      About Brain Co.

      Brain Co. is an applied AI startup co-founded by Jared Kushner and Elad Gil, and backed by leading Silicon Valley builders including Patrick Collison and Andrej Karpathy.

      We are building AI applications for the world’s most important institutions, delivering impact on real-world problems across governments, healthcare systems, and critical industries.

      Our progress so far:

      • Automated construction permitting for a sovereign government → 80% faster, unlocking $375M+ in value

      • Optimized supply chains for a leading global energy company → 30% lower cost, 99% reliability, preventing $100M+ in losses

      • Streamlined hospital patient care across national health systems → 40% better outcomes, 80% less admin work

      Company momentum:

      • Raised a $55M Series A from leading investors

      • Built a team of 70+ AI experts from Tesla, Google DeepMind, NVIDIA, and Databricks

      At Brain Co., we focus on applying frontier AI to real institutional challenges, working alongside governments, healthcare systems, and critical industries to modernize how essential services operate.

      We are looking for leaders who want to help bring new technology into institutions that impact millions of people.

      About The Role

      We’re hiring a Government Strategy & Partnerships Lead to help bring Brain Co.’s AI products into state, local, and federal government organizations. You’ll work directly with senior leadership and report to Marne Levine, COO, to develop relationships across government networks, unlock pilot programs, and navigate the complex processes required to deploy technology in public sector environments. This role is ideal for someone who understands the intersection of government operations, policy, and technology and wants to help modernize how public institutions operate.

      What You’ll Do

      • Build relationships with leaders across state, local, and federal government

      • Navigate government procurement, contracting, and policy processes

      • Identify opportunities to pilot Brain Co. products with public sector partners

      • Develop partnerships with organizations such as mayoral offices, state agencies, and national government associations

      • Work closely with Brain Co. product and engineering teams to align government needs with product capabilities

      • Help design and scale our public sector go-to-market strategy

      • Build networks across civic, policy, and government communities

      Who You Are

      We are open to a range of backgrounds, including:

      • Former government officials or staff (mayor’s office, governor’s office, federal agencies)

      • Public sector technology leaders or SLED sales professionals

      • Policy operators or regulatory experts

      • Government affairs or lobbying professionals

      • Operators with deep networks across state and local government

      You likely bring:

      • Deep understanding of how government institutions operate

      • Strong relationships across public sector networks

      • Experience navigating government procurement or contracting

      • Ability to operate in fast-moving startup environments

      • Curiosity about applying AI and emerging technologies to real-world problems

      Why This Role Matters

      Governments run some of the most critical systems in society, but often operate with outdated tools and infrastructure. At Brain Co., we believe frontier AI can dramatically improve how public institutions serve their communities. You’ll play a key role in helping bring those capabilities to life.

      Join Us

      If you’re excited about helping modernize government and bringing frontier AI into the public sector, we’d love to hear from you.

      Location

      Flexible location. Regular travel to government partners and Brain Co. offices will be expected.

      Compensation

      Competitive compensation including salary, equity, and performance incentives.
