About Us

At MAI (pronounced “my”), we're on a mission to democratize advanced advertising technology. We believe that cutting-edge marketing tools, once exclusive to large enterprises with massive budgets, should be accessible to everyone. Our platform uses AI agents to automate and optimize performance marketing, empowering small and mid-sized businesses to scale their ad spend profitably without the need for an agency or endless hours of manual campaign management.

Founded by ad platform veterans from Google and Instacart, we've successfully raised a $25 million Seed funding round led by Kleiner Perkins to accelerate our growth. This capital will be used to expand our teams, bringing our vision of intelligent, autonomous marketing to life. Our AI agents have already proven their value, helping clients drive meaningful lift in sales and return on ad spend, and managing hundreds of millions in monthly ads spend across Google, Microsoft, and Meta.

Why Join Now

Building the infrastructure for intelligent AI agents is uncharted territory—and we’re writing the playbook. As a Client Partner at MAI, you’ll be part of our go-to-market team, helping shape how we engage and scale with eCommerce brands. You’ll prospect, pitch, and close customers, while directly influencing our GTM motion, tooling, and product roadmap through your customer insights. This is a rare opportunity to join an AI-native company at an inflection point—where each deal you close shapes the trajectory of our business.

  • Act as a trusted advisor to marketers, understanding how they think about growth and profitability, and guiding them through the transformation as they leverage AI to expand capabilities and free up resources to tackle other strategic objectives.

  • Collaborate cross-functionally with product, ops, and marketing to share customer feedback, influence roadmap priorities, and co-develop scalable GTM processes.

  • Maintain CRM excellence, documenting learnings, activities, and performance data to continuously improve targeting and efficiency.

What You’ll Bring
  • 4-8 years of full-cycle sales experience, with a proven record of exceeding quota.

  • Experience selling Ads, AdTech, or Marketing SaaS to enterprise, mid-market or and/or growth-stage performance marketers.

  • Experience or high adaptability to early-stage product sales, helping build initial go-to-market playbooks and partner with operations and marketing to enable process.

  • Deep understanding of sales principles and frameworks, plus the ability to adapt and iterate them in a fast-moving environment.

  • Analytical and data-driven mindset, using metrics to inform strategy and drive decision-making.

  • Strong problem-solving, prioritization, and communication skills; thrives under pressure and deadlines.

  • A team player with leadership potential—capable of mentoring others as the team scales.

What We Do

MAI was founded by technologists and operators who spent over a decade building ad platforms and e-commerce engines. They saw that growth-stage businesses often lacked access to the advanced growth technology powering the largest platforms, and set out to change that. Today, a rapidly growing network of D2C brands and apps rely on MAI’s intelligent agents to simplify marketing complexity, uncover actionable insights, and autonomously drive measurable results. Backed by Tier-1 VCs, MAI is pioneering autonomous growth agents that bring advanced data science and machine learning to every business, and work around the clock to help them reach their full growth potential.
