Train colleagues across XFNs on glasses onboarding tactics to ensure a successful seeding experience for partners
Develop and maintain external partner frameworks that support seeding logistics and tracking across creators, athletes, public figures, and institutional partners

Experience building and scaling programs into repeatable, measurable operations
Proven ability to influence and execute with cross-functional stakeholders in ambiguous, highly matrixed environments
Experience translating complex topics into clear, executive-ready narratives for technical and non-technical stakeholders
Bachelor's degree (or equivalent practical experience)

Preferred Qualifications

Demonstrated ongoing AI skill development (e.g., prompt/context engineering, agent orchestration) and staying current with emerging AI technologies
Experience in partnerships, media, sports, entertainment, or creator ecosystems
Demonstrated ability to improve operating cadence and execution at scale across multiple markets or regions
Experience adhering to and implementing responsible, ethical AI practices (e.g., risk assessment, bias mitigation, quality and accuracy reviews)
Demonstrated ability to integrate AI tools to optimize/redesign workflows and drive measurable impact (e.g., efficiency gains, quality improvements)
Track record of operationalizing hardware or product seeding programs with external partners
Experience leveraging AI tools to streamline workflows and improve program effectiveness
