About The Role
We’re looking for a Chief of Staff to join the Founder’s Office and work side-by-side with the CEO. This role is a force multiplier for the founder, helping drive strategic priorities, building leverage across the organization, and ensuring the company executes with focus and speed. You’ll be at the center of decision-making, gaining a front-row seat to the challenges and opportunities of scaling a high-growth startup.
This is an ideal role for someone who wants to learn what it takes to build a category-defining company and is excited to wear many hats - operator, strategist, communicator, and problem-solver.
