About the Role
Safari AI is a first-of-its-kind computer vision AI platform that enables its enterprise clients to virtually share their IP video camera feed in order to measure the most important physical activity in their operations in real-time. The company is looking to double down on Founder/CEO-led growth and is now recruiting for a Chief of Staff to work side-by-side with the Founder & CEO in their midtown Manhattan office. You will partner with him and others to iterate and codify the Go to Market ("GTM") strategy, process, and overall GTM motion, resulting in higher conversion rates, shorter sales cycles, and higher impact per client. Ultimately, documenting and building out the GTM playbook will enable future team members to onboard faster and be more productive. After about 6 months, the role will include other responsibilities and somewhere between 12-18 months, this person will be asked which group at the company they would want to join or potentially lead, e.g. Sales, Operations, Technical Deployment, Client Success, Marketing, etc.

Why bet on Computer Vision and Safari AI?
1. Huge industry hiding in plain sight: leveraging already-installed cameras to automate and real-time action on operational data
2. Large chasm between customer knowledge and market availability, i.e. customers don't know what is available in the market...yet.
3. No clear industry leader in computer vision; everyone is small and unbranded (i.e. no Amazon or Google in the room to compete with)
4. Very modular, allowing Safari AI and its customers to invent whole new use cases on a regular basis
5. Safari AI has developed the tech and data pipelines over three years and invested several million dollars and is now ready to scale
6. Safari AI is already the market leader in enterprise applications CV by working with industry leaders with billions in revenue
