About Nomi AI
Nomi AI is changing how businesses connect with their customers, patients, students, and employees. We're an AI-powered conversational platform that goes beyond old-school surveys. Instead of low completion rates and endless manual follow-ups, Nomi AI uses smart, two-way phone conversations to gather deep insights, understand sentiment, and give real-time, actionable plans. Our goal is to help organizations make smarter, faster decisions by truly understanding the voice of their audience.
The Role
We’re seeking a bold, entrepreneurial CEO / AI Business Leader to lead our AI unit at Nomi. This is a rare opportunity to build from the ground up, shape strategy, validate product-market fit, and scale a high-growth AI venture with full autonomy.
If you're energized by AI, early-stage company building, and want the freedom to create something truly meaningful—this could be your moment.
