Role
Who you are
- You are an exceptional operator who is also genuinely technical — not necessarily because of a particular degree or title, but because you know how to use technology to build and solve problems
- You have hands-on experience building with modern AI tools, LLMs, agentic systems, automation platforms, or adjacent technologies
- You can independently prototype workflows and solutions rather than relying entirely on engineering resources to turn an idea into something tangible
- You have experience working closely with a founder, CEO, or senior executive
- You have strong judgment and can quickly understand unfamiliar businesses, products, and problems, form a point of view, and act on it
- You can turn loosely defined objectives into concrete action while managing multiple high-priority workstreams
- You communicate clearly and can engage credibly with executives, engineers, investors, partners, and other senior stakeholders
- Your background could include Chief of Staff, business operations, product, engineering, AI, consulting, founding or operating a startup, or a combination of these
- We care more about the combination of technical capability, judgment, and execution than a conventional career path. Former founders and operators who have built technical products or businesses may be particularly well suited to this role
What the job involves
- We are looking for a highly capable, technically inclined operator to work directly with our Founder & Executive Chairman, Dr. Vinay Nair, on some of TIFIN’s highest-priority initiatives
- This is not a traditional Chief of Staff role. We are looking for someone who combines the judgment and range of a strong CEO Chief of Staff with the technical curiosity and hands-on ability to build with AI
- The right person will be equally comfortable working through a complex problem with the CEO, driving a cross-functional initiative, and sitting down to prototype an agentic workflow themselves
- Partner directly with the CEO
- Work closely with the CEO to translate priorities and ideas into clear plans, owners, and execution
- Own high-priority projects that span products, businesses, and functions across TIFIN
- Rapidly get up to speed on new problems, develop a point of view, and move from ambiguity to action
- Anticipate issues, dependencies, and opportunities, increasing the speed and quality with which CEO priorities move through the organization
- Build with AI
- Personally build and prototype AI-powered and agentic workflows that improve how TIFIN operates
- Identify work that can be redesigned using AI rather than simply layering AI onto existing processes
- Translate loosely defined business problems into working AI prototypes and workflows, experimenting quickly to determine what is genuinely useful
- Partner with product and engineering teams when an initial prototype or workflow should become a more scalable solution
- Own and Execute
- Take ownership of important initiatives that do not fit neatly within one existing function
- Work across product, engineering, commercial, and operations to move complex work from idea through execution
- Create structure around ambiguous problems, establish clear owners and timelines, and maintain accountability
- Do the work required to move an initiative forward — whether that means research, analysis, building a workflow, preparing a recommendation, or resolving an operational blocker
Our take
Increases in the range of apps available for investors of any experience level are resulting in wealth and asset managers facing rising demands for personalised financial experiences. Investors seek tools that use data analytics to facilitate these personalised insights, but this is difficult to provide without the right technology and data science.
TIFIN provides a fintech platform that uses data science and artificial intelligence to provide personalised investment experiences. The platform offers investment management advice and tools to asset managers, allowing them to transform their clients' businesses to be more efficient, profitable and future-proof.
With so many investment platforms on the market, TIFIN has made a smart decision by pulling together innovative tools into a wealth management platform, as opposed to starting a new investment platform itself. The company has experienced remarkable growth, forged strategic partnerships and successfully secured funding. It is now pursuing international expansion, beginning in India.
