Quick Take
This probably isn’t the job for you. You’re a nice, normal person. You like your job. You do it well. But you don’t obsess over the details of the day-to-day running of a company. And even if, against all odds, you were that kind of oddball, surely you don’t want to do this in the frenetic environment of a startup, right? Even a well-funded startup. Right? So, thanks for reading this far–and the best of luck to you finding a job you love.
Crazy Enough?
Neils Bohr, the physicist behind much of the quantum weirdness that we grudgingly accept today, once told a graduate student, “We all agree your theory is crazy.

But, like you, we’re discontent. We want to make the product even better. We want to make it great. And so, we’re looking for a dynamic operations manager that will oversee the day-to-day running of the business and manage several facets of customer service, process development, and project management.
The Windup and the Pitch!
Does this sound like something you’d love–something you’d look forward to doing every day? We’re creating a company culture that values innovation. We need a self-starter to jump in, take the lead, and navigate the inevitable hiccups with grace. Your role would be to help shape the future of the organization by developing processes from the ground up, and creating systems to manage customer service and other key business functions.
We’re looking for someone who, amidst their myriad quirks, also…
So, if you’re–somehow–still reading this and still interested, these would be your areas of responsibility
