Prime Intellect is seeking a Forward Deployed AI Strategy Lead to work directly with strategic customers to identify and implement high-value AI workflows using their platform. This role involves translating customer needs into technical deployments, scoping projects, and driving revenue by turning early experiments into long-term solutions. The ideal candidate will have a strong technical understanding, customer empathy, product judgment, and execution skills, with experience in areas like forward-deployed engineering, AI product strategy, or ML engineering with customer exposure. This is a high-leverage role to help shape the future of AI systems.
Prime Intellect is building the infrastructure that frontier AI labs build internally, and making it available to everyone.
Our platform, Lab, brings together environments, evaluations, sandboxes, verifiers, training, inference, and deployment into one full-stack system for post-training. We help customers move beyond prompting and static benchmarks toward models and agents that improve against their own tools, workflows, and feedback loops.
We train open state-of-the-art models on the same stack we give customers, and we work with some of the most ambitious AI companies, enterprises, and research teams in the world.
Prime Intellect has raised $150M in total funding from Founders Fund, Radical Ventures, NVIDIA, and leading founders and executives from Ramp, Perplexity, Harvey, Mercor, Zapier, Datadog, Cognition, OpenAI, LangChain, Browserbase, Cloudflare, Sierra, Databricks, and more.
We are building the open superintelligence infrastructure stack — and we need people who can bring it into the real world.
The most important AI products of the next decade will not be built by simply renting GPUs or calling an API.
They will be built by teams that can define the right tasks, construct the right environments, measure the right outcomes, run the right post-training loops, and deploy models that improve on real workflows.
Prime Intellect gives customers that capability. Your job is to make it real.
As a Forward Deployed AI Strategy Lead, you will work directly with strategic customers to identify high-value AI workflows, translate them into evals and post-training opportunities, scope technical deployments with Applied Research, and turn early experiments into long-term revenue.
You are part customer owner, part product strategist, part AI systems thinker, and part commercial operator.
You will not sit between the customer and the technical team as a messenger. You will sit with both sides and help invent the answer.
You will lead high-priority customer workstreams from first technical discovery through POC, deployment, expansion, and case study.
You will work with customers who are trying to build agents, automate complex workflows, improve model performance, reduce inference cost, build domain-specific evals, or run frontier-scale post-training.
You will help them answer:
Customers rarely arrive with a perfectly defined problem.
You will take messy conversations, scattered artifacts, internal docs, product goals, and technical constraints, and turn them into crisp scopes that Applied Research and Engineering can actually execute.
You will define:
This role works hand-in-hand with Applied Research.
You will bring customer signal into the research and product roadmap, helping the team identify which evals, environments, agents, and post-training recipes matter most in the field.
You will help prioritize work that can both advance the frontier and unlock meaningful customer outcomes.
You should be excited to spend time around questions like:
Every strategic deployment should make the next one easier.
You will help build the operating system for Prime Intellect’s applied AI motion:
You will help turn one-off customer wins into a repeatable category.
This is a customer-facing role with real revenue responsibility.
You will work with leadership to move customers through qualification, legal, scoping, proposal, procurement, POC, deployment, and expansion.
You should be comfortable owning senior customer relationships, creating urgency, writing crisp follow-ups, navigating internal and external stakeholders, and making sure important deals do not die in ambiguity.
We are looking for people who are unusually strong across technical understanding, customer empathy, product judgment, and execution.
You might be a strong fit if you have experience in:
You should have:
This is one of the highest-leverage roles at Prime Intellect.
The frontier is moving from models to systems: agents, environments, evals, training loops, and deployment infrastructure. Most companies know they need to adapt models to their own workflows, but they do not know how to turn that ambition into a working system.
You will be the person who helps them get there.
You will work on customer problems that are technically real, commercially urgent, and strategically important. You will help shape the product, close the revenue, and define the emerging category of full-stack post-training infrastructure.
This is a role for builders who want to be close to the frontier and close to the market.
Apply to help Prime Intellect turn ambitious customer workflows into post-training systems, revenue, and the foundation for open superintelligence.
