You’ll start by building — and grow into building a team.

This is an opportunity of a lifetime for someone who wants to be at the heart of the AI movement to better humanity. As the VP, Solutions (Pre-Sales) you’ll be working directly with our CEO, CTO and the executive team to shape the future of Kizen and guide our customers on their AI journey.

  • Personally designing and building working prototypes for new, high-potential use cases using the Kizen platform
  • Leading business discovery and translating complex requirements into clear, actionable technical documentation
  • Supporting demos and addressing technical solution questions in pre-sales cycles for both new and existing use cases
  • Scoping and estimating solution architecture needs, integrations, and implementation effort across enterprise engagements
  • Acting as the bridge between sales, product, and implementation — owning technical conversations and planning that set the stage for successful hand-offs to the implementation team
  • Building and scaling a Solutions team after demonstrating repeated success and understanding of the platform yourself (player/coach)
  • Continuously identifying opportunities for innovation, optimization, and integration across industries and verticals
  • Developing clear pictures of the current state of the tech stack in large enterprises, helping them understand future state, and charting a clear course from today to where they want to be
  • Working with large enterprises and architecting digital and process transformation - you must be able to build coalitions across diverse groups with different goals

Minimum Requirements — What You Bring

  • 10+ years of experience in enterprise consulting, solution architecture, and pre-sales engineering in a SaaS or tech-enabled services environment
  • Strong consulting background — with a deep understanding of business processes, operations, and workflow optimization
  • Experience designing data models and integrations (APIs, ETL processes), particularly between systems like EMRs, CRMs, ERPs, etc.
  • Demonstrated ability to write clear business and technical requirements and translate them into prototypes or POCs
  • Hands-on technology implementation skills (configuring, testing, iterating SaaS solutions)
  • Strong enterprise sales acumen — with the ability to build trust, influence stakeholders, and support long sales cycles
  • Fast learner able to quickly ramp into new industries and use cases with confidence and curiosity
  • Detail-oriented, organized, and process-driven — able to juggle multiple pre-sales engagements with clarity
  • Executive presence with excellent verbal, written, and visual communication skills
  • Proven experience managing or mentoring technical or solution-oriented teams

Ideal Candidate will have:  

  • Experience in regulated industries like healthcare, insurance, or financial services
  • Familiarity with low-code platforms
  • Understanding of AI, ML, and automation concepts (we can teach this!)
  • Familiarity with cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, Azure) and modern software development workflows

You’ll Thrive in This Role If You:

  • Want to help solve the last mile delivery problem with AI and help all stakeholders significantly improve their experiences 
  • Love turning ambiguous problems into real, working systems
  • Excel at navigating both technical detail and strategic business goals
  • Enjoy building things from scratch and setting standards for others to follow
  • Can roll up your sleeves to help a deal close and a client succeed — and inspire others to do the same
  • Are energized by growth, experimentation, and fast-paced environments
  • Want to be part of a company shaping the future of intelligent systems and enterprise platforms

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
