  • Build operational processes and systems that can scale with the business.

  • Support go-to-market work, including messaging, experiments, and partnerships.

  • Turn feedback from candidates and hiring teams into actionable product priorities.

  • Move independently between operational, strategic, recruiting, and special projects as priorities evolve.

  • Experience in founder support, strategy, recruiting, growth, special projects, or startup operations.

  • Previous Founder Associate, Chief of Staff, or comparable startup operator experience.

  • Ability to work independently across varied, ambiguous responsibilities and drive projects through to outcomes.

  • Interest in early-stage startups and AI-enabled recruiting or talent matching.
