About the Role

The Company is seeking a Founding Chief of Staff to work closely with its founder and help shape business direction. The role combines market strategy, go-to-market execution, customer development, and operations. Responsibilities include identifying promising customer segments, validating demand, and developing pricing, positioning, packaging, and return-on-investment strategies. The Chief of Staff will support enterprise customer engagements from initial discussions through pilot agreements, turn research and feedback into go-to-market plans, and contribute to recruiting, business operations, and cross-functional priorities. Candidates typically bring 2–8 years of experience in consulting, finance, investing, startup operations, sales, or a similarly demanding field. Strong analytical skills, practical execution, and the ability to turn ambiguous challenges into clear plans are essential. Excellent written and verbal communication skills, including confidence presenting to senior business stakeholders, are required. Candidates should be able to learn technical concepts quickly and work across strategy, customer-facing activities, and daily operations. Experience with B2B go-to-market strategy, pricing, market research, or early-stage ventures is desirable, as is familiarity with AI, developer tools, or technical customers.
