Growth & Operations Associate

Zinda Law Group, PLLC•Austin, TX

3d•Onsite

About The Position

Zinda Law Group is building a bench of future business leaders by recruiting a small cohort of exceptionally high-potential, early-career people. These individuals will rotate through various departments including marketing, People, finance, operations, projects, events, SEO, digital work, and new businesses. This is a broad rotational position designed as a proving ground, not an entry-level support role. Depending on the week, responsibilities could include performance marketing, SEO, recruiting, HR, finance, event management, project management, analysis, or building AI workflows. Top performers will have opportunities for major responsibility as the company grows. The ideal candidate is not looking to specialize narrowly but wants to discover their most valuable contributions through hands-on work, including less glamorous tasks. The core attitude is to tackle the hardest problems and figure them out.

Requirements

0–5 years of professional experience
Recent grads or early-career professionals (2–5 years in) coming out of demanding environments — startups, consulting, finance, or technology — who are ready for more ownership than their current role offers
Something objectively difficult or unusual that you've accomplished — academic, professional, entrepreneurial, or project-based
Strong quantitative thinking plus excellent writing and ideas
A hard science, engineering, or math background combined with philosophy, English, literature, or another writing-heavy field is a strong positive
You must communicate exceptionally well — this will be tested, not assumed
You naturally use AI to solve problems — it's your default, not an afterthought
Examples of taking responsibility without needing someone to constantly tell you what to do
You want increasing responsibility, not a comfortable narrow job
If you only want marketing, only finance, or only HR, this is probably the wrong role
You're willing to do low-status, tedious, or unpleasant work when that's what's needed to finish the job — and you can point to a specific time you did

Responsibilities

Rotate across functions — marketing, People/HR, finance, operations, project management, events, SEO, and digital work — as business needs dictate
Take on new business initiatives as Zinda creates or acquires new ventures, with a path to major responsibility for top performers
Own projects end-to-end, using AI tools by default to move faster and produce better work
Step into a Cohort Lead role on a rotating basis (every 1–2 weeks) — running the daily execution check, tracking commitments, catching dropped work, and reporting status to Allie
Do the unglamorous work — the tedious, low-status tasks that no one else wants to do but that the team needs done
