Chief of Staff, Technology
About The Position
Ironsite is a tool company built by builders, for builders. We build rugged, hardhat-mounted cameras that capture egocentric vision data from the jobsite and turn it into a daily production report delivered to project leaders every morning by 5am. We help teams cut labor costs, improve safety, and finish projects faster. We have captured ~75,000 hours of construction footage across 7 states and just partnered with the nation's #2 hard hat manufacturer. In addition, we have secured over $13M from 8VC, South Park Commons, Jeff Dean (Chief Scientist @Google), amongst others. Now, we're building the team to scale nationwide.
Requirements
- Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Computer Science, or related technical field
- Strong judgment and high agency; ability to decide what matters, then make it happen without being told
- Enough technical fluency to hold credible conversations with senior engineers across hardware, firmware, software, and AI/ML. You don't need to write the code, but you need to follow the conversation and ask the right questions
- Comfort with ambiguity and context-switching across very different problems in a single day
Nice To Haves
- Experience at the intersection of hardware and software — wearables, robotics, IoT, cameras, or similar
- Prior experience as Chief of Staff, founding team member, or first-few-hires at a hardware or wearables startup
Responsibilities
- Identify leverage areas and remove blockers before they become problems.
- Surface the things the CTO needs to know, filter the things she doesn't
- Act as a trusted proxy for the CTO by representing her thinking in meetings she can't attend, and bringing back what matters
- Run the operating cadence: planning, reviews, decisions, follow-ups. Make sure the right people are in the right rooms with the right context
- Drive priorities to completion across HW, SW, and AI teams; own the cross-functional work that has no natural owner
- Serve as translator between disciplines, ensuring hardware, software, and AI teams stay aligned on each other’s constraints
- Take on whatever is necessary in the moment: hiring, vendor negotiations, customer escalations, technical investigations, investor meetings
Benefits
- Competitive equity package
- Full benefits including health, dental, vision, and 401k +6% match
