Our strategists sit with C-suite leaders, find where AI adds the most value, and drive it into production.\nWe were founded in New York City in 2025. We are currently 70 people and will reach 140 by the end of the year. We build for Fortune 500 companies across media, healthcare, retail, finance, and sports.\nAnthropic, OpenAI, and Cursor build the frontier. As their trusted implementation partner, we turn technology into reliable systems businesses use every day.\nThe role\nYou’ll own client workstreams end to end: find where AI adds real value, define what gets built, drive adoption, and keep proving out the business results. You’ll report to an Engagement Manager and will partner with a Forward Deployed Engineer who owns architecture and delivery.\nWe look for strategists who:\nHave changed how a team works, and can explain what they changed, why, and what happened.\n\nTurn unclear business problems into requirements, priorities, and a plan an engineer can act on.\n\nCan explain technical tradeoffs to a CEO\n\nUse AI tools daily to solve problems\n\nYou will learn to run diagnostics that surface real value drivers, scope engagements an engineer can build against, and manage transformation rollouts and adoption.\nThe strategists we put in front of clients are the product, so hiring is the most important decision we make each week. Our strategists have worked at firms like McKinsey, Bain, Deloitte, EY, PWC, Accenture, and have founded AI consultancies of their own.\nRecent work\nFour-week diagnostic across claims, underwriting, and customer operations for a national insurer. We identified the ten highest-return AI opportunities, presented a roadmap, and delivered the first two.\n\nTwo-week sprint to define an agent’s requirements for a healthcare system. We Prototyped it with engineering and managed its rollout across three hospitals.\n\nAI training program built across a private equity firm’s portfolio. We developed the playbook, led training, and prepared internal champions to carry the work forward after the engagement ended.\n\nHow we pay\nBase $130K-$180K\nQuarterly bonus $5K-$15K\nHow we work\nTenex is intense by design. The pace is fast, and the standards are high. People share what they learn, challenge each other, and step in to help, so the bar is high and so is the support.\nThis is probably not the right place if you want a narrow scope, a predictable pace, or distance from customers. It is built for strategists who want responsibility, hard problems, and a steep learning curve. We work from our New York City office five days a week and travel to client sites about once a month\nOur Vision\nWe’re bootstrapped and profitable, and we reinvest what we earn into tools, research, and products of our own. Over time, that’s how we build a modern-day Bell Labs: a place where solving today’s problems gives us the means to tackle bigger ones.\nBenefits\nMedical insurance with PPO and HSA options, plus dental and vision\n\nHSA, Healthcare FSA, and commuter benefits\n\n100% employer-paid life and AD&D insurance\n\n100% employer-paid long-term disability insurance\n\nResponsible PTO: take what you need\n\nWorking at Tenex\nWe work from our New York City office five days a week. Expect to travel to client sites approximately once a month.","description_format":"text","description_chars":3309,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["Equity","Health insurance"],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Artificial Intelligence","Media & Entertainment"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-09-07T19:47:00Z"},{"event":"reopen","at":"2026-10-12T06:48:43Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":6,"band":"cold","label":"Long shot","p_open":1,"p_active":0.213,"p_room":0.28,"age_days":132,"expected_fill_days":29,"reasons":["conf:0","stale_co","ghost","win:tail","crowd:"],"computed_at":"2026-11-04T06:34:25Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/tenex-senior-ai-strategist-process","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/tenex-senior-ai-strategist-process.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-04T08:24:35Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":13134,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-05T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":2776775},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=2776775"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Ftenex-senior-ai-strategist-process"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Ftenex-senior-ai-strategist-process"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Ftenex-senior-ai-strategist-process"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/tenex-senior-ai-strategist-process\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Ftenex-senior-ai-strategist-process"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":516416}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"tenex.co","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":516416},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
