Frontier AI USA - Remote Apply About Ping Identity

At Ping Identity, we believe in making digital experiences both secure and seamless for all users, without compromise. We call this digital freedom. And it's not just something we provide our customers.

It's something that inspires our company. People don't come here to join a culture that's built on digital freedom. They come to cultivate it.

Our intelligent, cloud identity platform lets people shop, work, bank, and interact wherever and however they want. Without friction. Without fear.

While protecting digital identities is at the core of our technology, protecting individual identities is at the core of our culture. We champion every identity. One of our core values, Respect Individuality, reminds us to celebrate differences so you are empowered to bring your authentic self to work.

We're headquartered in Denver, Colorado and we have offices and employees around the globe. We serve the largest, most demanding enterprises worldwide, including more than half of the Fortune 100. At Ping Identity, we're changing the way people and businesses think about cybersecurity, digital experiences, and identity and access management.

About the Role

We're hiring a Senior Technology Manager to build and scale strategic partnerships with foundation model providers, AI platform and infrastructure companies, and the hyperscalers and startups defining agentic AI. You will be responsible for identifying, negotiating, and operationalizing partnerships that establish Ping as the trusted identity and access layer for AI workloads. This is a high-visibility, builder role reporting into Ping's Technology Alliance Partner (TAP) organization, based in Silicon Valley to stay embedded in the market where these partnerships are made.

What You'll Do

• Identify, prioritize, and close strategic business development relationships with Frontier AI technology providers (foundation model labs, AI infrastructure platforms, hyperscalers, and emerging AI-native startups). Own end-to-end partnership lifecycles - from opportunity scoping and joint business planning through integration, co-sell enablement, and measurable revenue outcomes.
• Translate Ping's Identity for AI vision into joint solutions and go-to-market plays with partners, working closely with Product, Engineering, Marketing, and Sales. Act as the primary relationship owner and trusted advisor to key Frontier AI partners, representing Ping externally at partner briefings, industry events, and executive forums in the Bay Area and beyond.
• Build and defend partnership business cases, tracking KPIs, pipeline impact, and adoption to continuously optimize program investment and partner prioritization. Serve as the internal voice of the Frontier AI partner ecosystem, influencing Ping's product roadmap and competitive positioning as agentic AI and identity standards rapidly evolve. Leverage AI tools and automation to scale partner engagement, research, and reporting - operating with the speed and precision the Frontier AI market demands. Navigate co-opetition dynamics thoughtfully, building durable relationships even where partners and Ping compete for platform relevance. What You'll Bring 5+ years in business development, technology alliances, or partner management, with a track record of building and scaling partnerships with technology platforms or hyperscalers. Direct experience partnering with or working inside the AI/ML ecosystem - foundation model providers, AI infrastructure companies, or cloud AI platforms. Working knowledge of identity and access management, zero trust architecture, or a strong ability to quickly become fluent in it. Comfort operating in a nascent, fast-moving market - you've built zero-to-one partner motions before and are energized by ambiguity, not slowed by it.
• Proven ability to build joint business cases and GTM plays that resonate with both technical and executive audiences. Executive presence and negotiation skill, with a network across the Silicon Valley AI and cloud ecosystem. Data-driven approach to partnership management comfortable building dashboards, tracking KPIs, and tying partner activity to pipeline and revenue. High-agency, extreme-ownership operating style - you drive progress without waiting for direction and hold yourself accountable for outcomes. Based in or willing to work from Silicon Valley, with the flexibility to travel to partner sites, industry events, and Ping's Denver HQ as needed.

Veteran Status Select... Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability Form CC-305 Page 1 of 1 OMB Control Number 1250-0005 Expires 07/31/2029 Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities.

We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal.

To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential.

No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way.
