Forward Deployed Strategist (NYC)
Confirmed on the employer's own hiring board on Oct 20, 2026. First seen by Alion on Oct 13, 2026.
Description
Grab your cape, become a SuperHyro!
Hyro, the leader in Responsible AI Agents for Healthcare, enables health systems to safely automate workflows and conversations across their most valuable platforms, services, and channels - including call centers, websites, SMS, mobile apps, and more. Hyro's clients, which include Intermountain Health, Baptist Health, and Hackensack Meridian Health, benefit from AI agents that are fully HIPAA-compliant, fast to deploy, easy to maintain, and simple to scale - generating better conversations, successful patient outcomes, and revenue-driving insights.
What are we looking for?
Most AI deployments stall after go-live. Your job is to make sure ours don't. Health systems are under pressure to do more with less, and Hyro's responsible AI Agents are already handling millions of patient conversations. But launching an AI Agent is only the beginning. The real value comes from what happens next: expanding into new workflows, earning trust across departments, and proving measurable impact to leadership.
That's where you come in. As one of Hyro's first Forward Deployed Strategists, you'll embed with our most strategic health-system customers and own their adoption journey from the core deployment to a full, measurable AI program. You'll be part strategist, part technologist, and part change agent, and you'll help write the playbook for a function that doesn't exist anywhere else at Hyro yet.
Responsibilities
- Partner strategically. Be the dedicated, embedded expert for a portfolio of strategic health-system accounts and the person their leadership calls first
- Drive adoption. Own each client's roadmap from the core package into advanced capabilities, with demos and working sessions that rally everyone from frontline staff to the C-suite
- Translate between worlds. Turn clinical and operational needs into deployment plans, and bring the customer's voice to Engineering, Product, and Sales
- Get ahead of risk. Spot stalling adoption or at-risk signals early and act before they become problems
Requirements
- 5+ years in a customer-facing role such as product management, solutions engineering or pre-sales, or technical consulting, ideally serving US healthcare or health-system customers
- A solid grasp of enterprise AI systems, APIs, cloud technologies, or deployment architectures. You don't need to write production code, but you can hold your own with engineers and explain it to executives
- A product mindset: you can articulate why a specific capability matters to a specific user in a specific workflow
- A track record of building trust fast and moving stakeholders from "interesting" to "let's do it."
- Willingness to travel to client sites regularly (approximately 25%)
Advantages:
- Experience at a healthtech company or with health-system customers
- Hands-on experience with ML, AI, or NLU products
