About Obin

Obin is the agentic workforce for regulated finance. We build AI agents that understand how each institution operates - its workflows, decision-making logic, edge cases, and regulatory requirements. We partner with leading financial institutions to reimagine critical workflows across insurance, private credit, and commercial lending. Obin was founded by Apoorv Saxena (former Global Head of AI at JPMorgan Chase, Managing Director at Silver Lake, and Head of Product for Cloud AI at Google) and Lak Lakshmanan (former Data & AI operating executive at Silver Lake and Head of Data Analytics & AI at Google). Our advisors include AI pioneers Fei-Fei Li and Lukasz Kaiser. Today, Obin's solutions are in production at institutions representing more than $1 trillion in assets. We've been profitable since seed and are closing our Series A.

About the Role

We're looking for an AI Strategist to help our enterprise customers reimagine how their businesses operate with AI. You'll work directly with business executives to understand their most important challenges, identify high-impact AI opportunities, and translate ambitious ideas into solutions that deliver measurable business value. You'll own opportunity discovery and solution scoping through development, deployment, and measurement of business outcomes. Working closely with Obin's commercial, product and engineering teams, you'll ensure that solutions are grounded in customers' business priorities and successfully brought into production. This is a highly visible, client-facing role with significant ownership and the opportunity to shape how leading enterprises adopt and scale AI.

What You'll Do

Identify and Shape High-Impact AI Opportunities

• Work with customers to identify, evaluate, and prioritize AI use cases based on business impact, technical feasibility, and strategic importance.
• Translate complex business challenges into clearly defined AI opportunities, solution concepts, and actionable roadmaps.
• Develop compelling business cases, value propositions, and success metrics to demonstrate the potential ROI of AI initiatives.
• Help customers think beyond incremental efficiency improvements to reimagine workflows and operating models enabled by agentic AI.

Drive AI Solutions from Strategy to Production

• Partner closely with Obin's product, engineering, and Technical Program Management team to translate business requirements into solution designs and implementation plans.
• Navigate complex enterprise environments, proactively identifying risks, resolving ambiguity, and removing obstacles to execution.
• Define, track, and measure business outcomes, ensuring that deployed solutions deliver against customers' objectives and success metrics.

Shape Long-Term AI Transformation

• Help customers develop longer-term AI strategies and roadmaps, identifying opportunities to expand successful solutions across teams, workflows, and business units.
• Serve as a strategic thought partner to customers as they navigate the organizational, operational, and technological implications of AI adoption.

Be a Trusted Strategic Advisor to Enterprise Executives

• Build trusted relationships with business executives and senior stakeholders, serving as a strategic partner on their AI transformation journey.
• Develop a deep understanding of customers' business models, operating environments, strategic priorities, and challenges to identify where AI can drive meaningful change.
• Facilitate executive discussions and strategic workshops to shape AI transformation priorities, build alignment, and drive decision‑making.

What You'll Bring

• 7+ years of professional experience in management or tech consulting, corporate strategy, enterprise transformation, or strategic roles at leading technology companies.
• Extensive executive‑facing experience, including working senior business leaders to shape strategy, influence decisions, and drive complex initiatives forward.
• Exceptional strategic and analytical problem‑solving skills, with the ability to structure ambiguous problems, synthesize complex information, and translate insights into clear recommendations and actionable plans.
• Experience advising or working within financial services, insurance, asset management, or other complex, highly regulated industries.
• Outstanding communication and executive presence, with the ability to engage, influence, and build credibility with both technical and non‑technical stakeholders.
• Strong business acumen, including experience evaluating business opportunities, developing business cases, assessing ROI, and connecting technology investments to measurable business outcomes.
• Demonstrated ownership and execution, with a track record of leading complex, cross‑functional initiatives from strategy through implementation.
• Comfort operating in ambiguity, with the adaptability, initiative, and resourcefulness to thrive in a fast‑moving startup environment.

Even Better If You Have

• Hands‑on experience developing AI transformation strategies or deploying generative AI and agentic solutions within large enterprises.
• An MBA or advanced degree in a relevant discipline.
