Business Operations Lead

About Us

We’re building an AI-native platform to help teams hire exceptional talent — faster, more accurately, and with significantly less manual work.

In the age of AI, human ingenuity is the ultimate scarce resource. Recruiting is a zero-sum game: you either compete — or you lose. Our product helps companies win by turning sourcing, evaluation, and hiring workflows into a modern, scalable system.

We’re a venture-backed, high-growth SaaS company with strong traction across high-performing teams — from early-stage startups to large enterprises — and we’re growing quickly.

The Opportunity

We're hiring a Business Operations Lead to work directly with the CEO and leadership team at a breakout, high-growth AI company transforming how recruiting is done.

This isn't a traditional BizOps role. As one of the first operations hires, you'll operate as a force multiplier across go-to-market, product, and operations — owning ambiguous, high-impact projects that directly influence company trajectory. You'll also play a key role in building internal AI tooling and standing up the systems and workflows that scale the business.

This role is ideal for someone who wants outsized ownership and visibility, tackling the hardest cross-functional problems alongside the CEO and leadership team.

Location: San Francisco, CA (in-person)

What You'll Do

* Tackle and drive high-priority, cross-functional projects across Sales, Product, and GTM, from problem definition through execution

* Partner with the CEO and leadership team to inform strategy, set priorities, and drive key business decisions

* Build internal AI tooling to make existing business processes more efficient

* Develop dashboards, KPIs, and reporting to provide visibility into company performance (pipeline, growth, retention, etc.)

* Identify bottlenecks and opportunities across the business, and lead initiatives to improve efficiency and outcomes

* Stand up new functions, workflows, and systems from scratch as the company grows

* Continuously raise the bar on operational excellence and business outcomes

Who You Are

You're a high-performing generalist who combines structured thinking with the ability to thrive in ambiguity and own problems end-to-end.

* Highly analytical with strong problem-solving skills and sharp business judgment

* High-agency and self-directed, with the ability to operate in fast-paced, zero-to-one environments

* Experience working cross-functionally with GTM, product, or operations teams

* Proficient with spreadsheets, analytics tools, and systems (CRM experience a plus)

* Move quickly and communicate clearly

Requirements

* 3+ years of experience in Business Operations, Strategy, Consulting, or a similar generalist role

* Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with a structured approach to ambiguous problems

* Experience working cross-functionally across GTM, product, or operations teams

* Proficiency with spreadsheets, analytics tools, and business systems

* Strong written and verbal communication skills

* Willingness to work in-office 5 days per week in San Francisco

* Desire to work hard (more than regular hours) for a high-impact, rewarding role

Nice to Have

* Experience in B2B SaaS, recruiting tech, or AI

* Experience with AI tooling or have built your own tools

* Experience as an early BizOps, Strategy, or first operations hire at a startup

If you're excited to shape the operating backbone of a category-defining AI company and work at the intersection of strategy, operations, and technology, we'd love to connect.
