You will operate with high autonomy in evolving markets, structuring new business models and driving cross-functional alignment across product, tech, and strategy teams.

Identify, research, and evaluate prospective technology partners to assess market synergy, strategic fit, and joint value creation.
Build 0-to-1 partnership theses and commercial models around emerging technologies, including scenarios where standard constructs do not yet exist.
Partner with internal strategy, product, and engineering teams to align partner capabilities directly with product roadmaps.
Design pilot programs, define joint value propositions, and resolve operational roadblocks to launch strategic collaborative initiatives.
What you'll bring Required qualifications
Minimum 10 years of experience in strategic partnerships, technology alliances, or business development within a high-growth software, tech, or AI ecosystem.
Proven track record of independently structuring and executing complex, non-standard technology partnerships and commercial business models from scratch.
Deep understanding of the software and AI landscape, with demonstrated ability to engage credibly with senior executives, product leaders, and technical teams.
Strong strategic and commercial judgment focused on ecosystem leverage, framing, and long-term enterprise fit rather than transactional sales.
