Chief of Staff to the CEO & CTO
Hybrid (Austin, TX; Las Vegas, NV; Los Angeles, CA; Toronto, Ontario)Full-timePosted 2mo ago
About the role
Chief of Staff to increase the combined leverage of the CEO and CTO, turning high-velocity discussion into durable decisions, ownership, and execution across strategy, technology, and day-to-day operations.
Responsibilities
- Capture material decisions and convert them into a durable decision log (decision, rationale, owner, effective date, revisit conditions) and a policy/governance register
- Identify contradictory or stale decisions and force resolution before teams execute against different interpretations
- Broadcast concise decision summaries to the right operators while protecting confidentiality
- Run the operating cadence for the CEO–CTO partnership: agendas, pre-reads, decision prompts, action registers, and follow-through
- Maintain a single view of top-priority initiatives with named DRIs, milestones, dependencies, and risks
- Ensure commitments survive the meeting — confirm owners and deadlines, track completion, escalate misses
- Preflight executive analyses: verify sources, definitions, calculations, and assumptions before they reach the CEO or CTO
- Package recommendations in decision-ready form — what we believe, why, what could disprove it, confidence level, next action
- Partner with Finance, Data, Product, Engineering, and brand teams to turn ambiguous questions into testable hypotheses
- Use AI aggressively to accelerate research and execution, while independently validating AI-generated claims, code, and calculations before they inform decisions
- Own a small portfolio of top-priority initiatives end-to-end — from problem definition through implementation and handoff
- Step into ownerless but important work, build enough structure to execute, and transition it once stable
- Coordinate dependencies across technology, data, finance, growth, and operations; remove blockers and escalate tradeoffs without becoming a permanent substitute for functional ownership
- Run a risk-intake funnel for high-impact FinOps, security, data-governance, and vendor issues, with severity, owner, and deadline
- Convert spend anomalies, system limits, and recurring alerts into tracked remediation
- Surface pressure toward undocumented or risky workarounds so the accountable leader makes the tradeoff explicitly
- Give the CEO and CTO a concise view of what's off track, what changed, who owns it, and what decision (if any) is needed
Qualifications
- 7+ years in strategy and operations, a founder's/executive office, consulting, banking, finance, product operations, or technical program leadership
- Exceptional written and verbal communication — ability to compress messy context into a precise decision memo without losing nuance
- Strong business and financial fluency (P&Ls, unit economics, business cases, experimental measurement)
- Enough technical fluency to work credibly with engineering, data, AI, and security leaders, and to spot an incomplete answer
- Demonstrated ability to independently validate analyses and AI-assisted work
- Track record of driving ambiguous, cross-functional initiatives from unclear problem to measurable result
- Excellent judgment on what needs executive attention, what to delegate, and what to document
- High discretion, low ego, and the confidence to give direct, evidence-backed pushback to senior leaders
- Strong systems thinking — you build mechanisms that survive after you hand off the work
- Comfort operating at high velocity across time zones, with periodic travel for executive sessions
