Deployment Strategist, Future Platforms | Housing

📋 Job Overview

As an Deployment Strategist on the Future Platforms team, you'll help found and scale a critical new function at EliseAI: taking our future platform products from early customer promise to live, adopted, business-impacting deployments. This is a cross-functional, high-autonomy role that centers on strategic execution, with real influence over the product and the motion around it.

🏢 About EliseAI

At EliseAI, we're improving the industries that matter most: housing and healthcare. Everyone needs a place to live and access to quality healthcare, yet both are often harder to secure than they should be. By integrating AI agents deeply into existing workflows, we make them more efficient, reduce costs, and improve the experience for everyone. We recently raised a $250 million Series E round led by Andreessen Horowitz to accelerate this mission.

🎯 The Role

You'll act as the primary driver of engagement success: building alignment across complex customer stakeholder groups, guiding high-stakes implementation and workflow decisions, and coordinating tightly with Product and Engineering to translate real-world needs into clear requirements and shipped improvements. Because this platform is early-stage and scaling quickly, you'll run engagements and help systematize how we do them, building repeatable playbooks, processes, and systems that let us scale rapidly without losing quality.

✅ Key Responsibilities

• Own engagement success end-to-end: Serve as the primary driver of customer deployments from late-stage sales handoff through launch and post-launch stabilization; ensure outcomes, timelines, and stakeholder alignment
• Lead discovery, scoping, and decisioning: Translate fuzzy goals into crisp requirements, workflows, success metrics, and rollout plans; guide customers through tradeoffs, product constraints, and adoption choices
• Run the execution motion: Hold a full book of concurrent deployments at different stages; coordinate internal teams and client stakeholders; keep cadence, risk tracking, and launch readiness current on every one without dropping threads
• Configuration and launch: Collaborate with product operations, engineering, and training teams to drive product configuration, data migration, launch, and successful adoption
• Support change management: Partner with client leadership on communicating the change through their organization, and identify where workflows or incentives need to shift for adoption to stick
• Inform product development: Bring net-new workflow and product requirements to Product/Engineering, grounded in scoping learnings, customer input, and real-world usage
• Contribute to the playbook: Feed lessons from engagements into the processes and templates that improve speed and quality as we scale
• Support sales and expansion: Participate in later-stage sales and pre-sales discovery to set up successful engagements; help scope realistic engagements and identify follow-on opportunities

📌 Required Qualifications

• 3–5 years running enterprise software implementations, platform migrations, or technology transformation programs, for example implementation and delivery roles at enterprise SaaS companies, technology consulting, or systems integration
• Demonstrated track record of taking enterprise deployments live: you can speak to specific implementations you’ve owned, the obstacles you hit, and how you got to launch
• Strong technical aptitude and comfort working with complex systems and workflows
• Exceptional stakeholder management and communication skills, with the ability to influence without authority
• Proven ability to handle ambiguity, make data-driven decisions, and adapt quickly to changing requirements
• Experience building and scaling processes, playbooks, and systems from scratch

⭐ Desirable Experience

• Experience in the housing or healthcare industries
• Experience with AI or automation technologies
• Experience leading cross-functional teams
• Experience with product management or product operations

🎁 Benefits

We’re scaling fast, solving real client problems with precision and ambition. Here, you own your impact; full autonomy, no micromanagement, no fluff. We hire the best, expect the best, and give you the masterclass of your career. It’s hard, it’s intense, and it’s the most rewarding work you’ll ever do. If you’re hungry, driven, and ready to build something massive, climb aboard.
