Zip is an innovative AI-powered procurement orchestration platform based in San Francisco, CA. It specializes in streamlining the procurement process by providing solutions such as Intake-to-Procure and Procure-to-Pay, enabling organizations to automate purchasing requests, manage vendor relationships, and achieve better visibility into spending. Zip's comprehensive platform aims to enhance efficiency and reduce costs for businesses of various sizes across multiple industries, including life sciences, financial services, and technology.

📋 Description

• Embed with enterprise customers to understand their procurement and adjacent workflows at the process level: how work actually moves, where decisions break down, and where the highest-ROI problems sit. • Build and deploy AI agent solutions using Zip's AppStudio and AI infrastructure, configured to the customer's specific environment and data, not off-the-shelf. • Own the customer relationship and manage parallel workstreams across a small portfolio of accounts, keeping delivery on track and stakeholder trust high. • Surface the next problem worth solving before the customer can articulate it, with the commercial instinct to understand how that expands contract value. • Produce architecture documentation that captures what was built, why, and what it would take to generalize across other accounts. • Feed structured learnings back to product and engineering so the solutions you build make the platform more repeatable over time. • Represent Zip on-site at customer locations when required, running live testing and stakeholder sessions against real data and real workflows.

🎯 Requirements

• 3+ years working inside enterprise procurement, finance operations, or a related function in an operating role: Finance Systems, Procurement, Finance, etc. You have owned a finance process or technical stream end-to-end, not just advised on one. • Direct experience building AI agents or automated workflows for your own work. Zip's AppStudio, Claude, N8N, Make, Zapier, or similar. You can show something you built that is live and running. • A track record of owning complex customer engagements independently, from scoping through delivery, with accountability for outcomes rather than just outputs. • Enough technical fluency to build integrations, read API documentation, and diagnose workflow failures without needing an engineer on call. • Enough procurement or finance domain knowledge to earn credibility quickly with an AP Director, CPO, or CFO. Formal credentials (CPP, CPSM, CPA, or equivalent) are a plus, not a requirement.
