About the Role

We are an early-stage AI technology startup seeking a Senior AI Startup Strategist to help guide the company from initial concept through market validation and MVP definition.

This is a non-technical, strategy-focused role centered on market clarity, customer validation, and early-stage decision-making. You will work closely with founders to ensure the product direction is grounded in real customer needs and viable market opportunities.

This role is ideal for a senior operator or advisor with proven 0→1 startup experience who thrives in ambiguous, early-stage environments.

Key Responsibilities

  • Conduct comprehensive market research and competitive analysis
  • Define ideal customer profiles (ICP) and core buyer pain points
  • Validate AI use cases through customer discovery and interviews
  • Collaborate on MVP scope definition, product roadmap, and positioning
  • Shape go-to-market strategy and early traction plans
  • Support investor-facing narratives, strategic planning, and key business decisions

Qualifications

  • 10+ years of experience in startup strategy, product strategy, or venture building
  • Demonstrated 0→1 startup experience as a founder, advisor, or venture builder
  • Strong expertise in market discovery, product-market fit, and go-to-market strategy
  • Experience working with AI-enabled and/or SaaS products (technical depth not required)
  • Comfortable operating hands-on in fast-moving, early-stage environments

Preferred Backgrounds

  • Startup Advisor or Venture Builder
  • Former Founder or Head of Product
  • Venture Studio Partner or Entrepreneur-in-Residence
  • Product Strategy or Market Research Consultant

Location & Engagement

  • Location: Miami–Fort Lauderdale preferred (remote candidates considered)
  • Engagement Type: Fractional / Advisory / Contract
  • Growth Potential: Opportunity for long-term involvement as the company scales
