Business Operations

About the Role

As part of our Business Operations team, you'll work directly with our executive team to translate strategic priorities into operational reality. This isn't a scheduling or note-taking role, you'll own ambiguous, cross-functional problems end-to-end, stand up new functions from scratch, and bring rigor to how the company operates as it scales.

What You'll Do

• Work directly with leadership team to identify, prioritize, and drive the company's strategic initiatives
• Build and own new operational functions as the company scales — from planning and reporting processes to systems for finance, people, and GTM operations that don't yet exist
• Drive cross-functional projects from ambiguity to execution, working directly with engineering, GTM, and finance to unblock progress and hold owners accountable to deadlines
• Help run the operating cadence of the company: goal-setting, weekly/monthly business reviews, and org-wide planning
• Get into the technical details where needed — jumping in to support different verticals
• Identify gaps in how the company operates before they become urgent, and build the lightweight systems and processes to close them
• Support hiring across the company as we scale the team

Requirements

• 2-5 years of experience in a high-ownership, cross-functional role; chief of staff, business operations, strategy & operations, management consulting, or founding a company
• Experience at a hyper-growth startup, ideally one that scaled quickly and required building new functions and processes from scratch
• Some technical fluency — comfortable having technical conversation, especially in the multi-modal data space, understanding basic infrastructure or model training concepts, or working directly with engineers, even if you're not an engineer yourself
• Strong business operational instincts: comfort with financial models, dashboards, and translating ambiguous goals into concrete plans
• High agency and a bias toward action. You should be comfortable picking up unfamiliar problems and driving them to resolution without much guidance
• Strong organizational skills and the ability to manage multiple concurrent work-streams without dropping details

Nice to Have

• Experience building out a specific function (finance, people ops, GTM ops)
• A technical background (CS, engineering, or a related field) even if your career has moved into operations or strategy

Benefits

• 401(k) and full health insurance
• Breakfast, lunch, and dinner covered, plus your choice of snacks
• Ubers covered home
