Compliance & Security Posture
- Maintaining security policies and ensuring they're followed — not just documented
- Access reviews, security awareness, and incident response coordination
- Building a compliance program appropriate for a company that handles client infrastructure and data
AI-Enabled Operations
- Orchestrate AI agents that automate business processes — invoicing, access provisioning, compliance checks, contract review
- Define workflows, set quality thresholds, review outputs at approval gates, escalate when judgment is needed
- Continuously improve the processes AI agents automate — the workflows you build inform the methodology we sell to clients
Who you are
- Master's degree in Business Administration, Finance, Information Systems, Operations Management, or a related field
- 2–4 years of professional experience in operations, finance, or a generalist business role. We need someone who's been accountable for real outcomes with a track record of success.
- Hands-on experience with at least three of the six areas above (Finance, HR, IT Admin, Business Ops, Compliance, AI-Enabled Operations)
- Prior experience in a technology company or professional services firm (agency, consultancy, or similar)
- Comfort using AI tools in professional work — not as a curiosity, but as a daily operating method. You don't need to build models; you need to know when AI output is good enough to act on and when it needs human review
- Strong written communication — you'll draft policies, contracts, and internal documentation
- Comfort with ambiguity — you'll build processes from scratch, not inherit a playbook
Preferred
- Experience at a company under 50 employees where you wore multiple hats
- Familiarity with identity and access management concepts (SSO, RBAC, least-privilege)
- Exposure to compliance frameworks (SOC 2, ISO 27001, or similar)
- Experience with contract management or working alongside legal counsel
- Familiarity with modern business tools (accounting software, HRIS platforms, project management)
