Forward Deployed AI Accelerator, Marketing

Stripe Stripe · Fintech · United States · 2315 Marketing - Marketing Operations

This role involves embedding AI expertise within marketing teams to transform workflows by building custom AI tools, agents, and automations. The goal is to make AI the default mode of operation for marketers, coaching them through adoption and enabling self-sufficiency, with a focus on scaling successful transformations across the organization.

What you'd actually do

  1. Identify and document the highest-leverage workflow transformations within your group's day-to-day work by deeply understanding their processes and outputs
  2. Build custom tools, agents, automations, and skills tailored to each marketer's specific responsibilities
  3. Coach and partner with each marketer through a progressive journey: from awareness, to first win, to regular AI integration, to full workflow transformation, to self-sufficiency
  4. Teach marketers to build and iterate on their own tools over time, creating independence
  5. Recognize patterns across your cohort and systematically scale what works — a tool built for one marketer should become reusable for their peers

  • Track record of coaching, teaching, or enabling others — formally or informally — with evidence that people you've helped actually changed how they work
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to explain technical concepts to non-technical audiences and adapt your style to different learners
  • Comfort working across multiple workstreams and relationships simultaneously (you'll be supporting ~20 marketers at varying stages of their AI journey)

  • Proficiency with AI development tools and platforms (e.g., Claude, Claude Code, Codex, custom agent frameworks, API integrations, workflow automation tools)

  • Familiarity with marketing technology stacks (e.g., Marketo, Salesforce, analytics platforms, content management tools)
  • Experience building and scaling internal tools, templates, or playbooks that were adopted beyond your immediate team
  • Background in consulting, solutions engineering, technical account management, or other customer-facing technical roles
