About the Role
This is a core operator role sitting directly alongside the CEO of a fast-growing consumer health and e-commerce company. You will own high-impact projects end-to-end across operations, growth, and finance, in a lean, no-bureaucracy environment where your work has immediate, visible effect. It is designed as a genuine launchpad into senior leadership.
What You'll Do
-
Partner directly with the CEO to turn ambiguous, high-stakes problems into structured analyses, decisions, and execution plans.
-
Support day-to-day operations spanning fulfillment, customer experience, supply chain coordination, and internal workflows.
-
Identify bottlenecks and inefficiencies, then design and deploy AI-driven solutions to remove them.
-
Use AI to scan the market for new products and ingredients, converting signals into a prioritized sourcing pipeline.
-
Build automated supplier discovery, qualification, and outreach workflows that operate at scale.
-
Design AI-assisted negotiation workflows covering pricing, minimum order quantities, and contract terms from first contact to signature.
-
Support growth initiatives across marketing experimentation, performance tracking, and channel analysis.
-
Develop financial models, dashboards, and reporting tools grounded in real unit economics.
-
Leverage AI, automation, and low-code platforms to replace manual effort with durable, scalable systems across all functions.
-
Own ad-hoc, high-priority projects and move fluidly between strategy and hands-on execution.
What We're Looking For
-
Degree from a top-tier university in engineering, science, math, business, or a related field.
-
Hands-on experience building AI-powered systems, automation workflows, or low-code solutions that delivered measurable business outcomes.
-
Proficiency with automation and AI platforms such as Make, Zapier, n8n, or equivalent APIs.
-
Experience as a startup operator or in a comparably autonomous, early-stage environment, rather than a primarily large-corporate background.
-
Strong analytical capability across operations, growth, and finance, including financial modelling and business intelligence tooling.
-
Experience with operational analysis, process optimization, or supply chain workflows across fulfillment, sourcing, or logistics.
-
Technical fluency, whether through an engineering or science background or self-taught coding with demonstrated applied output.
-
Experience conducting market research, supplier discovery, or vendor evaluation and negotiation.
-
Proven ability to own projects end-to-end from problem definition through execution and measurement.
-
High agency: you spot problems, take ownership, and execute without waiting for instructions.
-
Bonus: experience with growth analysis, A/B testing, or marketing analytics; familiarity with e-commerce, direct-to-consumer, or membership models; interest in functional nutrition or consumer products; passion for content creation and storytelling.
