## About the role

We’re hiring a Marketplace Operations Manager to join us in person in Hudson Yards, NY. We’re at seed-stage and are a team of 6. You will immediately own the core process underlying our business: match, schedule, moderate, and process calls. You learn the process by doing it.

## What they're looking for

- 2-5 years of working experience doing high-ownership operational work where you personally produced transactions (a match, a call, a booked meeting, etc)
- High ownership: you take problems from discovery to measurable impact
- High agency: few people, unclear processes. You find a way through
- You work in the weeds first, then write the playbook, then automate, then iterate
- You leverage AI for speed while maintaining rigorous understanding
- You are based in NYC or willing to relocate—we work 55-65 hours a week
