We invest more than $250 million annually to ensure our AI-enabled technology and platforms meet or exceed the needs of our customers. RingSense AI is our proprietary AI solution.

This is where you and your skills come in. We're currently looking for: a Senior Director, AI & SI Alliances to own and scale our AI technology and systems integrator partner ecosystem end-to-end. This is a managing director seat with full accountability across all dimensions of AI and SI partnerships: executive relations, business development, offer strategy, go-to-market execution, partner interlock and QBRs, co-marketing, field enablement, co-sell, and joint customer success. You will be RingCentral's most senior voice in the AI and SI community - shaping how we jointly sell, build, and deliver the future of AI-native CX/EX. Job Duties: Executive Relations & Governance Own SVP/C-level relationships across all strategic AI technology partners (LLM providers, hyperscalers, AI platform vendors) and Global/Regional SIs; serve as RingCentral's principal executive contact across the AI & SI ecosystem. Design and lead a structured engagement cadence - QBRs, exec sponsor meetings, steering committees, joint innovation councils - and negotiate strategic tier designations that convert into co-sell priority and mutual investment.

Advance incremental opportunities across AI-native CX/EX orchestration, agentic automation, LLM integration, SI channel expansion, and joint vertical solution development (Healthcare, FSI, Retail, Public Sector). Offer Strategy, Marketplace & GTM Develop joint offer strategy with AI and SI partners: integrated solution bundles, vertical-specific propositions, and AI-augmented CX/EX offerings commercially structured for field execution. Own RingCentral's presence in AI partner marketplaces and SI solution catalogs; negotiate listing terms, co-marketing entitlements, referral programs, RFP inclusion protocols, and preferred partner designations. Build and operate partner and field enablement programs: joint solution training, certification tracks, sales toolkits, and technical readiness assets for both AI technology partners and the SI channel. Partner Interlock, Pipeline & Customer Success Lead cross-functional interlock (Product, Engineering, Sales, Marketing, Finance, Legal, CS) to ensure partnerships are resourced, integrated into roadmap, and tracked against committed outcomes; chair working groups and QBRs with partners. Establish joint pipeline governance, funnel tracking, and revenue attribution; champion joint customer success outcomes to drive adoption, expand at-risk accounts, and build referenceable AI-powered implementations. Lead and develop the AI & SI Alliances team; serve as RingCentral's internal AI and SI ecosystem SME, educating the exec team and product roadmap on ecosystem dynamics and partnership priorities.
