The ideal candidate is a compelling storyteller with a deep understanding of AI, generative AI, and machine learning; a strategic thinker who balances executional excellence with long-term positioning; and an executive-level communicator who conveys complex concepts through concise, clear messaging. This is a high-visibility role that partners closely with Product, Product Marketing, Corporate Communications, Sales, Customer, and Executive teams.
Responsibilities
Strategy & Program Leadership
  • Own, lead, and scale the Analyst Relations function and overall AR strategy at C3 AI.
  • Develop program-wide and analyst-level goals and concrete, measurable objectives that advance C3 AI's thought leadership and market position.
  • Build and maintain the annual AR plan, engagement calendar, and budget; manage analyst-firm subscriptions, seat allocation, and internal access to inquiries.

Analyst Targeting & Engagement
  • Identify target analysts and firms aligned with C3 AI's business, product, and industry domains, and build an actionable coverage map.
  • Define individual engagement plans and lead analyst engagements across briefings, inquiries, advisory sessions, and strategy days.
  • Cultivate and sustain strong, trusted relationships with key analysts covering enterprise AI, data platforms, generative AI, and relevant industry domains.

Evaluations & Competitive Positioning
  • Identify and lead C3 AI's participation in key evaluations - including Gartner Magic Quadrant, Forrester Wave, and IDC MarketScape - and secure and defend a leadership position for C3 AI.
  • Manage the full evaluation lifecycle: RFI/questionnaire responses, demo scenarios and scripts, reference-customer coordination, briefing decks, and disclosure and submission timelines.
  • Proactively shape analyst thought leadership and industry perspectives across market guides, hype cycles, forecasts, and forward-looking research.

Narrative & Enablement
  • Prepare tailored product and customer narratives for individual analysts in collaboration with Product, Product Marketing, and Customer teams.
  • Prepare, coach, and dry-run executives and subject-matter experts for analyst briefings; build briefing decks, talk tracks, and messaging frameworks.
  • Coordinate with Corporate Communications/PR and Product Marketing to amplify favorable analyst positions, reports, and quotes across channels.

Insight, Measurement & Reporting
  • Synthesize analyst feedback into competitive, product, and go-to-market intelligence and channel it back to Product, Marketing, and Sales.
  • Enable Sales to leverage analyst reports, rankings, and quotes throughout the sales cycle.
  • Define, track, and report AR KPIs - e.g., analyst sentiment and mindshare, share of voice, evaluation rankings and trajectory, briefing and inquiry volume, and influence on pipeline.
  • Effectively and proactively communicate AR program status, results, and risks to executive leadership and the broader organization.

Qualifications
  • Bachelor of Science in a STEM field.
  • 10+ years of experience in analytical enterprise or B2B environments.
  • 3+ years of experience leading Analyst Relations for enterprise software companies.
  • Demonstrated track record of improving positioning in industry evaluations such as Gartner Magic Quadrant, Forrester Wave, or IDC MarketScape.
  • Working expertise in analytics, AI/ML, deep learning, generative AI, and data science, with the ability to engage analysts credibly on technical topics.
  • Excellent verbal and written communication and presentation skills, with strong executive presence.
  • Experience collaborating cross-functionally to mobilize Product, Customer, and executive leadership.
  • Strong strategic thinking, program and project management, problem-solving, and a bias for action.
  • Passion for self-learning and staying current in relevant domains.
  • Candidates must be authorized to work in the United States without the need for current or future company sponsorship.

Preferred Qualifications
  • MBA or Master of Science.
  • An established network of relationships with analysts covering enterprise AI, data platforms, and enterprise software.
  • Experience managing analyst-firm contracts, budgets, and an AR team or agency.
