Chief of Staff, Founder's Office

$150k - $250k

Wintermeyer Ventures

About the Role

Work directly with the founders of an early-stage AI/ML company to turn important priorities into measurable outcomes. You will connect strategy and execution across engineering, customer deployments, sales, and operations, helping the organization scale effectively.

What You'll Do
  • Drive cross-functional initiatives across hiring, customer delivery, go-to-market, and internal operations, surfacing risks and resolving dependencies.
  • Own strategic projects from framing problems and evaluating options through execution and measurement.
  • Build the company's operating cadence with clear priorities, accountable owners, useful metrics, and consistent follow-through.
  • Partner with the founders to move high-impact initiatives from idea to completion.
  • Use AI tools to automate repetitive work and build practical systems that support product and customer outcomes.
  • Take ownership of emerging problems, develop repeatable approaches, and hand them off as the team grows.
What We're Looking For
  • 1 to 7 years of experience in strategy and operations, business operations, or a chief of staff role at a high-growth technology company, or experience at a leading consulting, investment banking, or private equity or venture capital firm.
  • Experience balancing strategic projects with hands-on operational work, ideally in an early-stage startup.
  • Experience using AI tools to automate repetitive workflows.
  • A bachelor's degree from a highly selective US university.
Compensation & Benefits

Base salary range: $150,000 to $250,000 annually. Visa sponsorship is available.

Location

On-site in San Francisco, California, United States.
