About The Position

As the Chief of Staff (Commercial & BD), you will serve as the CEO’s strategic "force multiplier," specifically focused on accelerating our commercial engine. This is not an administrative role; it is an entrepreneurial, high-stakes leadership position designed for a future executive. You will bridge the gap between high-level strategy and boots-on-the-ground execution, driving revenue-generating initiatives and securing our position in the energy and data center markets.

Requirements

• 5+ Years of Experience: Ideally from top-tier strategy consulting (MBB), Investment Banking, Private Equity, or a "Head of Ops/Growth" role at a Series A-C tech startup.
• Obsessed with the physical layer of AI—power grids, liquid cooling, and the shift toward decentralized high-performance computing.
• Can build a complex financial model in Excel and write a compelling investment memo.
• Identifies bottlenecks and solves them, whether that means managing a legal review or diving into technical specs.

Responsibilities

• Design and execute go-to-market initiatives to penetrate the data center and energy infrastructure sectors.
• Identify high-value opportunities and build the playbooks to capture them.
• Partner with the CEO to lead high-stakes negotiations and business development meetings.
• Ensure complex deals move from initial handshake to executed contract.
• Build a world-class understanding of power markets, GPU cloud dynamics, and data center real estate.
• Translate market trends into actionable insights that dictate our commercial roadmap.
• Serve as a high-EQ representative of the CEO in meetings with investors, hyperscalers, and energy providers.
• Act as the primary point of contact for external stakeholders when the CEO is unavailable.
• Break down silos between Engineering, Finance, and Operations to ensure our technical capabilities align with our commercial promises.
• Lead the creation of high-impact materials for Board meetings and fundraising rounds, distilling complex commercial progress into clear, quantitative narratives.
• Take end-to-end ownership of "unstructured" problems—from scouting new site locations to structuring creative financing models for energy assets.
