## Description

About the company

Our client is a fast-growing technology company.

The role

Raydar is recruiting for this role on behalf of our client. Serve as a trusted strategic partner to the chief executive, owning high-priority initiatives that span several business lines. Help shape and launch new growth efforts, establish company-wide management routines, and work alongside senior leaders to clear obstacles. The position offers a route toward eventually running a business unit.

What you'll do

\- Take charge of critical initiatives that cross departments, finding bottlenecks and resolving unclear problems through to delivery.

\- Advise the chief executive on emerging growth opportunities, including helping get new lines of business off the ground.

\- Build and scale management routines such as performance reviews, analytics updates and investor-facing reporting.

\- Partner with business unit leaders to identify patterns, remove obstacles and speed up progress.

\- Travel roughly 10-30% of the time for company visits and important meetings with executive leadership.

## Requirements

What we're looking for

\- 6-10 years of experience combining a rigorous early-career foundation, such as top-tier consulting, banking or private equity, with operating experience at a high-growth startup.

\- A record of fast advancement and strong ownership, rather than a coordination or project management profile.

\- A self-directed working style and comfort operating with limited guidance.

\- Executive presence to work credibly with senior stakeholders and challenge them when needed.

\- Strong analytical and financial modeling skills, with the ability to work with data and reach decisions independently.

\- A hands-on AI mindset: actively builds tools, automations and workflows with AI rather than only writing prompts.

\- Interest in eventually leading a business unit or starting a new one.

\- Based in or willing to relocate to San Francisco, working on-site five days a week.

Bonus points

\- Previous founding experience, even if unsuccessful.

\- Early promotions and growing scope within a single company.

\- MBA from a top-tier program.
