About the Role

The Company is seeking a Chief of Staff to the CEO, who will serve as the CEO's delegate and operating partner, with a focus on increasing decision velocity, execution quality, and organizational clarity. The successful candidate will be responsible for running the CEO operating system, driving cross-functional initiatives, and owning critical executive communication and fundraising execution. This role is pivotal in a fast-scaling AI x Biology company, and the Chief of Staff will be expected to take on a large share of the CEO's load and turn it into tangible results. Key responsibilities include building and managing the CEO's operating system, representing the CEO with judgment, and driving outcomes with clear guardrails. The ideal candidate will be a proven top performer, with off-the-charts excellence, high judgment, and high ownership, and will be expected to have a strong executive presence, elite written communication skills, and a bias to action with high standards. Applicants for the Chief of Staff position at the company should be outliers with a track record of exceptional performance. The role requires a structured thinker, with the ability to turn ambiguity into a plan and a tight operating rhythm, and a candidate with a strong bias to action and high standards. While not mandatory, deep tech, AI, or biotech experience, as well as a background in a high-growth startup environment, are considered advantageous. The Chief of Staff will be expected to have a high level of discretion and integrity, and to be travel-ready, as the role may involve weekly travel. The company values candidates who are comfortable with a high level of responsibility and are capable of working with boards, investors, and senior executives in high-velocity settings. The position offers a direct partnership with the CEO, significant exposure to leadership-level operations, and a clear path for expansion into larger leadership roles as the company grows.
