  • 3+ years in a high-ownership operator role — consulting, startup ops, chief of staff, product ops, business ops
  • Systems thinking and technical fluency — you turn messy, ad hoc processes into structured, repeatable systems
  • Operational rigor — you don't just design processes
  • you drive adoption, enforce accountability, and iterate until they stick across multiple teams
  • Exceptional communication and ownership — you hold your own in rooms with engineers, PMs, and sales leaders

Nice to have:

  • Experience in enterprise SaaS and high-growth startups
  • Computer Science degree / background
  • Background building or deploying AI agents / LLM-powered workflows in production
What we offer:
  • 100% medical, dental & vision insurance coverage for you
  • Partially covered for your dependents
  • One Medical annual membership
  • 401k (including employer match)
  • Flexible PTO
  • Fertility HRA (up to $10,000 per year)
  • Parental Leave
  • Unlimited AI token usage
  • Pet insurance
  • Centralized home-office equipment ordering for all employees
  • Health and Wellness stipend
  • In-office perks: lunch, snacks, drinks, and more
  • Budget for intra-office travel
  • Relocation support to NYC or SF (as needed)
