Whether you’re an intern with incredible instincts or a senior builder of operating models, this role flexes with the person — as long as you bring clarity, structure, and velocity.

What We’re Looking For

Here’s the type of knowledge and experience that helps you thrive in this role:
 
Systems Design & Operational Architecture
• Experience mapping and redesigning workflows, rituals, or operating cadences.

• Comfort with dashboards, KPI reporting, and decision support tooling (e.g. Looker, Google Sheets, Notion tables).
• Awareness of operating with feedback loops and data-informed iteration.
 
Tech-enabled & AI-first Thinking
• Interest in how AI (especially LLMs and agents) can transform operations.
• Ability to prototype, test, or integrate AI tools into workflows (e.g. GPT, Zapier, Notion AI, etc.).
• Awareness of automation layers (e.g. Airtable, Make, internal bots) and when to use them.
