Forward Deployed AI Research Consultant

About Cookiy AI Cookiy AI is building the future of enterprise research. Our Agentic Voice AI platform enables organizations to conduct qualitative research faster, at greater scale, and with richer insights than ever before. But adopting AI isn't simply about replacing existing tools—it's about rethinking how research organizations operate. That's why we're building a new kind of consulting team. About the Role We're looking for experienced researchers, consultants, and strategic problem solvers to become our first Forward Deployed AI Research Consultants. You'll work directly with Fortune 500 companies, global brands, and leading consulting firms to help modernize how they generate customer insights. This isn't a traditional market research role. It isn't customer success. And it isn't software sales. Instead, you'll act as a trusted advisor to research, insights, analytics, product, innovation, and marketing leaders—helping them evaluate existing research programs, identify opportunities for AI adoption, redesign research workflows, and build AI-native research capabilities. While this is a quota-carrying position, your success will come from becoming a strategic partner who creates measurable business impact, not by delivering product demos alone. What You'll Do Partner with enterprise executives to understand how research and insights are conducted across their organization. Evaluate existing qualitative and quantitative research workflows and identify opportunities for AI transformation. Advise clients on where AI can augment, automate, or redesign research methodologies while maintaining research quality and rigor. Design future-state research operating models that combine human expertise with AI. Lead discovery workshops, executive briefings, and AI transformation engagements. Develop strategic recommendations tailored to each client's organizational maturity and business objectives. Collaborate with Product and Engineering to influence the evolution of Cookiy AI based on enterprise customer needs. Drive commercial expansion by identifying additional transformation opportunities across business units. Represent Cookiy AI as a thought leader at client meetings, industry conferences, and executive roundtables. What We're Looking For You likely bring experience from one or more of the following: Market Research Consumer Insights UX Research Management Consulting Analytics Customer Experience Preferred Qualifications 5–10+ years of experience in consulting, research, insights, analytics, or enterprise advisory. Strong understanding of qualitative and quantitative research methodologies. Experience working with enterprise or Fortune 1000 clients.

Comfortable navigating ambiguity and building new playbooks in a high-growth startup. Bonus Points Experience at firms such as McKinsey, Bain, BCG, Deloitte, Accenture, EY-Parthenon, Kantar, Ipsos, NielsenIQ, Gartner, Forrester, or leading enterprise SaaS companies. Experience leading organizational transformation or change management initiatives. Experience implementing AI or analytics solutions within enterprise organizations. Why Join Cookiy AI? This is an opportunity to define an entirely new profession. As one of our first Forward Deployed AI Research Consultants, you'll help shape how the world's leading organizations transition from traditional research models to AI-native research organizations. You'll work directly with enterprise executives, influence product strategy, and help build one of the most important categories emerging at the intersection of AI, research, and consulting. If you're excited about transforming an industry—not just selling software, we'd love to meet you. #J-18808-Ljbffr
