Operations Lead

Artificial Intelligence Underwriting Company

AIUC Operational Role

We're looking for someone who can be the operational backbone of AIUC and own how the business runs from first principles – insourcing the core operations we're currently stitching together, building the systems and financial controls a fast-scaling company needs, and removing friction and bottlenecks wherever you find it and gear us for growth.

In practice this means, you will:

  • Insource and own core operations — bring the operational infrastructure, systems and processes that keep AIUC running in-house (vendors, contractors, legal, HR, etc)

  • Centralize spend and financial controls — consolidate vendors and spend, put controls in place, and create visibility into where money goes.

  • Support recruiting and people ops — help the team hire and onboard well as we grow headcount across functions.

  • Run strategic finance and reporting — own board reporting, financial planning, and the numbers leadership runs the company on.

  • Drive efficiency across the org — identify where the company is losing time or money and design the fix; turn unstructured problems into structured, durable systems.

What We're Looking For

Someone who wants to deliver real impact and ownership. We think you'll be successful if you have:

  • 6–10 years of experience , ideally having owned operations at a high-growth startup and seen scaling pains firsthand — or a top-tier generalist (consulting, finance, operating) we trust to learn ops fast.

  • A killer smart generalist : analytical, detail-obsessed, obsessive about efficiency, with a relentless work ethic.

  • Reasons from first principles and is just as comfortable going from a blank page to a concrete plan as executing it.

  • Moves with urgency and communicates with structure .

  • Finds satisfaction in enabling others and takes pride in operations that run seamlessly.

Compensation & Perks
  • Competitive annual salary

  • Equity (significant part of total compensation)

  • Health, dental and vision insurance for you and your dependents

  • Visa sponsorship and relocation stipend to bring you to SF, if needed

  • Daily meals

Our Values

Strong Back - High standards, keep our promises, work hard

Open Heart - Say the scary thing, create connection, make room for emotions

Fast Feet - Experiment, cut scope, take delight in pace

Eyes Up - 'Feel the AGI' across our strategy, teams and day-to-day work
