About the role
Chief of Staff to the CEO at an AI-driven voice and customer experience platform, acting as the CEO’s operator, thought partner, and organizational connective tissue to drive strategic and operational excellence.
Responsibilities
- Build and lead the daily operations of the executive office — the processes, rhythms, and infrastructure that let the CEO operate with the highest leverage
- Act as an extension of the CEO with internal and external stakeholders: assess all incoming inquiries, determine priority and proper course of action, and route or handle accordingly
- Serve as the primary point of contact for the CEO’s direct reports; work in close partnership with the EA to ensure the CEO’s calendar is tightly aligned with company priorities
- Stand in for the CEO in selected meetings, challenge ideas, offer perspective, and drive follow-through on action items
- Manage the CEO’s external brand and reputation, including how they show up with investors, customers, and the broader ecosystem
- Build and run the cadence for leadership meetings, board meetings, and leadership offsites - including structuring and helping deliver company-wide communications
- Drive quarterly planning cycles, OKRs, leadership reviews, and major business updates
- Own the company operating dashboard: define the metrics, instrument them, track them weekly, and flag what’s slipping before anyone has to ask
- Design meetings so they’re decisive, not just informative - sharper agendas, cleaner decisions, ruthless follow-through
- Lead strategic initiatives end-to-end that span Eng, GTM, and Ops - especially work that doesn’t neatly fit within the org chart
- Proactively track high-priority initiatives, surface blockers and dependencies early, and follow up with owners when goals aren’t being met - with actionable recommendations
- Promote team integration, cross-functional communication, and collaboration across the organization
- Own board cadence: deck production, narrative, data room, and all prep that makes every board interaction count
- Support fundraising - modeling, materials, diligence coordination
- Build and maintain a process to track and nurture key relationships across investors, customers, and strategic partners
- Synthesize business performance, risks, and open decisions into crisp communications for external audiences
- Serve as a genuine thought partner to the CEO: challenge assumptions, offer a different perspective, and help think through high-impact decisions with analysis, options, and clear recommendations
- Live in the future - maintain focus on long-term planning and strategic priorities even as the day-to-day demands attention
Qualifications
- 3–7 years of demonstrated slope in BizOps, strategy, or operator roles at high-velocity companies - frontier AI labs, top-tier startups, or the consulting/banking-to-operator path
- AI-native. You’ve shipped or operated close to LLM products and understand eval and inference economics well enough to be dangerous
- Exceptional writer and thinker
- Superb judgment with confidential information, competing priorities, and executive-level relationships
- Proven track record leading complex, multi-stakeholder initiatives from ambiguous start to clean finish
- High floor under pressure
- Low ego, high ownership - you don’t need credit, you need things to get done
