Chief of Staff
About The Position
Our client, a high-growth technology startup based in San Francisco, is seeking a highly organized and resourceful Chief of Staff to join the Operations department. This is a high-ownership, high-pace operator role designed for an individual who thrives on variety and is eager to understand the inner workings of a scaling company. The Chief of Staff will act as a force multiplier for leadership, executing high-priority initiatives across recruiting, Go-To-Market (GTM) strategy, product, and general operations. This role is ideal for a "technical generalist" who enjoys automating manual processes and taking ambiguous problems from concept to completion.
Requirements
- 1+ years of professional experience, preferably within a fast-paced startup environment.
- Comfortable with light Python or scripting (leveraging AI tools where necessary) and advanced spreadsheet modeling.
- Exceptional written and verbal communication skills across various platforms and technical fluencies.
- Highly resourceful with the ability to figure out complex tasks independently while knowing when to seek strategic guidance.
- Experienced in conducting candidate interviews and working cross-functionally with technical and non-technical stakeholders.
- Ability to work on-site in the San Francisco office 5 days per week.
Nice To Haves

Responsibilities
- Process Automation: Utilize tools such as n8n, GPT, and various AI integrations to automate internal workflows and GTM infrastructure.
- Operational Management: Oversee daily office logistics, bookkeeping tasks, vendor management, and the onboarding of new team members.
- Recruiting & Talent: Lead sourcing efforts and manage 3rd-party recruiter relationships to scale the engineering and go-to-market teams.
- Financial Modeling: Build and maintain lightweight financial models, including headcount modeling, revenue projections, and budget forecasting.
- Cross-Functional Project Management: Partner with leadership to drive experiments and ensure complex projects reach the finish line.
- Internal Communications: Structure product feedback from GTM initiatives for the R&D team and facilitate seamless communication across Slack and async documentation.
- General Support: Provide "all-hands-on-deck" assistance, ranging from coordinating legal documents and organizing team offsites to managing office supplies and snacks.
Benefits
- Competitive salary range of $120,000 – $200,000
- Equity: Significant equity package commensurate with a high-impact, early-stage role.
