Strategy and Operations Lead

As the Strategy and Operations Lead, you will supercharge the team by working at the center of the business to drive projects across business development, product strategy, and internal operations. The role is for a high-functioning generalist who is comfortable with ambiguity, thrives on learning, and has a strong bias for action, a strategic generalist who wants to help build a foundational fintech company from the ground up. You won't just be executing a pre-written plan; you'll be a strategic partner, helping to build the playbook as we go. While you will begin as a generalist working at the core of the business, this position is designed to evolve as the company scales and as your strengths become clear. For the dedicated generalist, we envision this role evolving into a Chief of Staff.
