Chief of Staff to CEO

Colorwave Inc

Replit Agentic Software Creation Platform

Replit is the agentic software creation platform that enables anyone to build applications using natural language. With millions of users worldwide, Replit is democratizing software development by removing traditional barriers to application creation.

About the Role

This is a rare opportunity to work directly with Replit's CEO and executive team as the company scales through one of the most consequential shifts in software development. You'll act as a force multiplier for the CEO — owning the hardest cross-functional problems, driving the highest-stakes decisions, and ensuring leadership operates with clarity and speed.

This is a high-leverage IC role, not a team-building role. You use AI, automation, and sharp judgment to scale yourself — not headcount. You're the person the CEO turns to when something is complex, cross-functional, and needs a single owner.

You Will
  • Act as a trusted advisor to the CEO and exec team — elevate insights, prep leadership for key decisions, and when needed serve as a stand-in

  • Proactively resolve problems before they reach the CEO — you see around corners and close gaps

  • Coordinate the CEO's network to accelerate go-to-market including in international markets like MENA where there is existing regional expertise and existing strong relationships

  • DRI decisions that span Product, Eng, Finance, and GTM — surface risks and disagreements early, drive alignment where org structure creates friction

  • Develop integrated views of product economics, market dynamics, and business performance that no single function owns

  • Use AI, automation, and agent workflows to scale your impact: analysis synthesis, scenario modeling, status aggregation, operational monitoring

  • Support the CEO's most important cross-functional initiatives — competitive positioning, pricing strategy, product economics, strategic planning — from scoping through decision

What This Role Is Not

Growth experimentation, quarterly reporting, analytics, revenue or financial reporting, or dashboards. Those belong to Data, RevOps, Growth Marketing, Strategic Finance, etc. This is also not the start of a team — it's a single high-leverage IC designed to scale through AI, not hiring.

What We Look For
  • 7+ years in strategy, operations, or an analytical hybrid role at a high-growth tech company, with real time working alongside Product and Engineering

  • You build structure where none exists and drive decisions without formal authority

  • Credible across domains: Eng trusts your technical judgment, Finance and GTM trust your business rigor

  • Strong quantitative chops — economic models, data interrogation, signal vs. noise

  • Clear, direct communicator — executive-ready recommendations, not decks full of caveats

  • Thrives independently in ambiguity — high-impact IC, not a management track

  • Familiarity with technology ecosystems or business networks in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA), or experience supporting international market expansion and strategic partnerships.

Nice to Haves
  • Hands-on experience with AI tools, agents, or automation to increase analytical and operational velocity — we'd love to hear specifics

  • Background in developer tools, infrastructure, or AI/ML product companies

  • Track record influencing executive decisions at $50M+ ARR companies

  • Values clarity and momentum over process for process's sake

How We'll Know It's Working
  • Cross-functional decisions happen faster and better — with clear, attributable impact

  • Stakeholders seek you out — your involvement signals quality, not overhead

  • Leadership has integrated visibility into business health and acts on it

This is a full-time role that can be held from our Foster City, CA office. The role has an in-office requirement of Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.

Full-Time Employee Benefits Include:

  • Competitive Salary & Equity

  • 401(k) Program with a 4% match (US Only)

  • Health, Dental, Vision and Life Insurance

  • Short Term and Long Term Disability

  • Paid Parental, Medical, Caregiver Leave

  • Flexible Time Off (FTO) + Holidays

  • Commuter Benefits (In-Office Only)

  • Monthly Wellness Stipend

  • Autonomous Work Environment

  • In Office Set-Up Reimbursement (In-Office Only)

  • Quarterly Team Gatherings

  • In Office Amenities (In-Office Only)

To achieve our mission of making programming more accessible around the world, we need our team to be representative of the world. We welcome your unique perspective and experiences in shaping this product. We encourage people from all kinds of backgrounds to apply, including and especially candidates from underrepresented and non-traditional backgrounds.
