📋 Description

• Get deep before you build — understand the mechanics of an issue from the ground up • Turn ambiguity into a plan — structure the problem clearly, quantify the impact, identify root causes, and build a sequenced action plan • Own strategic programs end-to-end — from problem definition through execution and measurement, working across engineering, product, operations, and revenue teams • Launch and lead new teams — define the mission, hire the first people, build the processes, and develop leaders so the team eventually runs without you • Design how the work gets done — own workflow design and process engineering for your initiatives • Develop your people — set clear expectations, give real feedback, and build an environment where strong performers grow

🎯 Requirements

• 2+ Years of management experience • 7+ years of total experience in business operations, strategy, consulting, or a closely adjacent function • Demonstrated experience scoping and launching net-new teams or programs (0→1) • Comfortable working directly with data — SQL proficiency or equivalent analytical depth • Experience deploying AI tools into operational workflows (not just familiarity)

🏖️ Benefits

• Flexible PTO and sick leave • Generous paid parental leave for all new parents • 401k retirement plan • $100 monthly stipend for home internet and mobile phone expenses • High-quality medical, dental, vision, short-term/long-term disability, and basic life insurance coverage, effective on your first day of work.
