Chief of Staff - SF-based AI Startup - $200k

$200k

Startup Resources

I'm recruiting on behalf of a client — a fast-scaling AI startup in San Francisco that's raised $35M, serves 700+ enterprise customers, and is growing from 80 to 200+ people. They need a Chief of Staff. Not a gatekeeper. Not an EA with a fancy title. A genuine operator who sits next to the founders, owns the hardest problems, and gets things done without being told twice. ⚠️ Before you read on — a heads up: This role is 60-70 hours a week, 5-6 days in office. The founders work at an intense pace and expect the same from whoever is beside them. If that's not for you, no hard feelings — this post isn't for you. But if you came up through consulting or banking, know what it means to grind, and have been quietly bored since — keep reading. What you'll own 3-6 month strategic projects from kickoff to completion — hiring processes, key partnerships, operational design Finding and fixing problems before the founders even see them Building the structure and documentation that lets a company scale without breaking Being a genuine thought partner on culture, hiring, and growth decisions What they need 4-7 years in consulting, banking, bizops, or a Chief of Staff role Real startup experience — you've been hands-on, not just advisory San Francisco based (or ready to relocate) A doer who leads with execution, not decks This is a confidential search — company details shared after an initial conversation. DM me if you're interested or tag someone who should see this.
