About this role

We are looking for a Chief of Staff with 2+ years of senior operator experience at a high-growth startup to serve as the CEO's right hand and help scale the company from 22 to 35+ people this quarter. This is not an assistant role — you'll have full context and autonomy to implement organizational structures, drive alignment, and eventually grow into a VP of Ops position.

What will you be doing?

Act as a true extension of the CEO — full visibility into decisions, strategy, and company direction

Implement organizational processes, structures, and cadences to manage rapid scaling (9 → 22 → 35 people)

Track commitments, ensure alignment on goals, and drive cross-functional accountability

Own the operating rhythm: planning cycles, communication, and follow-through across teams

Solve unowned problems end-to-end and build systems to prevent them from recurring

Key Requirements

Senior operator experience at a startup (15+ people) — not an assistant-level role, but someone who has owned outcomes end-to-end

Background in enterprise B2B SaaS (strongly preferred) or B2B SaaS at minimum

Knows how to run a company from the inside — can bring best practices and lead, not just organize

Must be based in San Francisco and work in-office 4 days per week

No job-hopping pattern (switching every 1-2 years without strong explanation is a red flag)

What happens next

Skip the application pile. I get you in front of the people who decide.

Confirm the fit

A few questions to make sure this role is the right shape for you. Two minutes.

I pitch you to the company

I write the intro, send it to the founder, and handle the back-and-forth.

A meeting lands on your calendar

When the company wants to meet, I get the call on your calendar. You just show up.

Know someone who'd be great for this?
