We are looking for innovative thinkers with a passion for AI and a desire to make a tangible impact. The ideal candidate will possess strong analytical and problem-solving skills, along with a proven ability to collaborate effectively with diverse teams.

About the role

Who We Are:

At Tenex Labs, we unite builders, operators, and innovators to empower the world's most ambitious companies in overcoming their most significant challenges. We work at the intersection of strategic thinking and engineering, integrating dedicated teams directly into organizations to translate complex, high-stakes problems into tangible, measurable outcomes. We prioritize collaboration over traditional presentations; we immerse ourselves alongside our clients to drive real change.

Our pace is that of a startup, combined with the discipline of leading firms globally. Our culture thrives on intellectual curiosity, radical accountability, and the understanding that outstanding work emerges from diverse teams empowered to question norms, accelerate progress, and uphold high standards. If you aspire to engage in meaningful projects with individuals who elevate your skills, Tenex Labs is your ideal environment.

The Role:

As an AI Strategist at Tenex Labs, you will serve as the vital link between our clients' objectives and concrete, measurable results. You will collaborate closely with executives and operational teams to identify bottlenecks, highlight significant opportunities, and transform business challenges into actionable, AI-driven solutions. Your work will encompass diagnostic assessments, product sprints, and hands-on implementation, ensuring that AI transitions from concept to daily operations, delivering significant impact within weeks rather than months.

What You’ll Do:

  • AI Strategy Audits: Lead 2-4 week diagnostic projects to analyze workflows, quantify challenges, identify data assets, and prioritize high-ROI AI opportunities. Present executive-ready evaluations that rank initiatives based on impact and effort, along with a clear, phased execution roadmap.

  • Product & Strategy Sprints: Design and facilitate focused sprints that combine customer insights, data analysis, product strategy, rapid prototyping, and implementation planning, enabling decisions in weeks instead of quarters.

  • Workflow Automation & AI Build: Collaborate closely with Forward-Deployed Engineers to design and implement automated and AI-enhanced workflows utilizing off-the-shelf SaaS tools, low-code platforms, and Tenex’s proprietary capabilities.

  • Change Management & Enablement: Spearhead training and enablement initiatives that transform prototypes into daily processes. Assess adoption, refine user experiences, and cultivate internal advocates to ensure sustained long-term impact.
