You'll be the operational Swiss Army knife working directly with our founders, Chief of Staff, and leadership team. This isn't a traditional BizOps role with a fixed scope—it's a high-leverage position where you tackle whatever the most critical problem is right now, building solutions that scale as the company does. __ You'll be the person who: Works across multiple business functions as priorities shift—serving as connective tissue between R&D, GTM, #Finance, and #Operations Drives special #projects and strategic initiatives on behalf of the Chief of Staff and founding team, owning end-to-end delivery from ambiguous brief to measurable impact Defines, tracks, and optimizes key performance metrics across business areas, partnering with finance to ensure data-driven decision-making Owns monthly business reviews—synthesizing performance trends, insights, and recommendations into clear narratives that help leadership make better decisions Deep dives into critical business drivers, uncovering operational bottlenecks and inefficiencies across both business and technical operations Partners with technical teams to translate complex infrastructure requirements (compute planning, capacity management) into business cases and strategic recommendations Supports executive communications—preparing board materials, strategic presentations, and leadership meeting content that distills complexity into actionable insights Pressure-tests strategic alignment—assessing current projects against multi-year goals to ensure daily execution builds toward long-term success __ Questions We're Wrestling With How do we prioritize between competing operational needs when everything feels urgent? What metrics actually matter for understanding business health in frontier AI versus traditional SaaS? How do we translate technical infrastructure decisions (GPU cluster investments, compute allocation) into business strategy? Where are the hidden bottlenecks preventing us from scaling faster? How do we maintain execution velocity while building the operational discipline needed for sustainable growth? What does "good" look like for a business function we're building from scratch? __ Who Thrives Here You've worked in environments where ambiguity is the default and structure is something you create, not something you inherit. You're equally comfortable building financial models and facilitating cross-functional alignment meetings. You understand that the best strategy is worthless without execution, and the best execution needs strategic clarity. __ You likely have: 4–6 years of combined experience in business operations, strategy, consulting (MBB), investment banking, venture capital, or private equity—with at least 1–2 years as an operator within a high-growth company A bias for action with a can-do attitude—you thrive in ambiguous environments by bringing structured thinking to complex problems and always driving toward outcomes Executive presence and influence—proven ability to engage confidently with executives, technical teams, and operational staff, shaping strategic priorities across functions The ability to switch gears between high-level strategy and hands-on execution, collaborating effectively across all levels of the organization A commercially minded approach with sharp focus on translating operations into revenue growth and market impact Exceptional communication skills with proven ability to connect big-picture goals to tactical execution Deep passion for technology and the future of AI
