• Build relationships across the organization
• Identify gaps, inefficiencies, and opportunities
• Drive results on tight timelines
• Pull and analyze data to inform decisions and track progress
• Communicate clearly with stakeholders ranging from engineers to executives
• Pick up whatever needs doing, even when it's outside your comfort zone

Required qualifications

• Relevant experience in consulting, investment banking, or operations at a high-growth technology company
• Demonstrated ability to operate autonomously and deliver results without close supervision
• Strong analytical foundation
• Ability to communicate credibly with both technical and non-technical teams
• Track record of exceptional performance in whatever you've pursued
• High tolerance for ambiguity, context-switching, and intensity

Nice to have

• Technical degree (CS, engineering, math, physics)
• Worked as an early employee at a startup where you operated well beyond your job description
• Have been a Chief of Staff or BizOps lead at a scaling company
• Care deeply about building teams and culture, not just processes
