The AI Solution Manager/ Senior AI Solution Manager - State and Local role is a unique blend of applied AI innovation, hands-on solution delivery, and public service impact. In this role, you'll work directly with state and local governments to tackle pressing community challenges, craft responsible AI solutions, and lead teams to bring them to life.

You are passionate about making an impact for local communities. Whether it's helping a city respond faster to resident needs or making it easier for counties to process critical services, you'll be part of a mission that matters.

You'll lead the full journey: from understanding a public agency's goals and designing the right approach, to adapting AI tools that are responsible, practical, and built for public-sector realities.

You'll guide teams of engineers, data scientists, and policy experts to deliver outcomes-not just technology. You'll shape solutions that help city planners work smarter, police departments work safer, and local governments better serve their people.

This role is ideal if you want to be part of the next generation of AI innovation-and you care deeply about how it improves daily life for real people. You are driven by a belief that technology should serve the public good.

Our AI Solution Managers work on impactful, highly visible AI solution pilots, for example:

• Use GenAI to support faster, fairer property appraisals-reducing backlogs and taxpayer frustration


• Help local law enforcement find critical case details instantly using AI-powered search


• Build assistants to help public workers answer complex policy questions or respond to resident inquiries faster


• Analyze city zoning codes with AI to speed up affordable housing approvals

Responsibilities:

• Shape the AI roadmap for state and local agencies by identifying, validating, and tailoring AI-driven solutions that address mission-critical business challenges and unlock new opportunities


• Lead, brainstorm, and problem-solve together with multi-disciplinary AI teams (data scientists, engineers, architects, and industry experts) to deliver cutting-edge AI applications with measurable impact


• Engage customer executives as champions to drive AI adoption and ensure successful integration into their organizations


• Partner with the Sales team to drive adoption and expansion, ensuring AI solutions transition from successful pilots to enterprise-wide implementations


• Partner with the Product team to ensure that solutions transition from high-value pilots to standardized, repeatable enterprise offerings

This is a high-visibility role where your work directly shapes how government uses AI to serve its people. You'll travel across the U.S., work with inspiring civic leaders, and help bring the future of public service to life.

Qualifications:

• Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Economics, Statistics, or Computer Science; MS/MBA preferred


• Proven track record with 4+ years of experience in business strategy, consulting, product management, or AI/ML solutions, shaping AI commercialization and enterprise transformation


• Proven interest in AI & Generative AI, demonstrated through formal education, self-study, or hands-on experience


• Knowledge and experience of working with at least one Government agency (State, Federal or Local agency)


• Experience with a property assessor's office or with a law enforcement agency will be highly preferred


• Exceptional problem-solving, communication, and executive presentation skills, with experience influencing executive-level stakeholders


• Ability to lead and inspire multi-disciplinary teams in a fast-paced, high-impact environment

C3 AI provides excellent benefits, a competitive compensation package and generous equity plan.
