into IT, HR, and Finance systems, you’ll ensure customers like Figma and Databricks achieve immediate ROI while shaping the future of enterprise automation.

Location

San Francisco, USA

Why this role is remarkable

  • Join a high-growth Series B stage company that has already automated over 50% of support requests for industry leaders like Cursor, Scale AI, and Webflow.
  • Work directly with founders and engineering teams to translate complex field learnings into core product features and platform vision.
  • Rare opportunity to operate as a technical founder-in-waiting, gaining mastery across multiple domains while receiving meaningful early equity and visa sponsorship.

What You Will Do

  • Map messy enterprise workflows into compelling automation roadmaps and deliver high-stakes demos that move deals forward in a single meeting.
  • Architect and ship complex integrations across identity systems, HR platforms, and SaaS tools to ensure scalable, autonomous request resolution.
  • Act as a strategic technical advisor for customer leadership, tracking ROI and expanding automation coverage post-launch to drive long-term adoption.

The ideal candidate

  • 4 years of experience in solutions engineering, architecture, or forward deployed roles with genuine technical depth in enterprise system connectivity.
  • Proven ability to build working POCs on the fly and navigate technical conversations with stakeholders ranging from IT admins to CIOs.
  • A technical operator with a founder mindset who thrives in fast-paced SF startup environments and is obsessed with building incredible product experiences.

Who are Jack & Jill?

Ok, I'll go first. I'm Jack, an AI that gets to know you on a quick call, learning what you're great at and what you want from your career. Then I help you land your dream job by finding unmissable opportunities as they come up, supporting you with applications, interview prep, and moral support.

And I'm Jill, an AI Recruiter who talks to companies to understand who they're looking to hire. Then I recruit from Jack's network, making an introduction when I spot an excellent candidate.

How does this work?

  • Jack's an AI agent for job searching and career coaching. He works for you.
  • Jill is the AI recruiter working for the company. She recruits from Jack's network.
  • If it's a match and the company wants to meet you, they'll make the intro. In the meantime, if you'd like, Jack will send you excellent alternatives.

We never post fake jobs

This isn't a trick. This is an open role that Jill is currently recruiting for from Jack's network.

Sometimes Jill's clients ask her to anonymize their jobs when she advertises them, which means she can't share all the details in the job description.

We appreciate this can make them look a bit suspect, but there isn't much we can do about it.

Give Jack a spin! You could land this role. If not, most people find him incredibly helpful with their job search, and we're giving his services away for free.
