Job Description

You turn a vague mandate into a running program and stay calm when the plan changes on Friday. Own the projects that feed frontier AI.

A young, seed-funded San Francisco company embeds its people in engineering and life-sciences enterprises to automate their workflows. It finds where today's models fall short and sells that data to frontier AI labs. It already runs at an eight-figure revenue rate, grows very fast, and is going from six people to about fifteen this year.

They're hiring 2 strategic project leads.

What you'll own

• Programs that convert client data into datasets that AI labs buy, from scoping and data access to delivery
• Recruiting and onboarding domain experts, and planning reviewer capacity
• Acceptance rates, cost and quality, and adjusting the team based on the numbers
• Change management inside the client: approvals, adoption and keeping everyone informed
• Over time: owning lab accounts and selling, with commission on top

Must-haves

• You've run complex projects from start to finish yourself (operations, consulting or technical delivery), not only a piece of a project someone else led
• Truly customer-facing, coordinating people with very different expertise (a back-office data-ops role isn't enough)
• A strong track record: a respected organisation, a rigorous education or clear ownership of outcomes, with roles held long enough to show lasting impact
• At least 1 year of experience; calibre and ownership matter more than years
• Working from the San Francisco office, 9-9-6, and fine with plans that change week to week

Bonus points

• Operations at an AI or data company: expert networks, AI training or eval programs
• Consulting experience followed by hands-on work in data or AI operations
• First steps toward account ownership or sales

What's in it for you

• $175k–$300k base + 0.1–0.5% equity, plus commission once you sell
• A broad role in a small founding team with a real path to commercial ownership

Good to know

• Full-time, on-site in San Francisco, 9-9-6
• Visa options are limited: US citizens and green card holders, refugees or asylees, and H-1B, O-1 or TN holders can be considered, so please share your exact status
• Process: first conversation → case assignment → a day in the San Francisco office → offer

When you apply, please include

• Your CV (PDF) and your LinkedIn URL
• A loosely defined project you broke down and delivered, with the results in numbers
• Your current location, and confirmation that on-site San Francisco works for you
• Your visa or citizenship status, and if you'll need sponsorship
• Your base salary expectation, your notice period, and any other interview processes you're in
