Corporate Development and Partnerships, Manager / Senior Manager | Housing

• Housing: We simplify how renters tour apartments, sign leases, submit maintenance requests, and stay connected with their property team—bringing everything they need for their home into one place.

• Healthcare: We make it easy to schedule appointments, complete intake forms, and we help patients communicate with providers, so everyone can focus on health instead of paperwork.

Corporate Development & Partnerships Team

The Corp. Dev. & Partnerships team is responsible for how EliseAI expands its footprint in housing and captures the value beyond the core platform. The remit spans strategic partnerships on the go-to-market side (distribution, channel) and the product side (integrations that extend what our platform can do), M&A, government affairs, and the strategic roadmap for high-value categories like payments and insurance. This team blends dealmaking, go-to-market, and policy with a mandate to own each initiative end-to-end - sourcing it, structuring it, and driving it to something live.Our goal is to enable EliseAI to capture more value across the housing ecosystem rather than sit adjacent to it.

Why Join

Growth and impact. It’s not often that you can get in on the ground floor of a funded (unicorn!) startup that’s scaling so fast. That means that instead of following a playbook, you’ll be writing it. Every single day you will be challenged to identify how we can scale and execute on it. You’ll learn what works when you succeed and what doesn’t when you fail. Either way, the rest of the team will be here to support you.
