We’ve built the gold standard for agent security & reliability, AIUC-1 , with 100+ CISOs from the Fortune 1000 .

The role You will be the backbone of AIUC and offload the founders with systems, processes, relationships, and financial controls. The right person for this role finds genuine satisfaction in enabling others and takes pride in setting up smooth processes and operations that few people notice. In practice this means, you will: Own financial operations: budgeting, expenses, payroll, and financial/ investor reporting Run HR and people operations: onboarding, offboarding, contracts, and HR systems Manage vendor relationships, contracts, legal ops, and office management Identify where processes are broken or missing and fix them before they become problems Over time, expand into business operations, financial reporting, etc What we're looking for Someone who wants to deliver real impact and ownership. We think you’ll be successful if you have: 2–3 years of experience in IB/ finance/ consulting — smart and detail-obsessed, moves with urgency, and communicates with structure Clear, direct communication and self-starter mentality — you turn complex operational problem into a clear actionable next steps and bring people along with you in the process Low ego, with no task being beneath you. You’re obsessed with large and small problems, and thrive to find solutions to pain points. You thrive seeing the company win and the team doing their life's work You curiously think about how to leverage AI in doing so. Comfortable in ambiguity: you can context switch between strategic financial reporting for the Board, as much as figuring out why the HVAC isn't working and managing a new office move, delivering the same quality across all projects Compensation & perks Annual salary as above Equity is a significant part of total compensation, in addition to salary Generous health, dental and vision insurance for you and your dependents Visa sponsorship and relocation stipend to bring you to SF, if possible A team dedicated to doing our lives’ work.
