AI-Savvy Strategy Consultant

About Aytza

Aytza is building the future of strategic consulting. We’re an AI-native consulting firm that merges the depth of human expertise with the precision and speed of AI, designed from the ground up for healthcare startup leaders.

We flip the traditional consulting pyramid on its head: a core AI engine powers our data and analysis (with humans in the loop), enabling experienced advisors to support startups in a leaner, faster way. Our clients are CEOs and leaders navigating complex, high-stakes decisions in the healthcare space, such as launching new products and services, developing M&A strategy, or US market entry.

We’re a fast growing company and this is an exciting opportunity to work at the intersection of healthcare innovation, AI, and the market.

You’ll also be a key driver of how Aytza operates: shaping the tools, workflows, and methods that define what AI-native consulting looks like in practice. You won’t just use our AI infrastructure; you’ll help build and improve it.

This role is remote with Eastern Time business hours preferred and occasional travel (up to 20%) to meet clients and the team in person.
