CodePath is the largest educator of college computer science students in the country. We've trained over 40,000 students from 1,000+ universities, and our partners include Amazon, Google, and other leading technology companies. We've spent nearly a decade training the next generation of technical talent, and we just launched a $150M initiative with Anthropic, building one of the most ambitious AI workforce programs in the world.

We believe technical skill is the fastest way to turn raw talent into real opportunity. We train the engineers the AI era runs on, building toward millions of learners, hundreds of millions in revenue, and billions in economic impact. If you want to own something and be part of a 0-to-1 journey at an organization moving at the speed of AI, this is the place to build it.

About the Role

Location: New York City or San Francisco

Type: Full-time

Reports to: SVP, Partnerships

Compensation: $165,000 - $200,000

The Opportunity

CodePath is building the partnerships required to expand AI-native technical education and economic opportunity for students across the country. CodePath is currently funded by major philanthropic partners including Schultz Family Foundation, Comcast NBCUniversal Foundation to Robin Hood Foundation, among many others. You will be our senior leader growing new partnerships and owning our existing portfolio of partners.

In this role, you will lead, build and grow a major portfolio of institutional funders and strategic partners, with particular emphasis on national and regional foundations, companies and other organizations capable of making six-, seven-, and eight-figure commitments.

This role is for a senior strategic relationship expert who can open doors, has trust with the leading institutional funders, and can turn shared interests into clear, fundable opportunities. You will manage a portfolio end to end, with support from a small team - from research and qualification through cultivation, proposal development, negotiation, close, renewal, and expansion, while helping CodePath strengthen the systems and cross-functional habits behind strategic partnership management.

What You'll Own

  • Own an annual individual revenue goal of approximately $40 million and actively steward a portfolio of approximately $100 million across current and prospective partners.
  • Build and manage a portfolio weighted toward institutional funders, including foundations, corporate philanthropy, and other strategic organizations making multi-year, six-, seven-, and eventually eight-figure commitments.
  • Develop a clear strategy, decision process, stakeholders, timing, and potential fit with CodePath’s programs and strategy.
  • Originate new relationships through targeted research, warm networks, conferences, ecosystem engagement, and thoughtful outbound development.
  • Lead the full partnership lifecycle: qualification, relationship mapping, cultivation strategy, concept development, proposal coordination, diligence, negotiation, close, stewardship, renewal, and expansion.
  • Create persuasive concepts, proposals, presentations, and executive briefs in partnership with grant writing, program, finance, research, and communications colleagues.
  • Prepare the CEO, SVP, and other executives for high-stakes partner interactions, including the objective, message, roles, likely questions, and desired next step.
  • Maintain accurate pipeline and forecast data, communicate risks early, and drive next actions across internal and external stakeholders.
  • Ensure a strong transition from close to delivery and stewardship so partner expectations, outcomes, reporting, and renewal strategy remain aligned.
  • Support the growth and operating maturity of the broader Partnerships team by sharing market intelligence, reusable tools, relationship insights, and effective practices.
  • Use AI tools to accelerate prospect research, synthesize information, prepare tailored materials, and improve portfolio management while applying sound judgment and protecting sensitive information.

What You Bring

  • A strong record of independently developing and closing complex institutional partnerships or philanthropic commitments in the multi six- and seven-figure range, with meaningful exposure to eight-figure opportunities.
  • Deep experience with foundations, institutional funders, or comparable strategic partners; existing credibility and networks in technology, education, workforce development, philanthropy, or AI are valuable.
  • Evidence of both hunting and stewardship: you can create new opportunities, not only manage inbound relationships or renew an inherited portfolio.
  • Excellent relationship judgment and the ability to navigate multiple decision-makers, ambiguous paths to yes, long sales or fundraising cycles, and competing stakeholder needs.
  • Strong strategic and analytical thinking paired with disciplined follow-through and attention to detail.
  • The ability to turn complex programs, outcomes, and growth plans into a concise and compelling case for partnership.
  • A highly collaborative working style and the ability to lead work across functions without relying on formal authority.
  • Comfort operating in a fast-moving environment, learning new subject matter quickly, and shifting between executive conversations and hands-on execution.
  • Practical fluency with AI tools and curiosity about how AI is changing education, workforce development, philanthropy, and the technology ecosystem.

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
