Over 1000 builders rely on Adaptive to give them real-time financial clarity and help protect their profit margins through better cash flow management, faster draws, and automated job costing.
In this role, you'll own a strategic, full-cycle sales process — engaging senior decision-makers, navigating complex organizational buying structures, and closing high-value, multi-stakeholder deals. You'll work closely with leadership, our BDR team, and cross-functional partners to land net-new enterprise accounts and position Adaptive as the financial operating system for the industry's largest builders.

Develop and execute a strategic account plan: Identify, prioritize, and pursue high-value enterprise targets within your territory. Build deep account intelligence, map stakeholder landscapes, and develop multi-threaded relationships across finance, operations, and the C-suite.

Lead consultative deal strategy: Conduct rigorous discovery to uncover enterprise-wide operational challenges, build compelling business cases tied to ROI, and position Adaptive as a mission-critical platform — not just a point solution.
Manage pipeline with executive-level rigor: Maintain accurate long-range forecasting, disciplined deal inspection, and proactive stakeholder alignment to navigate complex buying processes and manage extended sales cycles.
Collaborate across the organization: Partner with Leadership, Product, and Customer Success to structure deals, support implementation planning, and ensure a smooth path from signed contract to successful adoption.
Represent Adaptive at the highest level: Establish Adaptive's credibility as the enterprise financial operations platform for large-scale custom home builders, regional GCs, and national construction firms.
5–8 years of full-cycle SaaS closing experience, with at least 3 years focused on enterprise accounts
Proven track record of closing five-figure and above deals with long sales cycles, multiple stakeholders, and complex procurement processes
Demonstrated ability to sell to and influence C-suite and VP-level decision-makers — including CFOs, COOs, and heads of finance
Deep consultative selling skills — you build business cases, quantify ROI, and align solutions to executive priorities, not just features to pain points
Experienced navigating legal, security, and procurement review processes in large organizations
Highly strategic and self-directed — you own your territory like a business and operate with a long-game mindset
Familiarity with construction, fintech, or ERP software is a plus, but not required
Build something that matters: help reshape financial operations for the largest construction companies in the country
High-impact, quota-carrying role with real ownership over a defined enterprise territory
Direct access to leadership and influence over product direction — your deals shape the roadmap

Serve the people building the world around you. Your favorite local café. The new house on the corner. The massive new skyscraper at Central Park South. All built by our customers: skilled, creative people who have spent their lives bringing neighborhoods to life
Adaptive has spent four years building a robust, mission-critical platform now relied upon by over a thousand construction companies to run their project accounting and operations. On the strength of that foundation, we're moving upmarket: mid-market and enterprise construction companies are pulling hard for agentic AI capabilities, and we've been investing heavily to deliver them.
We're looking for a Product Manager to help drive this next chapter of our growth, shipping reliable, enterprise-grade AI agents and expanding our platform to deliver industry-changing outcomes for the largest construction companies in the world. You’ll work directly with our Product Lead & Head of Growth, partnering day-to-day with our design and engineering team of 20 to ship products end-to-end. If you've been watching the rapid improvements in model capabilities and want to get direct experience building real agents that actually matter to real businesses, this role is for you.
We're building a suite of AI agents that automate the back-office work construction companies have been stuck doing manually for decades — things like compliance document tracking, subcontractor payment workflows, and field-to-office coordination. You'll run discovery for new agents, define what \"reliable enough to ship\" means, and partner with engineering to build evaluation frameworks that let us measure and improve agent performance over time. You'll also help shape how these agents fit into our broader platform as we scale from 1,000 to 10,000 customers.
Own product initiatives end-to-end, focusing on outcomes and real-world impact — not just outputs, timelines, or feature delivery
Define and shape product vision and strategy by distilling user needs, workflow complexity, and business priorities into a clear, scalable roadmap.
Be the voice of the customer. Run discovery calls, mine support tickets, and translate what you hear into clear problem statements — not feature requests.
Build, launch, and iterate on new capabilities from 0→1 and from 1→scale, ensuring fast learning cycles and high-quality execution.
Create clarity and alignment across design, engineering, and go-to-market teams
Set a high bar for execution, usability, and coherence across the platform.
3-5 years of experience as a product manager with a proven history of delivering complex technical products
Demonstrated experience building or launching AI-native or workflow automation products; comfortable reasoning about model behavior, edge cases, and tradeoffs
Strong technical acumen—you can go deep with engineers on tactical decisions and translate them into customer value
Exceptional product sense and user empathy, especially when balancing cutting-edge AI capabilities with enterprise requirements
High ownership mindset — you treat the product like it's yours, move fast when it matters, and don't wait to be told what to do
Competitive salary plus meaningful equity
Comprehensive health, dental, and vision insurance
401(k) match and flexible PTO policy

