## About the role

You'll sit in the Founder's Office and act as force-multiplier to the CEO and leadership team. This is not a "coordination" role—this is an execution role. You'll take ambiguous, cross-functional problems (GTM, product ops, compliance ops, customer delivery, internal cadence) and drive them to crisp plans, clear owners, and shipped outcomes.

## What they're looking for

- High-agency operator: you proactively diagnose problems and drive solutions end-to-end
- Structured thinker: you write clearly, make crisp plans, and turn ambiguity into concrete next steps
- Low ego, high standards: you do what it takes, and you care about quality
- Fast learner: you can ramp quickly in complex, regulated domains
- Trustworthy: you handle sensitive information with discretion
- Comfortable with intensity: early-stage pace, shifting priorities, and high expectations
