\
We’re looking for a **Founding Deployment Strategist** to work directly with the CEO, Head of Business Operations, and founding team to maximize the impact of our AI platform in mission-critical settings.
\
Half-builder, half org mapper, half user whisperer (yes, this will take 1.5x effort), you can win both hearts and minds, and build workflows—driving the future of Closure in direct contract with our users.
This is not a back-office, armchair philosopher, or support function: this is core to our product integrity, vision, and customer footprint. First-principles thinking about ideal user experiences is a must, but must be met with execution—directly with customer deliverables, SteerCos, product mockups, and on customer trainings.
Your work here matters to how AI is adopted by public safety agencies.
* **About You**
* **High Pace:** You get things done quickly, reliably, and with attention to detail.
* **Excellent Communication:** You are able to communicate ideas with executive stakeholders and line-level users alike, both verbally and through clear artifacts and deliverables, often in-person.
* **Analytical:** You solve hard problems, and use tools to solve them; while not a data scientist, you figure out how to do data analysis or other technical things.
* **Mission-Driven:** You’re excited to contribute to public safety and improving the effectiveness of U.S. law enforcement and prosecutors.
* **Owner Mentality:** You take responsibility naturally, don’t wait to be asked, and feel uncomfortable when things are sloppy or unclear.
* **Low-Ego, High-Standards:** You’re happy to do the “unsexy” work if it moves the company forward.
* **Location:**
* New York City
* Bay Area, California (hybrid work arrangements available)
