About the role

Gridsight is entering a high-leverage phase of U.S. growth. We are looking for a Chief of Staff to work directly with our Co-Founder/CEO and Co-Founder/CCO across the commercial priorities that matter most to the business.

What they're looking for

  • Own a small number of the company’s most important commercial initiatives at any time, from initial question to measurable outcome
  • Work across market strategy, enterprise sales, strategic accounts, partnerships, pricing, product marketing, customer expansion and whatever becomes highest leverage as the business evolves
  • Structure problems from first principles, form hypotheses, find the evidence, recommend a direction and execute
  • Step into important work without an obvious owner, solve it and build the team or process to own it once it becomes repeatable
  • Partner with the Co-Founders to understand U.S. customers and the market deeply, then translate that insight into clear choices about where and how we focus
  • Advance our most important accounts, partnerships and commercial opportunities—from research and strategy through narrative, negotiation and follow-through

This is not an administrative or coordination role. It is a hands-on company-building role for someone who can take an ambiguous, high-stakes problem, find the shortest path to an answer and drive it through to a measurable outcome. The role can be based in San Francisco or Austin. Its primary focus will be the U.S. market, with scope to support global priorities when they are highest leverage.
