That work begins with Lily™, the world's first AI Forward Deployed Engineer, which learns how a business works, builds the software it needs, and goes live in days. It does not leave when the work ships; it stays and keeps the software working as the business changes. Lily runs wherever the work happens, in the cloud, on-premise, or at the edge, through InstaLILY's Small Data Center, built with NVIDIA technology. Founded in 2023 by Amit Shah and Sumantro Das, InstaLILY has raised nearly $100 million from Energize Capital, Insight Partners, and Home Depot Ventures. Headquartered in New York, with offices in San Francisco, London, and Toronto, InstaLILY serves leading companies across construction, industrial distribution, logistics, healthcare, and other operationally intensive industries. Learn more at https://instalily.ai/.\nThe Traction\nRevenue grew 5x over the past year, and Lily has driven over $200M in new annual sales for a single customer. We serve some of the largest operators in our industries, including SRS Distribution (part of The Home Depot family), United Rentals, and Henry Schein, and we work closely with the Google DeepMind and NVIDIA ecosystems.\nHow We Work\nWe work in small teams with real ownership: clear problems, direct access to the customers whose work you're changing, and room to ship. Your code runs in live production systems inside billion-dollar operations, so you see your impact directly. People who do well here want that proximity to the work. We're growing fast, and the people who join now shape what this company becomes. Everything runs on three principles: Customers, Culture, and Code.\nThe Role\nYou own every room InstaLILY puts people in.\nExecutive programs come first: summits, customer working sessions, and private dinners with senior operators. That is where our deals actually move, and it is where most of your attention should go. Industry trade shows in distribution and construction come next, then the partner and ecosystem circuit with NVIDIA, Google, and Microsoft, then the internal events that keep a fast-growing team across four offices feeling like one company.\nThe job is not logistics support. It is deciding what an event is for, what has to be true for it to work, and then making that happen. Who is in the room matters more than the room. A dinner for twelve operators that produces four qualified conversations beats a booth that collects three hundred badges, and you should be the person in the building who argues that case with evidence.\nYou'll own the calendar, the budget, and the run-of-show. You'll brief the founders before they walk on stage. You'll chase the follow-up until it shows up in pipeline, because an event nobody follows up on did not happen.\nYou will not be doing all of it alone. Events are already running day to day, and you'll set the direction and the standard for that work while still being on site yourself.\nYou'll work with sales leadership and the founders on what these rooms are for.\nWhat You'll Do\nRoughly in priority order.\nExecutive programs. Design and run the summits, working sessions, and private dinners that put senior operators in a room with us. Set the objective, build the format around it, and own who gets invited.\nOwn the calendar. Build the annual plan across hosted events, trade shows, partner events, and internal gatherings. Decide what we do, what we skip, and what we kill after it underperforms.\nTrade shows and conferences. Own our presence in distribution, construction, logistics, and healthcare: booth, speaking slots, side events, and the meetings booked around them.\nPartner and ecosystem events. Work the NVIDIA, Google, and Microsoft circuit, and build the joint events that come out of those relationships.\nRun the show. Own the run-of-show and be the person making calls on site when the AV fails, a speaker cancels, or forty more people arrive than registered.\nBudget. Own it end to end. Negotiate with venues and vendors, track spend, and be able to defend cost per qualified conversation.\nFollow-up and reporting. Build the pre-event outreach and the post-event sequence, get the data into HubSpot cleanly, and report what each event actually produced.\nDirect the work. Set priorities and quality standards for the events work running day to day, and make it better.\nExecutive prep and internal events. Brief founders on who's in the room and what to say. Run offsites and all-hands across New York, San Francisco, London, and Toronto.\nWhat You'll Need\n6+ years running B2B events, with real weight on hosted executive programs rather than only trade show logistics.\nYou've owned a program, not just events. You've held an annual calendar and a budget, made the call to kill something, and defended it.\nExperience directing someone else's work. Formally or not. You can set a standard and hold it without doing the task yourself.\nCommercial judgment. You think in meetings created and pipeline influenced, not attendance and swag.\nVendor and budget command. You negotiate hard, track every line, and don't get surprised by an invoice.\nUnflappable on site. Something always breaks. You fix it without escalating and without visible panic.\nComfort with executives. You can tell a founder their talk is running long, and direct a room of senior operators without being pushy about it.\nSharp written communication. Invitations, agendas, and follow-ups that people actually read.\nAI-native. You use frontier AI tools to run more events than a team this size should be able to run.\nTravel. Expect roughly 25% travel, concentrated in event season.\nIn-person availability. 5 days/week in our New York office.\nWhat You'll Get\nReal traction. The product works, customers are live, and we've already driven over $200M in incremental revenue for customers. Our events have something real to say.\nOwnership. You own the function: the strategy, the budget, and the standard.\nAccess. Rooms full of senior operators at some of the largest companies in construction, distribution, logistics, and healthcare, plus the Google and NVIDIA ecosystems.\nDirect access. You'll work with the founders and sales leadership on what these events are for.\nStage. Early enough to shape how InstaLILY shows up in the market.\nCompensation and Benefits\nSalary Range: $110,000 - $135,000, commensurate with experience\nEquity: Generous stock options awards and refreshers for top performers.\nBenefits: Medical, Dental, Vision, 401K, Well-being stipend, In-office lunch reimbursement, PTO and 10 US Federal Holidays, and more!\nQuality Over Quantity\nTo ensure a focused, high-quality hiring experience, we kindly ask candidates to limit their applications to 3 open requisitions at any given time.
