Position Overview:

As a Business Operations Strategist, you will help build the systems that allow strategy to turn into execution. You will be in close coordination with policy strategists and growth strategists, ensuring the company can pursue critical opportunities with speed, focus, and unity. You will own important day-to-day operational work across the business, while also designing and implementing the processes, planning motions, and infrastructure that let the company scale without reducing speed or impact.

They're building a team of modern-day Argonauts: exceptional engineers, mathematicians, designers, and strategists committed to solving the hardest, highest-stakes problems in the world. They move fast, but do so with discipline and logic. They think from first principles and execute with autonomy and accountability.

You may be a good fit if you are insatiably curious in the face of discomfort, are a coalition builder who sees progress as a positive-sum game, and believe that the alchemy of interdisciplinary expertise can solve seemingly impossible problems.

Key Responsibilities:

• Own and improve core internal processes across areas like finance, people, and infrastructure, implementing new tools and workflows where needed to increase operating velocity.
• Partner with the company's founders to identify operational bottlenecks, design solutions from first principles, and execute on company strategy.
• Create systems for clear visibility and accountability that provide ground truth and reduce organizational drag.
• Work closely with team members across strategy, engineering, design, and research to ensure the company successfully scales to meet customer and mission demand.

Qualifications:

• Experience in business operations within a high-growth startup or similarly high-ownership organization.
• A track record of strong judgement, extreme attention to detail, and impactful outcomes.
• Experience building operational systems from scratch across one or more domains such as recruiting, finance, go-to-market, people, or infrastructure.
• Exceptional written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to turn unstructured information into clear analysis or executable plans.
• Comfort operating with high accountability in an ambiguous, fast-moving environment.
• Eligibility for a TS/SCI security clearance (U.S. citizenship required.)

What they offer:

• Base salary: $130k – $180k
• Significant equity grant, commensurate with the contribution expected from this role.
• Annual wellness stipend to invest in fitness, nutrition, and sleep to help operate at peak performance.
• Comprehensive health, dental, and vision insurance.
• Generous paid time off.
• Weekly meals and other on-site amenities at HQ.
