Engagement Lead, Future Platforms | Housing
About the role
The Engagement Lead on the Future Platforms team will help found and scale a critical new function at EliseAI: taking our future platform products from early customer promise to live, adopted, business-impacting deployments. This is a cross-functional, high-autonomy role that sits at the intersection of product, strategy, and execution.
Key Responsibilities
Own engagement success end-to-end: Serve as the primary driver of customer deployments from late-stage sales handoff through launch and post-launch stabilization; ensure outcomes, timelines, and stakeholder alignment.
Support sales and expansion: Participate in later-stage sales and pre-sales discovery to set up successful engagements; help scope realistic engagements and identify follow-on opportunities.
Lead discovery, scoping, and decisioning: Translate fuzzy goals into crisp requirements, workflows, success metrics, and rollout plans; guide customers through tradeoffs, product constraints, and adoption choices.
Run the execution motion: Maintain multi-threaded project plans under ambiguity; coordinate across internal teams and external stakeholders; create clear operating cadences, risk tracking, and launch readiness.
Configuration and launch: Collaborate with product operations, engineering, and training teams to drive product configuration, data migration, launch, and successful adoption.
Inform and support product development: Partner with Product/Engineering to define net-new product workflows and requirements and help shape the product roadmap—based on scoping learnings, customer input, and real-world usage.
Build the scalable playbook: Turn lessons from engagements into repeatable processes, templates, and systems—improving speed and quality as we scale.
Attract top-tier talent to join our driven team
Requirements
We're looking for intensely driven, founder-minded leaders who want to test themselves and build something transformational. You likely have:
5–8 years of experience in management consulting, corporate strategy, product management, and/or founder/operator roles at high-growth startups
Strong technical intuition, demonstrated by STEM degree or equivalent technical background
Proven ability to take ownership and operate autonomously with strong judgement in fast-paced, ambiguous environments
Proven ability to independently manage complex projects end-to-end in a client facing setting
Excellent communication and ability to naturally build strong relationships and influence across internal and external stakeholders
Willingness to travel ~1x per month for ~3 days
Willingness to work in person at our office 4-5 days a week
Why Join
Growth and impact. It’s not often that you can get in on the ground floor of a funded (unicorn!) startup that’s scaling so fast. That means that instead of following a playbook, you’ll be writing it.
Every single day you will be challenged to identify how we can scale and execute on it. You’ll learn what works when you succeed and what doesn’t when you fail. Either way, the rest of the team will be here to support you.
