Location: 1 Kendall Square, Cambridge, MA (Onsite role)

Compensation: $140,000–$180,000 + equity

We are hiring a Senior AI Solutions Consultant to be the technical bridge between Blitzy's AI platform and enterprise engineering teams. This role is built for experienced technologists who understand the complexities of enterprise software development and are ready to move into a customer-facing role where technical expertise directly drives business outcomes.

You'll work with VPs of Engineering, CTOs, and technical leaders at Fortune 500 companies and high-growth enterprises. When they discuss CI/CD pipelines, microservices architecture, technical debt, or SDLC challenges, you'll speak their language fluently—and translate their complex technical environments into successful Blitzy implementations that fundamentally change how they build software.

What Success Looks Like

• You are the trusted technical advisor to enterprise engineering teams—earning credibility through deep, hands-on understanding of their environment and challenges
• You lead technical deep-dives with engineering teams that convert skepticism into conviction, addressing concerns about AI-generated code quality, security, and integration
• You design and execute proofs-of-concept that demonstrate measurable ROI within the customer's specific technical environment
• You guide enterprises smoothly from traditional development to AI-augmented software creation, reducing friction at every stage
• You serve as the technical voice of the customer internally—influencing product roadmap and ensuring Blitzy continues to meet enterprise requirements
• You close the loop between technical success and commercial growth, partnering tightly with the sales team throughout complex enterprise cycles

• Hands-on experience with modern development practices: Agile/Scrum, DevOps, CI/CD, and microservices
• Fluency in enterprise technology: cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, Azure), containerization, API design, and security protocols
• Experience working within or selling to enterprise organizations, with an understanding of enterprise buying processes, compliance requirements, and decision-making dynamics
• Exceptional ability to explain complex technical concepts to audiences ranging from individual contributors to C-level executives

• This role offers a rare career path for experienced technologists who want to maintain deep technical credibility while developing strategic customer-facing skills
• You'll have direct mentorship from our CTO and CRO, with a clear progression path toward Director and VP-level leadership roles as Blitzy scales
• Your work has dual impact: every successful implementation drives customer transformation and directly shapes the Blitzy product roadmap
• Meaningful equity in one of the fastest-growing AI companies in the U.S., backed by tier 1 investors, with compensation reflecting the seniority and scope of the role
