About the role

• Build and lead the ops team. Hire, develop, and manage ops managers and a contractor bench of 20+. Set the bar, build the cadence, and create a team where people own outcomes instead of tasks. • Lead 0-to-1 market launches. Take new states and counties from regulatory ambiguity to live operations, building the playbooks, workflows, and systems that make the next launch faster than the last.

  • You are low-ego and high-accountability. Your work, not your volume, builds your reputation
  • You're in Austin or willing to relocate. We're in-person 4 days a week

Abode is an AI-powered services business, so the scope is wider than a conventional ops seat. The person who owns the operation also owns the property tax product it powers. You will not inherit a machine and maintain it. You will build it, and you will build the team that runs it.
