About the Role

The Company is seeking a Vice President of Operations for Software and Product, a pivotal role that bridges the gap between vision and execution. The successful candidate will be the operational counterpart to the founder, responsible for instilling and maintaining the operating cadence, and building the systems necessary for the business to scale. This role demands a rare combination of marketing and technology expertise, with a focus on product management, operational excellence, and growth. The VP will be tasked with running the company on a chosen operating system, documenting and improving core processes, and owning the product roadmap to ensure a seamless transition from strategy to execution. A strong background in UI and UX, as well as experience in standing up marketing and go-to-market motions, is essential. Applicants for the VP of Operations role at the company should have a career that blends marketing and technology, with a proven track record of operational excellence and product management across multiple products. The ideal candidate will have hands-on experience with operating systems like EOS or OKRs, and a strong fluency with AI as a daily working tool. The role requires a leader with the judgment to prioritize across competing roadmaps and the ability to build and scale a team as the company grows. A background in design or hands-on design experience is a plus, as is a history of building, scaling, and exiting a software company. The role is dynamic, with the potential to start part-time and grow into a full-time leadership position, and is suited to a candidate who can work closely with the founder to prove the model and build the role around the value it creates.
