Job Description

Summary:

The Business Operations manager will work in the company's office space adjacent to Santana Row, in a team of 6 people, some of whom are fully on-site; others are 2-3 days WFH per week. But this role is primarily on-site with occasional WFH days as needed.

The responsibilities combine leadership in some areas and support in others. The right candidate will gradually take on additional responsibilities in a function of his/her interest e.g. "Marketing", "Finance", or "New Product" and, over time gain seniority in (or lead) that functional department of the company.

Immediate Responsibilities:

• Manage company's information architecture (document libraries, templates, policies, style guides, etc.)

• Public communications support (publication through various channels, including website and social media)
• Manage company's productivity and project management systems (Slack, SharePoint, SmartSheet, etc)
• Manage office space and equipment

• Coordinate with company's third-party accounting, tax-prep, and banking teams

• Helpful but not required: Proficiency in Rippling payroll management

Intangibles:

•   Ambition:  We want people who insist on an opportunity to grow and who aren’t afraid to pursue their goals. We want this job to get you there.
• Intellectual honesty: We want people who can say “no” to things they believe are unfeasible, unethical, or just plain wrong. This also means you’re honest about things you don’t know and are open to a change of opinion.
• Independence:  We’re a startup company, and we are building as much structure as possible to position ourselves for success. We want people who aren’t afraid of the gaps – people who can work with incomplete information and who will devise and share solutions to those gaps.
• Kindness:  We are a happy, supportive place to work. We want people who are direct but who treat each other with respect and care at all times.

What We Offer:

• "Gold" level healthcare coverage with vision and dental
• Unlimited vacation
