Sierra is the leading platform for customer-facing AI agents, working with major brands including The GAP, Rocket Mortgage, SoFi, Sutter Health, and SoftBank. The company is headquartered in San Francisco with growing offices across North America, Europe, and Asia.
The Consumer Business Services team partners with businesses across CPG, commercial real estate, automotive & mobility, transportation & logistics, industrial manufacturing, consumer electronics, professional services, facilities management, construction, energy, and utilities.

You will go deep on your industry, patterns, and winning motions to scale your work.
