Founded in 2020 by George Sivulka and backed by Peter Thiel and Andreessen Horowitz, Hebbia powers investment decisions for [BlackRock](https://www.blackrock.com/us/individual/about-us/about-blackrock?cid=ppc:blk_us:corpaffairs_us_br_reputationmediamanagement_na_exact_ol:google:brand_nonprod:ol&gclsrc=aw.ds&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=21584717446&gbraid=0AAAAACc6WDFbRb5bgB6zxVFLE_7yIy25I&gclid=CjwKCAiA9aPKBhBhEiwAyz82J2uDlcIPVsy0fhSZMS_rp_OsGerYzYFPFfLo4TlN8K4eCHWzPfvysRoC7oQQAvD_BwE), [KKR](https://www.kkr.com/), [Carlyle](https://www.carlyle.com/), [Centerview](https://www.centerviewpartners.com/), and 40% of the world’s largest asset managers. Our flagship product, Matrix, delivers industry-leading accuracy, speed, and transparency in AI-driven analysis. It is trusted to help manage over $30 trillion in assets globally. We deliver the intelligence that gives finance professionals a definitive edge. Our AI uncovers signals no human could see, surfaces hidden opportunities, and accelerates decisions with unmatched speed and conviction. We do not just streamline workflows. We transform how capital is deployed, how risk is managed, and how value is created across markets. Hebbia is not a tool. Hebbia is the competitive advantage that drives performance, alpha, and market leadership. ## About the AI Strategy Team Our AI Strategists are deep domain experts and problem-solvers who bridge product, commercial strategy, and customer impact. They understand deeply the manual drain of our users’ workflows and the myriad ways Hebbia provides value, and are focused on embedding and expanding Hebbia use cases within customer environments to maximize ROI and transform how work gets done. As we continue to scale in hypergrowth, our AI Strategists sit at the intersection of GTM, product, and post-sales - helping shape commercial strategy and expanding our footprint across the global financial industry landscape. The team owns deployment and early adoption, leads strategic growth initiatives post-sale, and partners cross-functionally to inform product roadmap, sales strategy, and executive account management. ## About the Role This is not a typical post-sales role: you’ll drive the strategic deployment and measurable value creation of Hebbia’s platform across top global financial institutions, shaping how AI transforms the enterprise. Our AI Strategists bring curiosity, critical thinking, commercial edge, and executive polish - they  move seamlessly between strategic conversations and hands-on execution in a fast-moving environment.
