Desirable

• We are looking for a very specific candidate for the Business Operations & Strategy team - a hard charging generalist that is obsessed with impact, deeply analytical, low ego, and ready to embrace the intensity required to achieve our goals
• The Business Operations & Strategy team is a tight-knit group that drives mission-critical initiatives across the breadth of Scale, supporting product, engineering, sales, marketing, and core operations by providing planning, analytical, operational, and strategic support
• As Scale continues to rapidly grow, most of the problems we face have ambiguous causes and unknown solutions - we cannot pattern match our way to winning
• The BizOps team dives deeply into Scale’s biggest challenges on a project-basis, driving clarity and outcomes by breaking down the problem in a highly structured way
• This means that every member of the BizOps team must be highly operational, ready to shift between strategic, cross-functional projects and rolling up our sleeves to run day-to-day operations; no job or task is too small
• Take on Scale’s difficult-but-ambiguous problems, breaking them down in a structured way and driving them to successful outcomes
• Dive deeply into our operations and data - you will become an expert on how Scale operates, and develop a deep understanding of the AI industry
• Build high trust relationships across the organization to partner with and influence outcomes beyond what you directly touch
• Have full ownership of your work and outcome - we support each other as a team, but you will have broad latitude to run autonomously as you get up to speed
• Partner with, influence, and support the Scale executive team as we tackle the most difficult decisions in the business
• Help incubate, seed, and scale new teams
• Design, manage, and iterate on the operational and analytical systems and processes that make Scale hum
• Eventually spin out to take on full ownership of a given role, team, or opportunity in Scale
