Job description

Ops

The best operators in startup land rarely come through a job board. They're already embedded somewhere, quietly making everything run. If that's you, and you're open to a conversation, register your interest now. We'll reach out when the right match emerges across our portfolio.

The context

Our portfolio founders are technical, ambitious, and often stretched across product, sales, and investor relations simultaneously. What they need is an operator who can build the scaffolding underneath them, finance, people, process, and systems, so they can stay in their zone. The hire is usually the first dedicated ops person in a team of 10–30.

What great looks like

  • You've run day-to-day operations at a startup, finance oversight, vendor management, compliance, HR infrastructure

  • You've built systems from scratch, not inherited them

  • You're the person founders call when something is on fire and also when they want to think through a hard decision

  • You can read a P&L and a hiring plan in the same breath

  • You are deeply unbothered by ambiguity

What makes you stand out

  • Experience as a COO, Chief of Staff, or GM at a funded tech company

  • You've navigated a fundraise from the operations side

  • Comfort working across finance, legal, people, and tooling simultaneously

  • Experience in a high-growth environment where the product, team and offering has scaled

  • Strong preference for SaaS or tech-adjacent industries

Who this is not for

If you're looking for an established playbook, a large team to delegate to, or a title that precedes outcomes, early-stage ops will frustrate you. These roles reward people who get things done before they're officially asked.
