Job description
Corporate Strategy Associate – NeoCloud × Robotics × AI Agent Manhattan, NY | Full-time | On-site
KIDZ AI (NASDAQ: KIDZ) | New York, NY
About KIDZ AI
KIDZ AI is a publicly listed AI company operating across three converging verticals: AI tutoring / AI agent, robotics, and NeoCloud GPU infrastructure. We are building at the intersection of AI compute, physical learning hardware, and intelligent tutoring systems — and we move fast.
About the Role
We are hiring a Corporate Strategy Associate to identify, develop, and close strategic partnerships across KIDZ AI’s three core business lines. This is a role sitting directly alongside senior leadership roles. You will own relationships, move deals forward, and turn conversations into real pilots and signed agreements. This is not a support role. You will be in the room, on the call, and driving the deal.
Why Join KIDZ AI
- Work directly with the CEO and leadership team on live strategic priorities
- Get rare cross-vertical exposure across GPU infrastructure, robotics, and AI tutoring
- Operate inside a fast-moving public company with startup DNA
- Contribute to investor-facing materials, board strategy, and deal execution across all three verticals
What You'll Work On
- Source, pitch, and develop strategic partnerships across: AI infrastructure and cloud providers; robotics and STEM learning companies; AI tutoring and assessment platforms; consumer learning hardware; and education distribution partners
- Identify cross-vertical synergies and surface strategic risks and opportunities to leadership
- Develop and maintain investor-facing narratives across KIDZ AI’s three verticals — translating business milestones, partnership wins, and product developments into compelling IR communications, press releases, and strategic updates
- Map the competitive landscape across GPU infrastructure, K-12 robotics, and AI tutoring markets to identify the right partners and the right entry points
- Track and manage the full partnership pipeline — from first outreach through signed agreement — using structured databases and deal-tracking systems across NeoCloud, Robotics, and AI Tutor verticals
- Drive deals across the finish line by coordinating internal teams — product, engineering, operations, legal, and finance — and external counterparts
- Hold pilots accountable — track deployment progress, surface blockers, and push toward measurable outcomes
- Prepare strategic memos, presentations, and partnership materials when needed
What Success Looks Like
- Launching and supporting strategic partnership pilots
- Driving measurable execution outcomes across cross-functional teams
- Supporting scalable growth across all three verticals — NeoCloud, Robotics, and AI Tutor
We're Looking For Someone Who Has
- real startup experience — comfortable with ambiguity, no playbook, and wearing multiple hats at once
- Understands all three of KIDZ AI’s verticals — has working knowledge of or genuine curiosity about NeoCloud/GPU infrastructure, robotics and STEM education, and AI tutoring platforms
- Thinks in terms of execution, product outcomes, and business impact
- Communicates clearly across technical and non-technical teams
- Is proactive, organized, and comfortable managing competing priorities independently
Preferred Background
- 2+ years in startup strategy/ops, management consulting, or business development; strong command of databases and structured data tools (Excel, Airtable, Notion, SQL, or similar)
- Prior experience at an early-stage or growth-stage company (startup ops, founding team, or Series A–C environment)
- Exposure to one or more of: cloud infrastructure / GPU compute, robotics or hardware, EdTech or AI-native consumer products
- Experience in capital markets, strategic investment, or investor relations — including exposure to financing transactions, SPV structures, public company IR, or cross-border strategic deals is a strong plus
Compensation & Details
- Salary: $80,000+/year, based on experience
- Paid time off
- Visa sponsorship support available (CPT / OPT / H-1B / Green Card)
- Start Date: Immediate / ASAP
- Location: New York, NY — in-person role

Salary vs prevailing wage
Level I (entry)Management Analysts · New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ. Annual prevailing wages set by the Department of Labor (OFLC).
| Level | Prevailing wage | H-1B lottery odds* |
|---|---|---|
| Level I | $76,648 | ~15% |
| Level II | $104,978 | ~31% |
| Level III | $133,307 | ~46% |
| Level IV | $161,637 | ~61% |
This job pays $80,000 a year — that's Level I (entry). In the wage-weighted H-1B lottery a Level I registration gets 1 entry; estimated selection chance about 15% — below average.
* Odds are DHS projections for the FY2027 wage-weighted lottery (actual results vary by year and employer). Since the FY2027 cap season the H-1B lottery is weighted by wage level: Level I = 1 entry, II = 2, III = 3, IV = 4. The level is set by the offered wage against the prevailing wage for the occupation and worksite. Separately, a $100,000 fee for new H-1B petitions for workers outside the US was announced in 2025; as of September 2026 a federal court ruling keeps it unenforceable while appeals continue — check the current status.
