About the Role :

We are seeking an Operations Program Manager to partner with the CEO and senior leadership team, focusing on operational efficiency, process improvement, and cross-functional alignment. This role is for someone who thrives in creating clarity out of chaos, builds scalable systems, and loves driving measurable impact. The right candidate will be tech-forward and have 3-5 years working for a SaaS company.

As the Operations Lead, you'll bring both strategic thinking and hands-on execution to create frameworks, optimize workflows, and ensure smooth collaboration across teams. This is a 100% Individual Contributor role where you'll lead initiatives that touch every corner of the organization.

Responsibilities :

  • Drive Operational Excellence : Act as the CEO's strategic partner, designing and implementing scalable frameworks that eliminate inefficiencies and optimize team workflows to align with long-term goals.
  • Transform Mess into Momentum : Dive into organizational gaps, uncover inefficiencies, and build repeatable systems that create order and accelerate decision-making across the leadership team.
  • Oversee Program Management : Own the management of company-wide meetings, agenda, and follow-ups, ensuring discussions are purposeful and actionable. You'll also lead the process of hiring and managing a full-team EA to enhance support.
  • Create Scalable Frameworks : Design systems and processes that improve efficiency, foster transparency, and can be handed off to teams for long-term success before moving on to the next high-priority project.
  • Enhance Cross-Functional Collaboration : Coordinate across Product, Marketing, Sales, Engineering, and Finance teams to align initiatives with strategic priorities, ensuring seamless communication and execution.
  • Implement Data-Driven Solutions : Use automation, AI tools, and metrics to inform decisions, track progress, and ensure every operational improvement contributes to organizational goals.

Ideal Background :

  • 2 years of experience in a SaaS startup in operations, BizOps, or a similar role.
  • 5 years of experience in project / program management, management consulting, or a high-growth startup environment (seed to Series C).
  • Proven ability to navigate messy or inefficient systems and create impactful, scalable solutions.
  • Exceptional organizational skills, with a talent for creating order, managing multiple priorities, and delivering results.
  • High emotional intelligence and stakeholder management skills, fostering trust and collaboration at all levels of the organization.
  • A strategic thinker who pairs big-picture vision with meticulous execution.
  • Proficiency with automation tools, AI platforms, and other technologies that drive operational efficiency.
  • Preferred Qualifications :

  • Familiarity with project management tools and methodologies.
  • MBA or advanced degree in business, operations, or a related field is a plus.
  • Why You’ll Love This Role :

  • Make an Impact : Directly contribute to shaping and scaling the company’s operational processes and strategic initiatives.
  • Thrive in Autonomy : Bring your creativity and organizational genius to life, driving initiatives from inception to execution.
  • Learn and Grow : Work directly with the CEO and leadership team, gaining exposure to high-level strategy and operations, setting you up for future leadership opportunities.
  • If you’re highly organized, thrive in a fast-paced, cross-functional environment, and have a passion for operational excellence, we’d love to hear from you!
