About the role

AI-led transformation in mobility and manufacturing; lead agentic-platform transformation for strategic accounts within Microsoft's Frontier Company, shaping opportunities, partnering with FDE/Industry Studios, and delivering measurable business outcomes.

Responsibilities

  • Lead the agentic-platform transformation in assigned S500 accounts — define each customer’s Frontier opportunity, facilitate envisioning and ideation sessions, and develop multi-horizon roadmaps tied to measurable business outcomes.
  • Ignite, shape, and secure market-making business partnerships by building senior CxO and business-executive relationships and establishing a strong Microsoft footprint in each assigned account.
  • Drive account-based revenue by creating, qualifying and landing Frontier and FDE opportunities across the account, defining the industry plays that support them, and carrying them through to customer value realization.
  • Lead and orchestrate customer engagement in partnership with the account team and the FDE and Industry Studio teams — aligning early on business objectives, bringing FDE in as soon as an opportunity is identified, and moving engagements to triage-ready quickly.
  • Co-innovate from intake to production — prototype agentic solutions with the studios, then turn high-value workflows into reusable patterns, thought leadership and best practices that other accounts and colleagues can adopt.
  • Collaborate with the external partner ecosystem (e.g., business leaders, GSIs, ISVs) on client and partner planning and on industry-specific strategies that add credibility and depth.
  • Shape the buyer’s narrative and amplify thought leadership internally and externally — clarifying priorities and trade-offs, and building Microsoft’s Frontier credibility, brand and mindshare in the industry.
  • Embody Microsoft’s culture and values by modeling a growth mindset, operating with start-up agility, contributing to others’ success, and delivering impactful results that build on collective ideas and efforts.
