Technical Chief of Staff

About the Role A fast-moving, Y Combinator–backed AI-native CRM startup in Stockholm is hiring a Technical Chief of Staff to work directly alongside the founding team. This is a high-impact, on-site role designed for someone who thrives in an early-growth environment, brings strong technical judgment, and is energized by cross-functional execution at speed. This role is an exceptional launchpad for future founders — you'll have direct exposure to product strategy, go-to-market execution, and operational decision-making from day one. The company is building an AI-native productivity platform for sales and customer-facing teams, automating the messy parts of CRM so teams can focus entirely on their customers. What You'll Do Partner directly with the founders across product, go-to-market, and operations as a trusted strategic and executional counterpart. Coordinate cross-functional initiatives, aligning priorities and driving execution across teams. Translate high-level strategic goals into concrete plans and track delivery against tight deadlines. Support founder decision-making by providing technical context, project-level insights, and clear recommendations. Own high-impact projects end-to-end — identifying what moves the needle and making it happen. Operate effectively in a fast-paced, high-pressure environment, adapting fluidly as priorities evolve. What We're Looking For Required: Strong technical background with solid CS fundamentals — computer science training or equivalent hands‑on experience. Demonstrated ability to coordinate cross-functional initiatives and work closely with executive stakeholders. Strong product mindset with the ability to contribute meaningfully to product strategy and decisions. Excellent written and verbal communication skills; able to articulate strategy clearly to diverse audiences. High ownership mentality — comfortable driving initiatives forward through ambiguity with minimal direction. Prior startup experience or meaningful exposure to fast‑paced, entrepreneurial environments.
