Chief of Staff

DefinedTalent • Princeton, TX

3d • Onsite

About The Position

DefinedTalent is partnering with a rapidly growing, venture-backed AI company that is transforming how complex, highly regulated industries leverage automation, intelligence, and scalable technology. Already working with enterprise clients and industry leaders, this organization is building innovative AI-driven solutions that have the potential to fundamentally reshape how critical business processes are executed. As they enter their next phase of growth, they are seeking a highly driven Chief of Staff to work directly alongside the CEO and executive leadership team. This is not a traditional Chief of Staff role focused on coordination and administration. This is a builder and operator role designed for someone who thrives in fast-paced environments, enjoys solving complex challenges, and wants a front-row seat to scaling a category-defining company. The Chief of Staff will serve as a strategic partner to the CEO, helping drive execution across company-wide initiatives, operations, growth strategy, fundraising efforts, partnerships, and organizational scaling. The ideal candidate is equally comfortable in the boardroom and in the trenches, someone who can move seamlessly between strategic planning and hands-on execution while helping create the systems, processes, and alignment necessary for sustainable growth.