The role
Half of this year's revenue has come inbound and another quarter through channel partners, all without a dedicated marketing leader. ACVs tripled YoY and the sales team is scaling rapidly. Our customers give us an 80 NPS. You'd be the first marketing leader, with a huge amount of untapped demand to go after.
You'll work closely with:
Our CEO, on defining the category and building programs
Our VP of Sales, who scaled Klaviyo from $25m to $1B ARR, overseeing a team of 4 AEs growing to 8 by end of July
Our BDR manager, overseeing a team of 6 BDRs growing to 15 by end of July
A talented marketing associate on your team to start, plus the team you build out from there
Responsibilities
Define the category. We have first-mover advantage, and it shows up as wow moments on sales calls, but we haven't cracked how to tell that story at scale. You'll establish how we talk about what we're building, and amplify it into a category we own
Build awareness. Our buyers live in specific peer networks, industry associations, and channel partner ecosystems. You'll build the programs that get us in front of them, consistently
Run the system. Our TAM and target personas are clearly defined. You'll build the system that gets every account into our CRM, surfaces who's engaging with programs, and converts the warm ones into opportunities.
Qualifications
You have 5+ years of marketing experience, including owning product marketing and/or brand at an early-stage company
You're fluent with GTM tech, AI tools, and data
You thrive solving ambiguous problems
You love working as a player-coach, owning IC work to stay close to the operation while building up the team around you
Other
In-office Monday-Thursday in our New York or Boston offices. Top tier cash, equity, and full benefits.

As a Customer Success Manager at Adaptive, you'll be the primary advocate, technical partner, and growth driver for our customers from Day 1 onward. Reporting to the Manager of Customer Success and collaborating closely with our existing team of CSMs, you'll own the end-to-end onboarding experience, drive ongoing adoption and value realization, and grow each account by expanding the team of AI agents running their accounting.
Adaptive's Project Accounting Agents run construction accounting 24/7, and customers can start with a single agent or hire the full team. A core part of this role is knowing each customer's workflows well enough to spot where an additional agent — a Billings Clerk, an AP Clerk, a WIP and Forecasting Analyst, and beyond — will unlock more value, and then leading that expansion. You'll need to be technical enough to configure agents, guide integrations with customers' PM and ERP systems, and troubleshoot alongside our engineers.
Above all, this role is for someone who builds with AI rather than just talks about it — you'll be hands-on with the agents every day, shaping how they map to real customer workflows. This is an individual contributor role with ample opportunity to shape our customer success practices and grow your career alongside a fast-growing team.
Lead kickoff calls, discovery sessions, and training to ensure a smooth, efficient product launch.
Own the technical setup: configure agents, connect and validate integrations with customers' PM/ERP systems, and map each customer's accounting workflows to the right agents.
Decompose each customer's messy, real-world accounting process into agent logic — defining triggers, tools, approval gates, override paths, and dry-run modes — and decide where automation is safe versus where a human stays in the loop.
Customize implementation plans to align with each customer's workflows and objectives.
Develop and maintain onboarding materials: guides, checklists, video tutorials, and FAQs.
Serve as the day-to-day point of contact and trusted technical advisor.
Conduct regular business reviews to track adoption metrics, agent performance, usage patterns, and ROI.
Identify at-risk customers early and execute retention strategies to maximize renewals.
Own expansion within your book of business: identify where additional agents will drive value and lead the upsell from initial agents to the full team.
Analyze customer data and agent output to surface concrete upsell and cross-sell opportunities.
Partner with Sales on expansion plays and with Product on feature requests, and carry expansion targets tied to net revenue retention.
Champion customer feedback across the organization to inform roadmap priorities.
Partner with Engineering to diagnose and resolve agent behavior, output quality, and integration issues.
Tune agent configurations, prompts, and workflows as customer needs evolve, and refine agent logic when edge cases surface.
Exercise judgment about where automation is performing reliably versus where an output needs human review, and adjust approval gates and override paths accordingly.
Translate between customer requirements and technical implementation, so customers always understand what their agents are doing and why.
Continuously refine our success playbooks and workflows for scalability.
Build with AI to automate repetitive parts of your own workflow, and partner with Engineering to standardize best practices across the team.
Implement metrics and dashboards to monitor health scores, agent performance, and team performance.
Work alongside Support and Engineering to resolve complex issues.
Liaise with Marketing to develop case studies, testimonials, and referenceable success stories.
Share customer insights in weekly leadership meetings to align on strategy.
AI fluency. You build with AI, not just talk about it. You have hands-on experience using LLMs as a working instrument — prompt engineering, agent architecture, and skill/workflow design. You know how to decompose a messy human process into agent logic (triggers, tools, approval gates, override paths, dry-run modes), and you have judgment about where automation is reliable versus where it needs a human in the loop.
3+ years of SaaS Customer Success, Onboarding, or Enablement experience.
Demonstrated track record of managing full-lifecycle customer relationships and driving both retention and expansion revenue (upsell/cross-sell).
Technical aptitude: comfortable configuring software, working with integrations and APIs, reading and interpreting data, and troubleshooting technical issues directly with customers and engineers.
Exceptional verbal and written communication skills, with an ability to simplify complex technical concepts.
Data-driven mindset; comfortable using CRMs, reporting tools, and customer health platforms.
Highly organized, self-starter attitude; thrives in a fast-paced, evolving environment.
Bonus: experience in construction, real estate, accounting, or related verticals; familiarity with PM/ERP systems (e.g., Procore, Sage, QuickBooks); or a background working with AI/automation products.
Competitive salary plus meaningful equity
Comprehensive health, dental, and vision insurance
401(k) match and flexible PTO policy
A seat at the table in a rapidly scaling fintech startup
Unlimited opportunities for professional growth and leadership
This role requires you to work Monday–Thursday in our Boston office located at 10 High Street.

