Sovereign Deal

Our Mission

Reflection is a research lab making intelligence open and accessible for everyone to use, customize, and build on. We build open models that let anyone control their intelligence and help shape the future of AI. Our mission: make intelligence open and accessible to all.

Executive Summary

Reflection partners with governments, sovereign-backed enterprises, and major conglomerates to build region-scale AI infrastructure and inference businesses—deals worth nine to ten figures that have no template. For many of these organizations, AI is not simply a technology investment; it is a new revenue stream and an opportunity to become a region-leading provider of AI infrastructure and services. These engagements require strategic commercial leaders to structure deals, navigate complex organizations, and connect technical capability to a credible business model across infrastructure, deployment, distribution, and expansion.

This role requires the executive presence to operate with chairs and CEOs, the creativity to shape partnerships that do not yet have a standard template, and the operating discipline to carry them from initial vision through signed agreement and deployment.

What You'll Do

• Lead large-scale engagements end-to-end—from executive vision and business-case development through evaluation, commercial negotiation, deployment, and expansion.

• Build and deepen trusted relationships with boards, C-Suite leaders, and technical teams, and communicate their priorities back into the company.

• Navigate complex enterprise structures (e.g., conglomerates) to find where authority, budget, data, infrastructure, and operating leverage sit across the parent company, shared-service organizations, and portfolio businesses.

• Translate advanced open-weight LLMs and token factory software offerings into strategic and financial outcomes by connecting model capability, customization, proprietary data, infrastructure, security, governance, and support.

• Position Reflection as a long-term strategic AI partner across opportunities such as enterprise agents, software engineering, R&D, industrial operations, supply chains, and customer experiences.

• Run disciplined account planning, qualification, value modeling, pricing, forecasting, executive sponsorship, and post-sale expansion for your strategic engagements.

What We're Looking For

• A track record of creating, shaping, and closing complex, multi-year agreements—likely contributing seven-figure+ revenue or comparable strategic importance.

• Executive presence, exceptional communication, and a hands-on operating style; comfortable engaging a chair or CEO, working through architecture with technical leaders, improving a proposal, and moving a difficult deal forward.

• Proven ability to navigate federated organizations with multiple business units, competing priorities, shared services, complex procurement, and both corporate and operating-company decision-makers.

• Technical credibility selling AI/ML, cloud, data infrastructure, cybersecurity, developer platforms, or complex technology to large strategic customers.

• Strong commercial mindset with demonstrated ability to build an executive-level business case, structure enterprise agreements, and connect technical adoption to measurable operating outcomes.

• Experience operating across cultures and geographies, with the willingness to travel extensively for customers and partners.
