Company Overview

A nonprofit research and philanthropic institution recognized for its long-standing commitment to scientific discovery is investing in a newly formed function dedicated to embedding AI into how the organization operates day to day. This team sits close to the executive suite, reporting through senior leadership, which reflects the strategic weight placed on this work. The culture favors integration over isolation. Developers here are woven into delivery teams alongside engineers, architects, and business partners, rather than siloed off to work on narrow pieces of a larger puzzle. As this function scales, it is building out the team that will define how AI moves from idea to production across the organization.

Position Overview

This is a rare opportunity to help stand up a brand new AI function from the ground up, with direct visibility to executive leadership and a mandate to change how a respected research institution operates. First, the scope is genuinely full lifecycle: model selection, evaluation design, deployment, and operations all fall under one seat, not split across teams. Second, the impact is immediate and visible, since the systems built here will be adopted across administrative and operational functions organization-wide. Third, the growth trajectory is real. The team is expanding beyond this initial hiring round, and early members will shape the patterns, architecture, and culture the function scales on.

Position Responsibilities

• Design and build production AI systems embedded within a delivery team, working alongside engineers, architects, and business partners to ship collaboratively rather than in isolation.
• Select the right technical approach for each problem, whether that means a large language model with retrieval, a gradient boosted tree, or a well featured regression model, and be able to defend that choice with sound reasoning.
• Build within established reference architectures and shared engineering patterns, contributing improvements back to the team when gaps are identified.
• Design evaluation methodology before any system reaches production, covering precision, recall, calibration, drift, business outcome metrics, and A/B testing where appropriate.
• Own deployment and operations end to end, including CI/CD, infrastructure as code, observability, and cost, with production considerations built in from the first commit.
• Partner with receiving teams on handoff, including documentation, runbooks, on call posture, and ownership transition, so systems remain operable by others.
• Translate technical trade-offs for business stakeholders while also communicating at a peer level with engineering teams, moving fluidly between both audiences.

Position Qualifications

Required:

• A demonstrated track record of shipping production enterprise systems, with clear ownership of outcomes from design through operation.
• 6 or more years of hands-on software engineering experience, including at least 3 years building and shipping production machine learning or deep learning systems, with at least 2 years of that experience beyond generative AI specifically.
• Strong proficiency in Java and/or Python.
• Hands-on experience with classical machine learning techniques (gradient boosting, regression, clustering, tree based methods, dimensionality reduction) as well as deep learning.
• Experience designing evaluation frameworks for production ML systems, including offline and online evaluation, A/B testing, and statistical inference.
• Fluency with infrastructure as code (Terraform or comparable), container orchestration, and CI/CD, with the ability to work across AWS, Azure, and GCP without dependence on a single provider.
• Familiarity with agentic AI frameworks such as LangGraph or Strands.

Preferred:

• Experience with front end frameworks such as React, for building end to end user facing AI features.
• Production experience with vector databases, retrieval systems, or knowledge graphs.
• Familiarity with MLOps tooling, including model registries, feature stores, or training pipeline orchestration.
• Prior experience in research, academic, or mission driven institutional environments.
• Background as a forward deployed engineer or solutions engineer, comfortable being client facing while owning technical delivery.

Compensation Range: $145,000 – $200,000 plus a competitive benefits package.

VP of Sales

On Site – Folsom, CA (Relocation Support Offered)

Our client is redefining behavioral health infrastructure by connecting assessment and care planning data across the agencies and providers that serve the same individual, replacing a patchwork of disconnected systems that were never built to talk to each other. This is a mission driven company where the buyer sits at agency leadership level and success is measured in outcomes for vulnerable populations, not just revenue. The organization has built a defensible market position with sole source government contracts that competitors cannot easily replicate, and has grown revenue roughly five fold over the past several quarters while moving from cash negative to consistently profitable in under a year. Based in Northern California and led by a lean, hands on executive team, the company recently turned down a significant acquisition offer to pursue an independent growth path, and is now looking for a Vice President of Sales to build the revenue engine that fuels its next phase of growth.

Position Overview

This is a rare, high visibility opportunity to build a sales function from the ground up at a company with proven product market fit and real momentum. You will report directly to the CEO, personally own and close the provider pipeline in the early phase, and then build the playbook, process, and team that scales that motion across California and new states. Your work will directly shape how the company’s platform reaches the clinicians, clinics, and agencies who depend on it, giving you outsized influence over both revenue growth and the company’s mission impact. For a builder who wants to move from individual production into sales leadership, this role offers a clear path to grow into a scaled sales organization as the company expands from an initial cohort of provider partners toward its next phase of growth.

Position Responsibilities

• Build and execute a go to market strategy for selling directly to behavioral health provider organizations across California and expansion states

• Personally own and close a provider pipeline, from prospecting through contract, using consultative, discovery based selling rather than a scripted hard close

• Understand the payer landscape, including Medicare, Medicaid managed care, and commercial insurers, so provider conversations connect naturally to how those providers get paid

• Translate the platform’s value into financial and budget terms each provider organization can act on

• Engage clinicians on their own terms, asking questions about workflow and patients rather than pitching features

• Extend the go to market motion beyond individual provider offices to systems of care accounts, including county behavioral health systems, school based programs, and multi site provider networks

• Partner with the CEO and CFO on pricing, compensation structure, and the broader outcomes narrative used with government and payer stakeholders

• Build the sales function over time, including process, tooling, and eventually a team, as provider adoption scales

• Collaborate with marketing, product, and customer success to align go to market execution with company strategy

• Analyze market trends and competitor activity to identify new business opportunities

Position Qualifications

Required:

• A proven, closable track record selling directly to behavioral health or human services provider organizations, in California and at least one other state

• A minimum of 10 years of relevant sales experience, including at least 3 years in sales leadership

• Direct experience selling into systems of care accounts, such as county behavioral health systems, school based programs, or child welfare agencies, not only individual practices

• Working knowledge of Medicare and Medicaid managed care economics and commercial payer dynamics, and how payer mix shapes a provider’s buying decisions

• Demonstrated ability to build and defend a provider facing ROI case in financial terms credible to a clinic administrator or practice owner

• A builder’s track record, having stood up or scaled a sales function or team previously, not only carried an individual quota

Preferred:

• Working familiarity with EHR systems used in behavioral health and the broader health IT landscape, including interoperability concepts

• Experience operating in a smaller, fast growing organization where the sales function is being built rather than inherited

• A genuinely consultative selling style=””>If you’re ready to build a sales function from the ground up and make a measurable impact on how care reaches the people who need it most, we’d love to hear from you.
