Solutions Operations Manager, Singapore
· Singapore

As Mistral AI's first dedicated Solutions Operations hire in Singapore, you will be the operational backbone of our APAC Solutions team and the critical bridge between our Singapore office and global headquarters in Paris.

This is a uniquely broad role combining two functions that sit in separate roles at HQ:
revenue operations (how the Solutions team goes to market, delivers, and measures impact) and people operations (how the team is staffed, grown, and deployed against customer needs). In Singapore, you will own both.

Your Solutions team is composed of AI Deployment Strategists, Applied AI Engineers and Scientists who design, deploy, and optimize AI solutions for Mistral's most strategic enterprise and government customers in Singapore and the broader APAC region. Your mission is to make this team faster, sharper, and more effective - while ensuring that every process, tool, and framework developed at HQ is meaningfully adapted to the Singapore and APAC context.

This is a high-impact, hands-on position at the intersection of strategy, operations, and execution

• Ensure reporting, tooling, and KPI frameworks developed centrally are implemented in Singapore with appropriate local calibration
• Coordinate with HQ on headcount planning, cross-regional staffing (e.g. when Singapore projects require EMEA or US expertise), and global delivery initiatives
• Champion knowledge transfer in both directions
  : bring global best practices into Singapore, and ensure Singapore's learnings (especially from the government and defence sectors) feed back into global process evolution

• Develop frameworks to standardize how the Singapore Solutions team approaches different customer technical needs, across enterprise, government, statutory boards, and defence/security clients
• Identify opportunities for experiment-driven improvements in the technical sales and implementation process, with particular attention to Singapore's public-sector procurement timelines and requirements
• Support the development of professional services offerings and engagement models tailored to the Singapore and APAC market, including fixed-price and outcome-based structures
• Help prepare materials for executive…
