Responsibilities
Own the Operational Engine: Take full ownership of our internal engine. You will lead all non-growth teams (Product, Engineering, Finance, People, Operations, etc.), transforming them from support functions into a high-leverage, AI-enabled system that provides seamless leverage to our portfolio companies, profit centers, launch teams, and our growth team
Accelerate the Launch Machine: Your second mandate is to enable our Chief Growth Officer and her team to increase our company launch rate. You’ll do this by building the infrastructure—AI systems, internal tooling, and operational processes—that removes drag and amplifies their speed. Your success is measured by how effectively you help them go faster, with fewer blockers and greater precision
Maximize CEO Leverage: Your third mandate is to act as my direct force multiplier (~20% of your time). You will own high-impact special projects, serve as my proxy in key operational decisions, and leverage automation to free up my time, ensuring my focus remains on system-level strategy
