About NegotiateAI

We’re building a revolutionary enterprise platform to transform procurement. Our mission is to transform procurement into a core strategic function, starting with the manufacturing and industrial verticals. Our focus is to streamline indirect spend, delivering exceptional cost savings and operational efficiency to procurement teams everywhere. It’s time to bring innovation and efficiency to procurement.

As the founder, I come from a background in global sourcing and supply chain leadership, having grown and led organizations at Apple for nearly a decade. With backing from Menlo Ventures, we’re leveraging cutting-edge technologies like agentic AI, LLMs, and Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) to build a platform that guarantees enterprises millions in savings on their indirect spend.

If you’re excited about solving complex technical challenges and building a transformative product from the ground up, we’d love for you to join us.

About this role

This foundational teammate will build the infrastructure that powers our AI-driven procurement platform, enabling seamless data categorization and harmonization, Agentic AI-driven benchmarks, and Agentic AI-driven negotiations. You will lay the groundwork for scalable, innovative solutions that transform how enterprises manage their spend.

  • Design and architect the foundational infrastructure for NegotiateAI’s procurement platform, enabling seamless integration with ERP systems, supplier databases, and spend analytics tools.

  • Implement LLM, RAG, and Agentic AI pipelines to process and analyze large-scale procurement data, generate actionable insights, and power intelligent spend recommendations.
  • Apply data privacy principles and implement best practices for security, including data anonymization, key obfuscation, tokenization, training models within secure sandboxes, adhering to GDPR standards, and ensuring SOC II compliance.
  • Train LLMs and implement agentic AI tailored to procurement, creating intelligent agents that find online benchmarks, clean and triangulate dirty data to find critical part information, find contact information from suppliers online, communicate with suppliers, reduce costs, and drive measurable value for enterprises.
