Business Operations

About the role

This role sits close to the founders and works cross-functionally with research, engineering, operations, finance, legal, and external partners. There is no single “lane”, the mandate is to add leverage wherever the company most needs it.

Responsibilities

• Own and execute cross-functional projects with high ambiguity and real business impact.
• Drive data, compute, and infrastructure partnerships, from sourcing through negotiation and management.
• Plug into deployment efforts: sourcing opportunities, structuring contracts, pricing, and operational setup.
• Aid with and drive internal scaling initiatives such as office expansion, international operations, and company planning.
• Support investor, board, and external communications including decks, analyses, and prep.
• Act as an execution arm for founders and leaders, translating priorities into outcomes.

Requirements

• Strong analytical and strategic instincts with a bias toward action.
• Comfort operating independently in ambiguous environments.
• Commercial mindset and basic financial fluency (contracts, pricing, tradeoffs).
• Exceptional written and verbal communication.
• Willingness to do anything, paired with strong prioritization instincts and comfort pushing back when work is low-leverage.
• Strong π-fit: respect for research and engineering culture, curiosity, and intellectual humility.

Qualifications

• Background in consulting, venture capital, private equity, or finance is a plus.
• Experience negotiating vendor, data, or infrastructure agreements is a plus.
• Exposure to startups that have scaled quickly or inflected suddenly is a plus.
• International operations or cross-border project experience is a plus.
