About The Team

Life360 is the family safety and connection platform trusted by more than 100 million monthly active users around the world. Our growth over the next several years will come from expanding internationally and moving into new business adjacencies, with AI acceleration underpinning both. This role helps shape those decisions.

You'll join a deliberately lean Strategy & Corporate Development team, working directly with the VP of Corporate Development and alongside senior leaders across the company. You'll own important analysis behind where we grow next, and you'll introduce the AI agents that let a small team cover far more ground.

About the Job

The decisions behind Life360’s next stage of growth, which international markets to enter, which adjacencies to pursue, and which companies to buy or invest in, depend on analysis our executive team can rely on. We’re hiring a strategy and corporate development practitioner to lead that analysis and turn it into decisions and deals.

You’ll frame the question, build the models, and make the recommendation, then stay with the work as it moves into live acquisitions and investments. You’ll also build the AI agents that help a small team move faster, from tracking potential targets to running repeatable target analysis.

What You'll Do

In Your First Year

• Two strategic analyses that earn executive support: Lead two strategic analysis processes from framing through recommendation that hold up to executive challenges.
• Two acquisition candidates worth championing: Find and recommend one international and one adjacent acquisition candidate, building cross-functional support.
• Our first agents: Act as the catalyst for building agents on the team to identify and track potential targets and run repeatable target analysis.
• Strong analytical work on live deals: Own key analytical workstreams on acquisitions and strategic investments, including market sizing, operating and valuation models, and diligence analysis.

What We’re Looking For

• You drive the work: Take an ambiguous problem and run it to a recommendation, defining outputs, timelines, and following through on initiative.
• You build and deploy AI agents: AI-native experience designing and deploying agents into real workflows using tools such as Claude, Claude Code, MCP connectors, or comparable frameworks.
• You bring intellectual rigor: Build financial models and valuations from first principles, pressure-test assumptions, and defend numbers.
• You work well with senior leaders: Communicate clearly in writing and in the room, welcome hard questions, and build stakeholder credibility.
• You have the foundation: Roughly 5 to 8 years in investment banking, management consulting, private equity, venture, corporate development, or strategy at a high-growth technology company.