Adaptive is the AI-native financial automation platform for the construction industry. As a Sales Engineer, you own the technical side of the sales cycle. You partner with Account Executives on every serious opportunity: running discovery, designing the solution, building and delivering demos, and handling technical objections from finance buyers who have seen a lot of software and believe very little of it.
Partner with AEs to own the technical thread of the deal: discovery, solution design, demos, proof-of-concept environments, and objection handling
Run discovery that gets underneath the surface ask, mapping the prospect's systems, workflows, and reporting needs
Build tailored demo environments seeded with realistic data so buyers see their own operation, not a sandbox
Deliver demos to executive and operational audiences, from CFOs to project accountants
Scope technical requirements and integrations, and translate them into SOWs and deal documentation
Support RFPs, security reviews, and technical evaluation processes
Feed field learnings back to product and marketing
4+ years in pre-sales solutions engineering, sales engineering, or a similar technical customer-facing role at a B2B SaaS company
Strong demo craft: you can build an environment, tell a story with data, and adjust live when the room shifts
Comfort with data and systems: expert Excel, ability to read API docs, understanding of how integrations work
Working fluency with AI tools and the ability to speak credibly about AI capabilities and limits to a skeptical buyer
Executive presence and clear communication with finance and operations audiences
Strong written output: SOWs, technical responses, follow-up documentation
Construction or ERP experience is a plus, not a requirement. We will teach the domain to the right person
Competitive salary plus meaningful equity
Comprehensive health, dental, and vision insurance

This is a forward-deployed role. Once a customer signs, you are the person who makes the AI real: configuring, testing, and launching the agents that automate their finance operation. Compliance checks, payment gates, COI tracking, AR collections, billing automation, WIP and forecasting workflows. You sit inside the customer’s actual operation, decompose their messy human processes into agent logic, and own the deployment through go-live and beyond.
Design and configure AI agents for production customer environments: triggers, tools, approval gates, override paths, dry-run modes
Decompose real-world finance workflows into agent skills, and make the judgment calls on where automation is reliable versus where it needs a human in the loop
Test, debug, and iterate: when an agent produces a wrong output, trace whether the failure is in the prompt, the data, or the process design
Build integrations and data pipelines between customer ERPs and Adaptive, including one-off migrations from legacy systems
Validate financial output: trace agent-produced numbers back to source and fix the logic when it is wrong
Run onboarding through go-live: prerequisites, configuration, training, and the first month of production operation
Document what you build so every deployment makes the next one faster
Hard requirement — AI fluency and agent design. You build with AI, not just talk about it. Deep hands-on experience with LLMs as a working instrument: prompt engineering, agent architecture, and workflow design. Demonstrated experience deploying agents or LLM-powered workflows for real users — production, not prototypes. We will test this in the interview.
Structured thinking about data: expert Excel, comfort reading API docs and data models, SQL or scripting a plus
Construction finance literacy (WIP, percentage-of-completion, job costing, AIA billing, retainage, COI compliance) or the domain depth to learn it fast and hold your own with a controller
Familiarity with construction ERPs (Sage Intacct, Sage 300 CRE, Vista, Spectrum, Acumatica) and Procore’s data model is a strong plus
Customer-facing composure: you can run a working session with a controller, manage expectations through a rocky deployment, and communicate clearly in writing
High ownership and comfort with ambiguity. You define the playbook rather than follow one
Competitive salary plus meaningful equity
Comprehensive health, dental, and vision insurance
401(k) match and flexible PTO policy
