About The Position

With the advent of reasoning models, intelligence has become a commodity. Judgment has not. We are disrupting the $400B management consulting industry by building an AI-native operating system for business decisions. We’ve raised a $10M seed from Tier 1 VCs and are led by founders from Google and top-tier Private Equity/Consulting firms. As our Chief of Staff, you are the "force multiplier" for the CEO and the founding team. You aren’t just an operator; you are a strategic partner responsible for ensuring our vision scales as fast as our technology. You will bridge the gap between high-level strategy and relentless execution. Why Join Us Seat at the Table: Work directly with the founders on everything from fundraising and team building to product-market fit. High Velocity: We are a small, elite team. You will have more impact here in six months than in six years at a large firm. Operational Ownership: You will build the company's "operating system"—the processes, culture, and hiring engines that define our DNA. Shape the Future of Work: Help us define how AI agents and human judgment coexist in the world’s largest enterprises.

Requirements

  • The "Swiss Army Knife": You are a high-agency generalist who can jump from a financial model to a customer interview to a hiring plan without losing momentum.
  • Low Ego, High Output: You care about the outcome, not the credit. You are willing to do whatever it takes to unblock the team.
  • Strategic Synthesizer: You can take "messy" thoughts from a whiteboard and turn them into a crisp, actionable plan.
  • Consulting/Finance Pedigree: You likely spent 2-4 years at a top-tier firm (McKinsey, BCG, Bain, Goldman, etc.) or a high-growth startup and realized you want to build the disruption, not just slide-deck it.
  • Exceptional written and verbal communication—you can tell a story that moves investors and candidates alike.
  • Analytical rigor: You are comfortable with data and can build the models to back up strategic bets.
  • Project management mastery: You never let a ball drop.
  • Willing to work 3 days a week out of our San Francisco office.

Responsibilities

  • Strategic Projects: Lead high-impact initiatives that don’t have a natural home yet—market research for new verticals, pilot program launches, or pricing strategy.
  • Operating Cadence: Own the "drums" of the company. Design and run our leadership meetings, OKR setting, and internal comms to keep the team aligned and moving fast.
  • Founding Team Proxy: Act as a surrogate for the CEO in meetings, synthesizing information and making decisions when the founders are deep in product or sales.
  • GTM & Growth: Partner with the founders to build our early sales pipeline, manage relationships with Tier 1 VCs, and prepare for our Series A.
  • Talent & Culture: Help us find and close the next 10 "Founding" level hires. Define what excellence looks like in an AI-first organization.
