Turing’s mission is to accelerate superintelligence to drive real economic progress. Headquartered in San Francisco, Turing works with frontier AI labs to generate high-quality datasets, reinforcement learning environments, and frontier research benchmarks that improve model capabilities in software engineering, enterprise knowledge work, and advanced STEM reasoning. In software engineering, Turing is the largest and longest-running data provider in the category. Turing also works with Fortune 500 enterprises across financial services, life sciences, healthcare, retail, automotive, and CPG to build and deploy end-to-end agentic AI systems inside mission-critical workflows. By operating on both sides, Turing closes the loop between frontier research and enterprise deployment, turning real-world deployment signals into better data, evaluations, and more capable models.

Enterprise AI is a distinct business unit within Turing focused on deploying AI systems that create measurable value for enterprise customers.
As the Enterprise AI Account Director for a consumer packaged goods company, you will own an established custom engineering relationship both commercially and operationally. You will expand the account by identifying operations, supply chain, and commercial workflows where AI can create measurable value, selling those deployments, and overseeing delivery through a senior Forward-Deployed Engineer or delivery lead.
This is a high-ownership role for someone who combines commercial instinct, enterprise credibility, and delivery leadership.
As the Strategic Account Director You WillExpand the Client RelationshipBuild relationships across multiple buying centers and identify new sponsors and decision-makers beyond the current buyer.
Identify AI Deployment OpportunitiesAssess the clients operations, supply chain, and commercial workflows to identify two or three quantified opportunities where AI deployment can create measurable value.
Sell Follow-On WorkTranslate identified opportunities into clear scopes of work and lead the expansion from discovery through client alignment and signed SOWs.
Own Delivery QualityMaintain single-point accountability for the client relationship and business outcome. Oversee the embedded delivery team through a senior FDE lead or delivery lead.
Manage Commercial PerformanceOwn SOWs, pricing, margin, and delivery quality. Establish a written scope baseline and weekly issue log to maintain alignment across the client and delivery teams.
Build Reusable CapabilitiesHarvest at least one reusable component from the engagement for Turings Enterprise AI platform.
The Anti-SellCommercial and delivery ownership: This is not a pure delivery or project management role. You will be expected to identify opportunities, sell follow-on work, own commercial terms, and remain accountable for the client relationship and outcome.
Regular client presence: The role requires a willingness to work on site with the client regularly.
High accountability: You will be responsible for connecting account expansion, commercial execution, and delivery quality.
Our Strategic Account Director, Enterprise AI (CPG) Typically HaveConsumer packaged goods experience: Experience working in the consumer packaged goods industry, particularly with clients or operations based in the Dallas area, is highly desirable.
Deep enterprise account ownership: Typically 8+ years of experience in enterprise technology delivery or consulting, with a track record of owning a named client relationship.
Commercial expansion experience: Experience expanding an enterprise account across multiple buying centers and selling follow-on work, not only delivering initially defined projects. You should be comfortable owning SOWs, pricing, margin, and account growth.
End-to-end delivery leadership: Experience overseeing delivery teams and maintaining single-point accountability for the client relationship, business outcome, and delivery quality.
Recent AI or data deployment experience: Experience with AI or data deployments within the last two years, along with the ability to build trust with senior stakeholders, open conversations with new sponsors, navigate ambiguity, and communicate clearly across commercial, operational, and technical teams.
Candidates whose experience is limited to delivery or project management without commercial ownership, or who lack recent AI or data deployment experience, will not be a fit for this role.
