Who We Are
At Workhelix, our ambition is to lead the new category of Business Transformation Management (BTM), helping organizations adopt technologies like Generative AI. We offer two SaaS products: one for planning GenAI initiatives using workforce data, and another for monitoring ROI with advanced research methodologies. We have pioneered a task-scoring method to identify top GenAI opportunities, ensuring clear, data-driven deployment strategies. Our ROI monitoring suite applies cutting-edge economics to provide accurate, ongoing insights into the impact of GenAI implementations. Renowned AI and Economics thinkers including Andrew Ng, and cofounders Andy McAfee and Erik Brynjolfsson stand proudly behind our mission.
We maintain a culture established on four key principles: reliance on scientific evidence and debates rather than personal judgment and experience; embracing autonomy with alignment to prevent bureaucracy; encouraging speed, iteration, and rapid feedback over exhaustive planning; and fostering open, good faith discussions, allowing criticism to be delivered and received in an egalitarian environment.
This is a full-time, remote opportunity open to job seekers in the Greater San Francisco area.
