Our mission is to automate coding. The first step in our journey is to build the best tool for professional programmers, using a combination of inventive research, design, and engineering. Our organization is very flat, and our team is small and talent dense. We particularly like people who are truth-seeking, passionate, and creative. We enjoy spirited debate, crazy ideas, and shipping code. SpaceXAI’s mission is to create AI systems that can accurately understand the universe and aid humanity in its pursuit of knowledge. Our team is small, highly motivated, and focused on engineering excellence. This organization is for individuals who appreciate challenging themselves and thrive on curiosity. We operate with a flat organizational structure. All employees are expected to be hands-on and to contribute directly to the company’s mission. Leadership is given to those who show initiative and consistently deliver excellence. Work ethic and strong prioritization skills are important. All employees are expected to have strong communication skills. They should be able to concisely and accurately share knowledge with their teammates. About the position Strategic alliances across hyperscalers, data platforms, and AI ecosystems are a major growth lever for SpaceXAI. We are seeking a Strategic Alliances GTM Lead to own the sales-facing GTM operating system across AWS, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud, Snowflake, Databricks, and emerging strategic AI platforms. This is not a single-partner alliance management role. You will work alongside the Global Cloud Alliance Leaders, Enterprise Sales, GTM Technical, Product, and Partner Marketing to turn alliance strategy, integrations, joint solutions, and partner relationships into measurable commercial execution. You will own how we co-sell, enable sellers, map accounts, create new routes to market, forecast pipeline, activate joint solutions, and scale successful plays across the partner ecosystem. You will work directly with Enterprise Sales to determine where partners can help sellers enter accounts faster, navigate organizations more effectively, reach the right buyers, expand opportunities, and accelerate revenue. The Global Cloud Alliance Leaders own the partner: strategy, executive relationships, Product alignment, integrations, joint business planning, and partner investment. You activate that portfolio across the field. This is scoped as an IC at hire, with a path to team lead as the Strategic Tech Alliances org scales. We believe collaboration thrives in person, so while this role can be remote, we expect periodic travel to our offices — cozy spaces in North Beach, San Francisco and Manhattan, New York, complete with well-stocked libraries — along with the regular travel this role typically involves.
