Description

Scale AI is at the forefront of the AI revolution, helping the U.S. government unlock the potential of AI across national security missions. We’re building enterprise-grade generative AI solutions and delivering them into operational use cases that matter.

 

We’re hiring an engagement manager (EM) to lead and coordinate delivery of agentic workflows for a national security customer. As an EM on our public sector delivery team, you will own or support a large account plan, manage day-to-day execution for customers, and ensure an incredible customer experience. This role is ideal for someone who blends program leadership, customer relationship building, technical fluency, and contract awareness — and who thrives in fast-moving, ambiguous, and mission-driven environments.

 

You will:

  • Manage customer relationships from the executive to the end user
  • Work alongside customers to scope agentic workflow use cases that Scale’s engineering team will build and you will ultimately refine
  • Lead or support a cross-functional project team to deliver on and exceed the customer's AI/ML objectives
  • Lead with a “whatever-it-takes” mentality, proactively identifying customer needs and operator pain points to ensure customer success
  • Oversee onboarding and successful implementation of customer accounts

 

We have a diverse team with a variety of skill sets, many have:

  • A technical background (education or professional experience with computer science, economics, statistics, engineering)
  • A proven track record in B2B client-facing roles and expanding client relationships
  • Prior experience owning the technical implementation of solutions to the government 

Must haves:

  • An active TS/SCI clearance
  • 3+ years of work experience succeeding in stakeholder management or a customer-facing role delivering enterprise-scale applications / solutions
  • A track record of structured, analytics-driven problem solving
  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills
  • Willingness to be onsite with customers up to 4 days per week in the DMV area and / or prepared to travel a minimum of 25%
