Qualifications 3-5 years of experience in management consulting, strategy, business operations, venture capital, or a similar high-growth environment. Ownership Mindset: Proactive self-starter with the ability to thrive in a fast‑paced, ambiguous startup environment; you don't wait for a playbook, you write it. Problem Solving: A combination of analytical and conceptual thinking; you bring a hypothesis-driven approach to tackle complex business challenges across ops, finance, and strategy. Analytics: Proficiency in financial modeling and business analysis Operator Mentality: You enjoy the tactical execution of running day‑to‑day operations and are comfortable being hands‑on, while maintaining the ability to think critically about the "big picture." Exceptional Coordination: Strong organizational skills with the ability to handle multiple streams of work and prioritize effectively. Robotics/AI Interest: While you don’t need to be an engineer, you should be excited about the mission of building general‑purpose manipulation and foundation models.
