Job Description:

The Chief of Staff (CoS) to the CEO is a senior, high-leverage operator who serves as an extension of the CEO. This role exists to increase executive decision velocity, enforce operational rigor, and ensure the company’s highest-priority initiatives are executed with clarity, discipline, and measurable outcomes. The CoS owns cross-functional initiatives on behalf of the CEO, builds and maintains the executive operating cadence, and prepares decision-ready materials for the executive team and Board of Directors. The role also acts as a bridge between business leaders and engineering, driving internal process automation and systems improvements that enable Formic to scale without linear headcount growth. This is not an administrative role. It is a judgment-heavy execution role operating at the CEO, executive leadership, and board level.

Job Responsibility:

  • Own and drive high-priority cross-functional initiatives end-to-end
  • Translate CEO intent into clear objectives, owners, timelines, and success metrics
  • Act on behalf of the CEO in internal leadership forums when delegated
  • Lead company-wide metrics and operating cadence, including weekly reviews and quarterly planning
  • Partner with functional leaders to define, standardize, and maintain KPIs and OKRs
  • Maintain a single, trusted executive-level view of company performance
  • Surface data-driven insights across financials, unit economics, churn, utilization, and margin drivers
  • Build and own analytical models, dashboards, and recurring executive reporting
  • Partner with teams to improve systems, data pipelines, and reporting reliability
  • Prepare decision-ready materials, board decks, and executive presentations
  • Synthesize complex, cross-functional inputs into clear, concise narratives
  • Resolve ambiguity across teams and functional handoffs
  • Identify execution bottlenecks and partner with teams to drive automation and tooling improvements
  • Enable scaled operational performance without proportional headcount growth

Requirements:

  • 5–8+ years in strategy, operations, consulting, investing, or senior operational roles
  • Proven ability to independently own high-impact initiatives
  • Strong analytical skills with comfort interpreting complex business data
  • Excellent communicator with experience briefing executives and boards

Nice to have:

  • Located in the San Francisco Bay area, with interest and ability to work in person, ideally in the East Bay
  • Experience at high-growth startups or scale-ups
  • Exposure to data teams, internal tooling, or systems automation
  • Familiarity with SaaS, robotics, or industrial technology business models
  • MBA or equivalent real-world operating experience
What we offer:
  • Equity in Formic
  • 99% covered Medical, Dental, and Vision insurance plans, with 75% coverage for dependents
  • Additional Fully Covered Insurance Benefits: FSA & DCFSA, Life Insurance, Short-Term Disability, and Long-Term Disability
  • Employee Assistance Program (EAP)
  • Paid Parental Leave
  • Company-sponsored 401(k)
  • Home Office Stipend
  • Monthly Cell-Phone Reimbursement
  • Flexible Time-Off
  • Paid Company Holidays
