Build Alongside the CEO During a Defining Stage of Growth

We're partnering with a founder who is looking for a true thought partner and operator. Someone who wants a front-row seat to scaling a category-defining business and the opportunity to influence how the company evolves over the next several years.

You'll work directly with the CEO on the highest-leverage initiatives in the company: fundraising, strategic finance, partnerships, M&A, operating cadence, executive decision-making, and special projects that don't neatly fit inside an org chart.

One week you may be preparing for a board meeting.

The next, evaluating an acquisition target.

The next, redesigning how the company operates using AI.

If you're energized by ownership, complexity, and building at scale, this role offers an opportunity to accelerate your career while helping shape the future of a high-growth company.

Why This Opportunity Exists

The foundation is built. Customers are buying. The market opportunity is substantial.

Now is the time to scale intelligently.

The founder is looking for someone who can connect strategy to execution, identify opportunities before others see them, and help build the systems, processes, and operating rhythms required to support the next phase of growth.

This is a rare opportunity to work alongside a founder during one of the most important chapters of company building.

What You'll Own

  • Partner directly with the CEO on the company's most important decisions and initiatives
  • Help shape strategy and drive execution across the business
  • Lead strategic planning, operating reviews, KPI management and metrics
  • Own business operations, reporting, and organizational alignment
  • Support fundraising initiatives, investor communications, and board preparation
  • Evaluate and execute partnership, corporate development, and acquisition opportunities
  • Build systems that improve decision-making, accountability, and execution
  • Design AI-enabled workflows that increase organizational leverage and efficiency
  • Serve as connective tissue across leadership, ensuring priorities become outcomes

Who Thrives Here

You might currently be:

  • An Associate or Engagement Manager at Goldman, McKinsey or BCG.
  • An associate at a private equity firm looking to move from analysis to execution
  • An investment banker from Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, J.P. Morgan, or a similar institution who wants to help build instead of advise
  • A strategy, operations, business operations, or corporate development leader inside a high-growth SaaS company
  • A founder or former founder looking for your next challenge

More important than your title is how you think.

We're looking for someone who:

  • Has exceptional business judgment and executive presence
  • Is highly analytical, financially fluent, and comfortable making decisions with imperfect information
  • Communicates clearly and confidently with executives, investors, customers, and operators
  • Is a systems thinker who sees patterns, root causes, and scalable solutions rather than isolated problems
  • Is AI fluent and actively uses modern AI tools to improve workflows, accelerate decision-making, and increase productivity
  • Understands how to apply AI strategically to create competitive advantages and operational efficiencies
  • Uses AI as a force multiplier across research, analysis, planning, communication, and execution
  • Has a strong ownership mentality and acts like a builder rather than an employee

What Makes This Special

  • Direct partnership with a founder who values trust, ownership, and creating opportunities for exceptional talent
  • Exposure to nearly every major function inside a scaling company
  • Significant influence on company strategy and direction
  • A seat at the table for fundraising, board discussions, strategic planning, and corporate development
  • Opportunity to help scale a business with strong market traction and ambitious growth plans
  • Build expertise across finance, operations, strategy, AI, partnerships, and executive leadership
  • Opportunity to grow into future leadership roles such as CFO, COO, Head of Strategy, Corporate Development, Product, or General Management
