About the Role
A fast-moving, seed-stage AI productivity software company is hiring a Technical Chief of Staff to work directly alongside the founding team. This is a high-impact, in-person role based in Stockholm — ideal for someone with a strong technical foundation who thrives in ambiguity, moves fast, and wants formative exposure to the inner workings of an early-stage startup. It's an exceptional launchpad for a future founder.

-
Partner directly with the founders across product, go-to-market, and operations to accelerate execution.

-
Provide technical context and project-level insights to support founder decision-making.
-
Drive high-impact initiatives end-to-end, identifying and focusing on what moves the company forward most.
-
Adapt rapidly as priorities shift in a fast-paced, high-pressure environment.
What We're Looking For
Required:
-
Strong technical background with solid CS fundamentals — formal computer science training or equivalent hands-on experience.
-
Demonstrated ability to translate strategy into concrete plans and deliver against tight deadlines.
-
Excellent communication and interpersonal skills; comfortable working closely with founders and across teams.
-
High stress tolerance and a strong work ethic; at ease with the demands of early-stage startup life.
-
Based in Stockholm or willing to relocate — this is a fully on-site role.
Nice to Have:
-
Interest or experience in branding, design, or social media channels.
-
Prior startup experience as an operator, engineer, or cross-functional contributor.
