Engagement Manager, Public Sector (Columbia, MD)

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 with a Full Scope Polygraph 
• 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
• Ability to be forward deployed and willingness to travel 25% (50% travel is a nice to have)
