About the role
- the team, playbooks, and operating cadence that let us run many deployments at once
- Most companies treat deployments as a cost center between sale and renewal.
- they're the engine of the company: the place where client trust is earned and where the
Responsibilities
- Lead 2-4 of Brain Co.'s most complex government deployments personally while overseeing the broader portfolio as the team grows.
- Drive adoption and change management, including stakeholder onboarding, training, operating-model changes, and sustained use after go-live.
- Build durable relationships with mayors, city managers, CIOs, agency heads, program leaders, and frontline users, so issues surface early and Brain Co. becomes a trusted operating partner.
- Partner with sales team on renewal and expansion by translating proven deployment outcomes into the next highest-value use case, without losing scope discipline.
- Hire, develop, and manage deployment leads as volume grows, setting the bar for what great looks like by doing it first.
Requirements
- Demonstrated experience taking an AI/ML, data, or other complex technical product from ambiguous problem framing through production use and adoption.
- Product instinct: you can distinguish a configuration request from a product insight, and you've worked closely enough with product/engineering teams to speak their language and earn their trust.
- Comfort with 30-50% travel and genuine enthusiasm for working inside government buildings with the people who run them.
- Familiarity with government procurement, security reviews, and contracting norms.
- Experience deploying AI/ML products.
- Experience hiring and managing delivery teams.
Compensation
- Competitive compensation including salary, equity, and performance incentives.
Benefits
- Define a value case and learning agenda for each deployment and product line, including impact hypotheses, baselines, adoption measures, and success KPIs.
Company info
- the place where client trust is earned and where the
- product learns fastest.
- The person who runs that engine well will shape Brain Co.'s product,
- reputation, and growth more than almost anyone else here.
- This is a player-coach role.
- You will personally lead 2-4 of our most complex deployments
- while overseeing the broader portfolio as the team grows.
- You will operate at the
- intersection of deployment and product development: translating agency workflows into
- buildable AI solutions, orchestrating cross-functional delivery, and turning field evidence
- into reusable product capabilities.
- The role knits together two concurrent mandates:
- Client experience, end to end. You own the client's experience across the full arc-from the sales rep's first handoff, through relationship-building with mayors, city managers, CIOs, agency heads, and their teams, through deployment quality and adoption, to renewal and expansion. Clients should experience one coherent Brain Co., not a relay race between sales, delivery, product, and engineering.
- Deployments as product R&D. Every deployment is a structured opportunity to mature the product. You will work with Product and Engineering to decide-deliberately, before kickoff-what each deployment should teach us, then run the deployment so it produces that learning: which workflows generalize, which configurations should become product, which client asks are one-offs versus roadmap signal. You turn the accident of "field feedback" into an intentional product-maturation engine.
