About CNTXT AI

CNTXT AI is a UAE-based Data & AI company delivering AI data collection, annotation, training data, robotics data, and enterprise AI solutions.

The company is expanding egocentric data collection operations that record real-world human activities for AI and robotics development.

About the Role

The Partnerships & Operations Lead – UAE builds and manages egocentric data collection operations across the country.

The role identifies and signs partnerships with businesses whose employees perform industrial, operational, manual, or skilled tasks.

Partner employees use CNTXT-provided smartphones and an app to record approved activities during their normal work.

Business Partnerships

  • Identify and approach businesses, build a pipeline of partners and sites, and meet business owners, senior management, operations leaders, and facility managers.
  • Present the partnership model, negotiate commercial and operational terms, and move prospects to signed partnerships and operational launch.
  • Build long-term relationships and expand successful programs across employees and locations.
  • Target industries include manufacturing, warehouses and logistics, construction, agriculture, automotive workshops, mechanical and electrical work, maintenance, food production, hospitality, cleaning, facilities, packaging, retail, and skilled trades.

Data Collection Operations

  • Identify participating employees and coordinate onboarding, smartphone distribution and activation, app installation and configuration, and recording-requirement training.
  • Ensure contributors understand recordable tasks and collection standards; track contributors and participating locations.
  • Monitor daily and weekly recorded hours and work with Quality and Operations teams to improve approval rates.
  • Resolve collection issues and scale successful locations to additional employees, shifts, and facilities.

Smartphone Operations

  • Coordinate smartphone allocation, activation, setup, app installation, distribution, asset tracking, charging and connectivity, replacement devices, collection, and redistribution.
  • Maximize smartphone utilization and high-quality approved data hours generated per device and location.

Partnership & Operations KPIs

Performance measures include qualified opportunities, signed partnerships, operational locations, participating employees, active contributors, and time from signing to launch.

Other measures include recorded and approved hours, approval rate, hours per contributor and smartphone, partner retention, and partnership expansion.

Requirements

  • 5+ years in business development, partnerships, operations, enterprise sales, field operations, or a similar role.
  • Experience with industrial businesses, factories, warehouses, logistics, manufacturing, construction, hospitality, agriculture, or similar sectors.
  • Demonstrated prospecting, business outreach, negotiation, and partnership-closing ability; comfortable visiting operational sites.
  • Strong execution, project-management, communication, relationship-management, and KPI-management abilities; manage multiple partners and locations independently.
  • Fluent Vietnamese and strong professional English. A strong Vietnam business network is highly preferred.

Preferred Background

  • Valuable backgrounds include industrial partnerships, manufacturing, staffing/workforce companies, logistics, field operations, B2B business development, enterprise sales, data collection, technology operations, AI or robotics, and large-scale workforce programs.
  • AI experience is not required; the priority is understanding the Vietnamese business environment, opening partnerships, and executing operations.

First 90 Days

Build a pipeline across Vietnam and sign multiple partnerships across industries.

Launch smartphone-based collection at multiple locations and onboard participating employees.

Establish processes for smartphone distribution, training, collection, and tracking.

Increase approved collection hours and scale high-performing partners across employees, shifts, and locations.
