Over the next few years, AI is going to redefine how people all over the world interact with businesses every day. Come build that future at Cresta. About the Role: We're hiring our first dedicated Engagement Manager to own how Cresta scopes, prices, and sells professional services — across both our core platform and our fast-growing AI Agent product. You'll sit inside Professional Services and turn an ad-hoc, bottlenecked process into a repeatable, revenue-generating motion. This is a founding services-selling role with room to build. Key Responsibilities: - Own the SOW process end-to-end: scope engagements, draft SOWs, price services, and sell them to enterprise customers. - Scope AI Agent deployments (conversational design, integration, outcome configuration) as well as core-platform services. - Drive services attach and bookings on new and expansion deals. - Partner with Sales, Deal Desk, and Product to move deals fast without sacrificing delivery margin. - Build the repeatable process, templates, and pricing logic that let this function scale. Qualifications: - 4–10 yrs in professional services, with 2+ yrs scoping and selling services engagements (PS Sales / Engagement Manager / Services Sales). - Track record of driving services attach and bookings — not just processing paperwork. - Technical fluency to scope complex deployments; conversational AI / contact-center AI experience strongly preferred. - Comfortable pricing and defending services value directly with enterprise customers. - Deal desk or commercial-contracting exposure a plus. Perks & Benefits: We offer a comprehensive and people-first benefits package to support you at work and in life: - Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage with plans to fit you and your family - Paid parental leave for all new parents welcoming a new child - Remote work setup budget to help you create a productive home office - Monthly wellness and communication stipend to keep you connected and balanced - 20 days of vacation time to promote a healthy work-life blend Compensation at Cresta: Cresta’s approach to compensation is simple: recognize impact, reward excellence, and invest in our people. We offer competitive, location-based pay that reflects the market and what each individual brings to the table. Compensation for this position includes a Base salary + Variable + Equity. Actual base salaries will be based on candidate-specific factors, including experience, skillset, and location, and local minimum pay requirements as applicable. Your recruiter can provide further details. In addition, total compensation includes a comprehensive benefits package for you and your family. Our use of AI in recruiting: We may use AI tools in our recruiting process, which require human review and oversight.

Recording & AI transcription: We do not authorize candidates to record or use AI transcription of any interview by phone, notetaker app, AI glasses, or other device.

Any outreach claiming to be from Cresta via other sources should be ignored. ## About Cresta ## Company Overview - **One-liner**: Cresta is the generative AI platform for customer experience, unifying human and AI agents to drive measurable business outcomes for the world's largest enterprises. - **Entity Type**: Private (Series D, $125M raised in 2024) - **Headquarters**: Sunnyvale, California, USA (with additional offices in San Francisco, New York, Toronto, London, Berlin, Bucharest, Cluj-Napoca, Tokyo, Taipei, Melbourne) - **Founded**: 2017 - **Founders**: Zayd Enam, Sebastian Thrun, Tim Shi ## Core Business - **Primary industry**: Generative AI for Customer Experience (CX) / Contact Center AI - **Target customers**: Enterprise (Fortune 500), B2B; verticals include customer service, sales, collections - **Mission or purpose statement**: "Turn every conversation into a competitive advantage" by combining the best of human intelligence and AI. ## Products & Services - **Cresta AI Agent**: Autonomous voice and digital agent that resolves customer conversations end-to-end (SaaS/AI agent). - **Cresta Agent Assist**: Real-time AI guidance, suggestions, and knowledge for human agents during live conversations (SaaS). - **Cresta Conversation Intelligence**: AI that analyzes 100% of conversations to surface insights, behaviors, and revenue opportunities (SaaS). - **Cresta Knowledge Agent**: Proactive, real-time answers from enterprise knowledge bases delivered to agents (SaaS). - **Cresta Quality Management**: Automated QA across 100% of contact center conversations (SaaS). ## Market Standing - **Valuation/Market Cap**: Not publicly disclosed - **Key Metric**: Total funding raised $270M+ (as of 2026) - **Notable Investors**: Sequoia, Greylock, a16z, Tiger Global, World Innovation Lab (WiL) - **Growth Signals**: - 600+ employees across 10+ global hubs - Expanded into APAC and EMEA markets in 2025 - Partnerships with TELUS Digital (June 2026) and New York Mets (June 2026) - Launched Conductor (AI agent development tool) in June 2026 - Reported 20% higher revenue and 30pt NPS improvement for customers ## Competitive Advantages - **Real-time transformer-based models** deployed at scale since 2018 (Intuit was first customer) - **Patented conversational AI technology** (multiple patents secured) - **Unified platform** that combines AI agents, human agent assist, and conversation intelligence - **Human-centric AI approach** differentiating from pure automation players - **Fortune 500 trust** and deep enterprise integrations ## Strategic Focus - **Accelerate adoption of human-centric agentic AI** across global enterprises - **Expand globally** with new hubs in APAC and EMEA - **Continue product innovation** (e.g., Conductor for AI agent development, voice AI enhancements) - **Deepen partnerships** with system integrators and telcos ## Why Work Here - **Mission-driven culture**: "Mission is the boss" – decisions align with company goals, not hierarchy - **Flexible work**: Hybrid model with many fully remote roles; offices in major cities worldwide - **Global team**: 10+ hubs across North America, Europe, Asia, and Australia - **Perks & benefits**: Multiple medical/dental/vision plans, inclusive parental leave, generous time-off policy, workspace support, learning opportunities (hackathons, guest speakers) - **Growth mindset**: Autonomy, high-impact roles, and continuous learning encouraged - **Engineering culture**: Strong emphasis on AI/ML, real-time systems, and building at scale ## Sources 1.
