Scientists automate protocols with Medra’s autonomous robotic system. Backed by Lux and Menlo.

About the role

Business Operations: Own day-to-day business operations and keep the company running while it scales. Process Improvement: Dig into cross-functional pain points, find root causes, and fix the underlying systems, not just the symptoms. You'll touch finance, hiring, customer success, and ops, often in the same week.

What they're looking for

  • 1-3 years in consulting, finance, product, or business development, or you're early-career with a steep slope and a track record of shipping real work
  • You do what you say you're going to do, on time, every time. No task is beneath you and no problem is someone else's
  • You don't wait for structure. You create it. You've built a process, a tool, or a system from nothing because you saw the gap and couldn't leave it alone
  • You operate fast. You'd rather ship something 80% right today and iterate than spend a week perfecting a plan
  • Direct communicator. You take feedback without flinching and give it without hedging

As a team, we’re always looking for ways to grow and improve. We love learning new things and then sharing our new knowledge with each other.

This is a 0→1 role at the center of a company scaling fast. This is not a support role. You are the operational infrastructure the...
