Partnerships Lead (Denver)
Aescape
*** Denver or San Francisco ***
We're looking for a Business Development Manager who can build strategic relationships and drive enterprise sales to accelerate market adoption as we launch the first AI-powered robotic massage experience. You'll be collaborating cross functionally with Product, Legal, and Customer Success teams as we transform the wellness industry through innovative autonomous human-robotics technology. This is an amazing opportunity for you to own the go-to-market strategy and develop your expertise in emerging technologies as we revolutionize the massage therapy industry. If this sounds like you, we'd love to hear from you!
Aescape is the NY-based lifestyle robotics company redefining self-care.
We announced the world's first commercially available, fully automated AI-powered massage experience with Equinox in March — and this is only the beginning. We are in a period of rapid growth, launching our category-transforming product throughout 2024 with global leaders in hospitality, wellness, sports and fitness.
Backed by $85M in funding from investors like Valor Equity Partners (an early investor in Tesla and SpaceX), we've assembled a team of top talent across connected hardware and fitness from industry giants like Amazon, Apple, Peloton, Tonal, Uber and more to bring people and robotics together for better living.
Publications like WIRED, Fast Company, Popular Science, Sports Business Journal, Fortune and Now This News covered Aescape, with remarkable enthusiasm.
