You Have/Are:
  • Background in consulting, finance, startups, or other operationally intense environments.

  • Strong analytical and communication abilities; proven track record of managing complex projects.

  • Comfortable working directly with high-profile clients.

  • Excited by "gritty" process optimization and large-scale execution.

Misc:
  • We operate six days per week.

  • Compensation: Competitive salary, meaningful equity vested over four years, $10K relocation bonus (for moving to the Bay Area), and an additional $5k housing bonus (if you move within 0.5 miles of our office), Health, Dental, Vision insurance, 401(k) with company match

  • Terac culture: Between company hackathons, weekly presentations on the latest advancements, and an AI-first mindset, you'll be working with one of the most innovative teams on the planet.

  • Growth opportunities: You're joining Terac at one of the earliest stages and will have an opportunity to shape and grow with the company as a founding member.
