About the role
About Centaur AI
Centaur.ai provides data annotation and datasets with a quality-driven workforce management system for teams building mission-critical AI, primarily in healthcare. We engineer accuracy from the start by harnessing collective intelligence, in which multiple experts compete, are benchmarked, ranked, and proven, so that a stronger signal consistently outperforms any single annotator. This delivers superhuman annotation at scale across text, image, video, 3D, audio, waveform, and emerging modalities. Built for domains where precision is non-negotiable, Centaur powers AI that can be trusted in production. Researchers and industry leaders choose Centaur because we make quality inevitable, not aspirational. Centaur is backed by leading investors, including Y Combinator, Accel, and Matrix, and closed a Series B led by SignalFire in late 2024.
Position Overview
The Director of Partnerships will own and lead Centaur's strategic partnership function end-to-end — from vision and strategy through day-to-day relationship management and deal execution. This is a rare role for someone equally comfortable building the playbook as they are rolling up their sleeves to execute it. You will be Centaur's primary relationship builder with AI platform providers, system integrators, resellers, and ecosystem partners, driving new revenue channels and deepening our position across the AI data and annotation landscape. You will report directly to the COO and work in close collaboration with the CEO, CRO, Sales, Operations, Marketing and Product teams.
Partnership Strategy & Development
- Design and own Centaur's partnerships strategy, identifying the highest-value partner segments, including data ecosystem players, AI/ML platform providers, GSIs, and VARs, and building a prioritized roadmap for engagement.
- Originate, structure, and close strategic partnership agreements that expand Centaur's distribution, product integrations, and market presence.
