What the job involves
- Roofstock is looking for a Business Operations Manager to help bridge the gap between strategy, finance, product, and operations
- This role sits at the center of the company’s most complex and cross-functional work and is responsible for translating strategic and financial plans into clear operational targets, driving execution, and creating visibility into performance and outcomes
- The Business Operations team at Roofstock functions as a group of generalist problem-solvers who partner closely with Finance, Product, Engineering, and Operations
- The team plays a critical role in supporting Roofstock’s software development lifecycle, financial planning and accountability, market performance management, and operational improvement agenda
- This role is ideal for someone who is comfortable operating in ambiguity, enjoys owning problems end to end, and has a bias toward action and measurable results
- Translate company-level and functional financial plans into actionable operational targets and success metrics
- Support annual and quarterly planning processes by connecting strategy, budgets, and execution plans
- Build business cases, analyses, and recommendations to support leadership decision-making
- Lead and manage complex, cross-functional initiatives from discovery through execution and measurement
- Partner with Product and Engineering on initiative discovery, rollout planning, and post-launch impact analysis
- Support prioritization decisions by balancing strategic goals, operational capacity, and financial outcomes
- Develop, track, and report KPIs to monitor performance against plan and surface risks or opportunities early
- Create visibility into plan-to-actual performance and identify root causes when results deviate from expectations
- Partner with Finance and FP&A to ensure financial plans are grounded in operational realities
- Establish clear operating cadences, documentation, and accountability mechanisms for key initiatives
- Improve existing processes or build new ones to drive consistency, scalability, and operational efficiency
- Bring structure, rigor, and clarity to areas where ownership or visibility is currently fragmented
Our take
Everyone knows that buying a house is a massive ordeal, but what if it didn’t have to be? That’s Rootstock’s vision, with its platform designed to make buying and selling single-family investment properties as easy as it can be for everyone.
The main selling point of its platform is the dual approach of human real estate expertise with AI software. The company's tech unifies over 1 billion data points so that users can get a full picture before making important decisions surrounding underwriting, valuation or the building of their portfolio.
Roofstock soared to a valuation of $1.9 billion in 2022, but hit choppier waters in the following years due to the general economic downturn. After cuts to its workforce and a realignment of its capital, it appears to have weathered this storm. In 2024, the company merged with its contemporary Mynd, creating a verifiable powerhouse in the sector.
