We partner across executive leadership while representing the company externally with investors, frontier AI labs, enterprise customers, board members, strategic partners, and industry leaders.This team exists to create leverage for the CEO where the company's most important external decisions are made.The RoleThis is not a traditional Chief of Staff role. Rather than running internal operations, you will become the CEO's external force multiplier. You'll be in the room, at the table, on the plane, and in the follow-up thread for the most important external conversations the company has—with investors, frontier AI labs, Fortune 500 executives, strategic partners, journalists, and board members—and ensure those high-stakes conversations translate into impactful outcomes.Often, successful candidates view this opportunity as an intense tour of duty. You will see and influence more consequential decisions in this role than most people experience in a decade.For the right person, this tour can become a pathway to executive leadership at Turing—or a launchpad toward becoming a founder yourself.Why This Role MattersOver the next 12 months, Turing will navigate one of the most consequential periods in its growth.

These relationships span researchers, human data and operations leaders, executives across frontier AI labs and enterprise customers, and the investor community.

Bring recommendations, not questions, and consistently deliver complete staff work.What You Will Not OwnOwn internal company operating cadenceManage executive calendars, travel, or administrative supportLead finance strategy or financial modelingOwn GTM account executionManage internal program management functionsWho You AreAn investor and a dealmaker.

You can distill a complex business into a narrative that investors remember, partners repeat, and executives can confidently take into the room.Organized to the point of obsession. Nothing you own gets dropped. Ever. You keep the CEO organized as a byproduct of keeping yourself organized.A magnetic connector. Dinners, conferences, board meetings, customer visits, demo days, and travel energize you. You are comfortable with the most senior people in the room and the EQ to put anyone at ease. With warm grounded confidence, you turn conversations into relationships. People seek you out, remember you, and take your call.AI-Fluent by design. You are fluent enough in the AI market to hold your own with lab leadership. RL environments, evals, benchmarks, what the labs are actually buying and why. You will be tested on this.Discreet by default. You will know things almost no one else knows. That information never moves.Minimum QualificationsBachelor's degree from a top-tier university with a strong record of academic excellence.2+ years at a top-tier Silicon Valley venture firm—Associate or Senior Associate.Exceptional written communication skills with experience producing investment memos, board materials, executive communications, or strategic presentations.Demonstrated ability to manage multiple high-priority workstreams with exceptional attention to detail and follow-through.Strong executive presence with the ability to build trust across senior stakeholders.Ability and willingness to travel frequently for domestic and international to AI hubs and conferences.Preferred QualificationsBackground that combines venture capital with prior experience in management consulting or investment banking.2–5 years at a top-tier Silicon Valley venture firm—Associate or Senior Associate.Existing relationships within the Silicon Valley venture, growth equity, or frontier AI ecosystem.Experience supporting fundraising, capital formation, M&A, or strategic partnerships.Experience working directly with CEOs or executive leadership teams.Familiarity with enterprise software, AI infrastructure, or frontier AI markets.Experience preparing executives for board meetings, investor meetings, or strategic negotiations.Before You ApplyThis role operates at the pace of the CEO. Capital markets, frontier AI labs, and strategic partners do not work standard business hours. Investor conversations may happen over a weekend. Critical negotiations may require immediate follow-up across multiple time zones.Extraordinary outcomes require extraordinary commitment, and we are transparent about those expectations.
