Chief of Staff

The Opportunity A hyper-growth, stealth-mode AI platform backed by Tier-1 Silicon Valley venture capital and scaling past multi-millions in ARR within months of launch is expanding its executive team. Operating at the intersection of machine learning, automated risk assessment, and high-yield financial services, the company is creating a high-leverage Chief of Staff seat to sit directly alongside its founding leadership team. This is a high-velocity, high-impact mandate for an exceptional, high-agency operator. Positioned at the core of organizational strategy, cross-functional execution, and operating cadences, you will serve as the primary force multiplier to the leadership team, driving critical strategic initiatives, eliminating operational bottlenecks, and ensuring sharp execution as the business aggressively expands into multi-billion-dollar enterprise markets. Key Execution Focus Leadership Bridge & Strategic Alignment: Partner directly with founder leadership to translate core vision into executable operational roadmaps, maintaining complete alignment across Product, Operations, Go-to-Market, and Legal functions. Operating Rhythm & Accountability: Design and enforce the company’s operating system, leading executive leadership cadences, monthly business reviews, quarterly planning, and company-wide KPI/OKR tracking to maintain execution velocity. Cross-Functional Special Projects: Take immediate ownership of high-stakes, ambiguous strategic initiatives from ideation to execution, building 0-to-1 operational systems and stepping into high-priority operational gaps as the organization scales. Operational Infrastructure & Internal Communications: Own executive dashboards, internal decision logs, and strategic communications, ensuring early detection of operational friction and total follow-through across all business units. The Archetype The Foundation: 4–8 years of elite, structured experience combining a background in top-tier management consulting, investment banking, or private equity with real-world operating time inside a high-growth tech platform or working directly alongside founders. The High-Agency Operator: Exceptional narrative and written communication skills (memo-driven operating culture over slide decks), relentless attention to detail, low ego, and high ownership. Comfortable holding fast, forceful operators accountable to firm deliverables. The High-Grit Builder: Thrives in fast-paced, ambiguous environments where outcomes matter more than analysis. Demonstrates default ownership, high analytical rigor, and the capability to execute autonomously. On-site presence in New York required. Why This Seat Matters Unmatched Founder Proximity: Direct line to repeat venture-backed founders and top-tier operator-investors, sitting in the room where every major strategic, capital, and operational call gets made. Pure Strategic Leverage: Administrative, calendar, and travel tasks are 100% out of scope. Every hour is focused on operational architecture, strategic leverage, and scaling the business. Outsized Upside & Career Acceleration: Ground-floor equity and strategic ownership at a hyper-growth enterprise, serving as the ultimate launchpad into executive leadership or future founding paths.
