Socket.dev; United States; Remote; USD 120,000 - 180,000; Full time

Job summary

Serve Robotics is seeking a Senior Corporate Strategist to drive enterprise partnerships and strategic initiatives. You will turn diverse inputs into defensible theses, build rigorous models, and create compelling pitches for leadership.

The role requires influencing senior stakeholders, managing multiple workstreams, and producing board-ready materials, all while navigating a remote US/Canada landscape with occasional travel.

Qualifications

• 3 to 8 years of experience in management consulting, corporate strategy, or similar.
• Strong research instincts, with demonstrated ability to move from no knowledge of a company to a defensible thesis within roughly a week.
• Modeling ability in Excel that goes beyond maintaining or formatting someone else's model, including building from scratch and defending every assumption.
• Slide craft sufficient to build a deck that a C-suite audience can follow without narration.
• Clear writing, with the ability to construct and defend an argument in prose.
• Judgment to manage competing priorities across two senior stakeholders and to escalate early when they collide.
• Independent thinker with comfort in ambiguity and solving big open-ended questions.

Responsibilities

• Run deep-dive research on target enterprises and markets, covering business model, cost structure, competitive pressures, existing partnerships, technology roadmap, procurement dynamics, and stated strategy.
• Build market sizing, pricing, cost-to-serve, unit economics, and scenario models from scratch.
• Build exceptional strategy decks end to end: frame the argument, develop the storyline, select the evidence, and create the charts and slides that make a complex opportunity persuasive to a senior audience.
• Own discrete workstreams on internal strategic questions, including market entry and city sequencing, build-versus-buy-versus-partner analysis, competitive positioning, and capital allocation tradeoffs.
• Synthesize inputs such as public filings, earnings calls, industry reports, expert calls, and internal data into a clear point of view with a recommendation.
• Build materials for board, investor, and executive audiences that a senior reader can follow without narration.
• Track autonomous delivery, last-mile logistics, robotics, and adjacent mobility landscape, and flag what matters.
• Evaluate scale, feasibility, and resource requirements of new bets, including potential revenue or strategic value, funding, and milestones.
