At Yalo, we believe the future of sales is personalized, omnichannel, intelligent, and conversational. Join us as we empower businesses to build stronger relationships and achieve remarkable results worldwide!   Why this role exists? 🧠 Strategic partnerships at Yalo have moved past the coordination phase. The next phase requires someone who carries — not orchestrates. Someone who can sit across the table from a Meta, Google, or Salesforce counterpart and hold the full conversation: technical, commercial, contractual, strategic. Without escalation.

This is the role that bends Yalo's long-term curve.   Your Mission Build Yalo's strategic partnerships function into a self-sufficient, end-to-end value-creation engine — anchored by co-creating new products with strategic partners that generate Yalo's first dollar of partner-sourced ARR.

What will own? 1. End-to-end ownership of strategic partnerships Top 15 strategic accounts: full ownership of commercial, technical, contractual, and relational front. Direct peer-level relationships with executives at Meta, Google, Salesforce, AWS, McKinsey, and others in Yalo's ecosystem. Execute on the Marketplace strategies 2. Self-sufficient depth  Product depth at the architecture level  Pricing fluency  Agent architecture understanding — firsthand. You've built or operated with conversational AI agents. You can speak to limits and what's becoming possible. Competitive depth — clear, unprompted POV on competitive landscape. Where we're stronger, where we're weaker, why. Selling mechanics — how deals actually move, what objections come up, what closes ...
