About this role

OpsThe 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 contextOur 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 likeYou'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 outExperience 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 forIf 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.
