AI Activation Lead

Full-time

MathCo

About MathCo

The Math Company (MathCo) is a global leader in building custom AI, data, and analytics solutions that enable enterprises to transform decision‑making. Our hybrid consulting + product model empowers organizations to scale AI responsibly, accelerate value creation, and build long‑term capability. With teams across North America, India, and Europe, we partner with Fortune 500 companies to solve high‑impact business problems using modern data platforms and enterprise‑grade AI.

About the Role

The Lead, AI Activation (US) drives enterprise adoption of AI across the North America region. In this role, you will translate AI platform capabilities into business outcomes, partnering closely with global teams and cross‑functional business teams. You will serve as the regional bridge between data engineering, AI platform teams, and senior business stakeholders — ensuring that AI solutions are understood, prioritized, and successfully deployed.

This role requires structured communication, strong executive presence, and the ability to influence without direct authority. You will help shape the AI roadmap, guide teams on when to use agents, skills, or workflows, and ensure that AI implementations deliver measurable impact.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead AI activation across the US region , partnering with global engineering teams to deliver and scale AI use cases.
  • Translate technical concepts into business narratives that resonate with senior leaders — connecting platform capabilities to commercial outcomes.
  • Drive cross‑functional roadmaps , aligning priorities across product, data, engineering, operations, and business teams.
  • Serve as the regional liaison to the AI platform team , interpreting their roadmap and communicating implications for business units.
  • Support end‑to‑end AI implementation , from problem framing and solution design to deployment, measurement, and adoption.
  • Enable teams through demos, training, and structured communication , building confidence and accelerating usage.
  • Identify opportunities to leverage Databricks, GCP, and Gemini Enterprise , guiding teams on how these components fit into enterprise workflows.
  • Champion responsible AI usage and day‑to‑day productivity improvements across business functions.

What You Bring

  • Executive presence & structured thinking — clear frameworks, crisp communication, and the ability to articulate “the three or four things I’d do — and why.”
  • AI fluency — comfort with foundational concepts (agents, skills, workflows, retrieval, evaluation) and how they apply to enterprise use cases.
  • Stakeholder management — experience influencing cross‑functional teams and moving priorities forward without direct authority.
  • Business translation — demonstrated ability to convert technical AI work into outcomes that matter to business leaders.
  • Industry experience in retail, CPG, or pharma — a strong advantage given the client landscape.

Context That Helps You Stand Out

  • An end‑to‑end AI implementation you led: the problem, the solution, and the measurable impact.
  • A time you set or drove a roadmap with competing priorities.
  • How you use AI personally in your day‑to‑day work.
  • A moment you explained a technical concept to a non‑technical executive.

  • Familiarity with Databricks , GCP , or Gemini Enterprise .
  • Experience working across retail, CPG, or pharma environments.
  • Comfort operating in global, cross‑time‑zone teams .

Why Join MathCo?

  • Work on high-impact strategic initiatives with leading global organizations.
  • Exposure to cutting-edge AI, analytics, and decision intelligence solutions.
  • Accelerated career growth and learning opportunities.
  • Collaborative, entrepreneurial, and innovation-driven culture.
  • Opportunity to shape the future of data-driven decision-making.
