Enterprise Deployment Strategist (AI/ML Product)
Pallet is building AI Agents to transform the physical economy — a $12 trillion global industry. We've raised $50M from top investors, including General Catalyst, Bessemer Venture Partners, and Bain Capital Ventures. In under two years, we've achieved 700% revenue growth and are focused on automating manual workflows that slow supply chain teams down, from scheduling and appointment setting to data entry and load management. Our flagship platform provides end-to-end visibility, control, and optimization, while our newest product, CoPallet, introduces AI Agents that execute requests in real time and integrate directly with customer systems.
About the Role
As Pallet scales into larger, more complex enterprise and mid-market customers, deployments become higher-stakes: more stakeholders, evolving requirements, real change management, and real consequences if things break. The Deployment Strategist owns customer deployments end-to-end, from discovery and workflow design through execution, go-live, and long-term success. You are the connective tissue between customers, Agent Delivery Engineers, Product, Sales, and Success. You ensure customers feel confident, informed, and supported, even as workflows, product capabilities, and internal processes continue to evolve. This is a highly client-facing, high-ownership role for senior operators who thrive under pressure and ambiguity.
