About the Job

Requirements

  • 5 to 8 years of experience (post-bachelor's or advanced degree) in product strategy, technology strategy, corporate strategy, management consulting, or technical product management at a major cloud or enterprise software company.
  • Strong structural understanding of enterprise artificial intelligence and machine-learning architectures, agentic systems, and platform integration patterns.
  • Command of enterprise systems of record, data platforms, and software-as-a-service infrastructure, including an understanding of how artificial intelligence layers affect the software business model.
  • A solid foundation in business model design, including the trade-offs between open-source, proprietary, platform-native, and application-programming-interface-led go-to-market models.
  • Experience participating in build-buy-partner assessments, go-to-market strategies, or market studies for mergers and acquisitions.
  • Strong quantitative and qualitative problem-solving skills to structure complex issues and test strategic hypotheses.

Responsibilities

  • Conduct market studies, whitespace analyses, and competitive assessments to support multi-year positioning frameworks across Salesforce's enterprise artificial intelligence and platform portfolio.
  • Evaluate the strategic transition of internal technical capabilities, including trust infrastructure, workflow automation, agentic artificial intelligence, and data platforms, into standalone product lines or platform-integrated offerings.
  • Conduct structured assessments for internal development, acquisition, or partnership decisions, analyzing platform integration timelines against independent go-to-market strategies.
  • Track fundamental shifts, including agentic coding, artificial-intelligence-native application architectures, supply-chain automation, and open-source ecosystems, and translate them into clear, data-backed investment theses.
  • Collaborate with strategy and product management leaders to identify portfolio vulnerabilities and market opportunities beyond traditional competitive analysis.
  • Integrate technical research, engineering capabilities, strategic market intelligence, and mergers-and-acquisitions trends into well-supported strategic perspectives.
  • Perform market sizing, economic modeling, and competitive analyses to justify capital allocation and strategic redirections.
  • Work with regional leadership to adapt platform strategies to international markets, accounting for local regulatory frameworks and the competitive landscape.
  • Analyze monetization structures, including open source, platform integration, standalone software as a service, and application-programming-interface-first models, balancing long-term revenue potential, developer adoption, and defensibility.
  • Track venture capital activity, developer ecosystem shifts, and emerging research to identify new technology paradigms before they become consensus.
  • Write clear, well-structured strategic memos and presentations for chief strategy officers, product vice presidents, and executive leaders.

Desired Qualifications

  • A master's-level degree, such as a Master of Business Administration, Master of Science, or equivalent, in a business or technical field.
  • Experience in technical strategy, corporate innovation, or technology strategy consulting.
  • Knowledge of developer platform ecosystems, artificial-intelligence-assisted software development, and modern developer tools.
  • Hands-on experience or deep knowledge in enterprise supply-chain automation, process agentification, or vertical artificial-intelligence applications.
  • Experience in venture capital, corporate development, or technology investment analysis.
  • An entrepreneurial, builder mindset focused on evaluating new markets, new business models, and emerging paradigms rather than optimizing existing features.
