Scale AI
The shift from traditional software to AI is one of the most important transitions of our time, and the frontier AI labs driving it depend on Scale to do it. As an Engagement Management Lead on Scale's Generative AI team, you'll operate at the center of our most strategic frontier-lab relationships — serving as a trusted, operationally grounded thought partner to the world's leading AI research teams. You will also directly oversee account management and growth strategy for the customers to which you’re assigned.
You'll build deep relationships with GenAI researchers and other key customer contacts, navigate challenging conversations with confidence rooted in operational knowledge, and earn new work by driving exceptional customer success. The strongest EM Leads are naturally empathetic and excel at building long-term relationships through diligent problem solving and thoughtful, strategic discussion.
You won't run data pipelines yourself — you own the customer relationship end to end, translate research needs into complex human-data programs, partner closely with the operations, engineering, and ML teams who execute them, and think strategically about how to sustainably grow Scale’s GenAI business. The ideal candidate pairs a technical foundation with proven judgment in high-stakes, client-facing settings.
Compensation packages at Scale for eligible roles include base salary, equity, and benefits. The range displayed on each job posting reflects the minimum and maximum target for new hire salaries for the position and may be inclusive of several career levels at Scale; it will be determined during the interview process based on work location and additional factors, including job-related skills, experience, qualifications, interview performance, and relevant education or training. Scale employees in eligible roles are also granted equity based compensation, subject to Board of Director approval. Your recruiter can share more about the specific salary range for your preferred location during the hiring process, and confirm whether the hired role will be eligible for equity grant. You'll also receive benefits including, but not limited to: comprehensive health, dental and vision coverage, retirement benefits, a learning and development stipend, and generous PTO. Additionally, this role may be eligible for additional benefits such as a commuter stipend.
PLEASE NOTE: Our policy requires a 90-day waiting period before reconsidering candidates for the same role. This allows us to ensure a fair and thorough evaluation of all applicants.
