About the role

AI models are smart enough. What they don't have is an understanding of how a specific company’s business actually runs. The AI Strategist's job is to close that gap for Edra’s customers.

  • 2+ years in a deployment, solutions, or customer-facing product role at a high-growth technology company
  • Fluency with AI. You already use these tools in your own work and have a feel for where they're strong and where they fall apart on messy, real-world inputs
  • You have experience operating independently in unstructured environments, and have owned outcomes, not just tasks
  • Dropped into an unfamiliar problem, your instinct is to ask questions and break it down before pitching a solution
  • You treat a skeptical operator's objections as rational, because they usually are, and you'd rather spend a day watching someone work than read their process doc
  • You're comfortable working directly with messy operational data, and you draw conclusions from it that hold up to scrutiny

You embed with a customer, learn how the work actually happens (not how the org chart says it happens), and find where Edra creates the most value. You scope the deployment, run it, measure it, and bring what you learn back to product and engineering, specific enough that they can build on it. The domain changes from one customer to the next—a service desk, a compliance team, a sales...
