About InstaLILY

InstaLILY builds AI that does the work. We automate complex workflows across the physical economy—industrial, healthcare, and construction—using AI agents that execute directly inside existing enterprise systems. We are backed by Insight Partners and supported by the Google, NVIDIA, and Microsoft ecosystems.

The Role: Scale the Nucleus

We have the foundation—anchor logos and proven use cases are already in place. Now, we need the leader to build the rest. This isn’t a “cold start” role. It’s an invitation for a mid-to-late career operator to act as the “CEO” of our Automotive business unit—trading corporate bureaucracy for the autonomy to scale a proven product-market fit. You will own the vertical strategy and high-level relationships, reporting directly to the COO.

What You’ll Do

Grow the Vertical: Leverage our existing anchor accounts to land the next wave of major logos. You know how to turn a successful pilot into a multi-million dollar rollout.

Build the Playbook: Create a repeatable sales and operations motion for Automotive. You’re building the machine that we will eventually scale a dedicated team around.

Industry Voice: Act as the bridge between our customers and our product team. You’ll ensure our AI is built to handle the specific operational hurdles unique to Automotive.

Own the Outcomes: From strategy to execution, you are the person responsible for the success of this vertical.

What You’ll Need

8–12+ Years in Automotive: You have deep roots in automotive (OEM, dealer networks, or aftermarket) and know how these companies actually move.

A “Scaler” Mindset: You’ve taken a successful concept and made it bigger before. You’re comfortable moving fast and building systems as you go.

Executive Presence: You can walk into a C-suite and command the room. You speak the language of the industry fluently.

AI-Native Thinking: You recognize that autonomous agents are the future of the physical economy and you want to lead that shift.

Why InstaLILY?

Real Traction: You aren’t starting from zero. The product works and the customers are already live.

True Sovereignty: This is your business unit. You have the autonomy of a founder with the institutional backing of a top-tier AI startup.

High-Execution Culture: We’re a sharp, low-ego team that prioritizes doing the work over talking about it.

Direct Impact: You’ll work alongside the CEO and COO to shape the future of the company.

Compensation & Benefits

Salary Range : $150,000 - $200,000 per year, commensurate with experience

Equity : Generous stock options awards and refreshers for top performers

Benefits: Medical, Dental, Vision, 401K, in-office Lunch reimbursement, Wellness Stipend, generous Parental leave, PTO and 10 US Federal Holidays, and more!

What We Do

Humans + InstaLILY = Superhumans. That is our mission at InstaLILY AI: to pair every person with an AI teammate who makes work faster, smarter, and more human. Our InstaWorkers™ are not bots or dashboards. They are better software — blending AI and code to create Code-as-Work, the ability to turn business workflows into bits and bytes that run themselves. InstaWorkers™ are already deployed at some of the world’s most demanding companies. They log into Salesforce, SAP, and ERPs to handle quoting, follow-ups, claims, and backlogs across the complex distribution economy — from physical goods to insurance policies to industrial parts. With Instalily, work is not just automated, it is codified. That means fewer delays, fewer errors, and more time for people to do what only humans can: sell, solve, and lead. We are an elite team of dreamers and doers based in New York City, united by one belief: when work becomes code, humans become superhuman.
