  • WUNDERTALENT
  • Redwood City, CA

Job Description

We’re partnering with a VC-backed SaaS startup (currently at seed stage) that’s solving meaningful challenges in the engineering and product space. The company is growing quickly and looking for an Operations Manager to help build the internal infrastructure that supports that growth.

If you thrive in fast-paced environments, love building from scratch, and have hands-on experience across finance, recruiting, systems, and business operations, this could be your next big step.

The Role

This is a high impact, high ownership role working directly with the CEO. You’ll be the central force behind the company’s operational backbone, driving strategic initiatives while executing day-to-day processes across multiple business functions.

You will:

  • Own the end-to-end recruiting process (sourcing, job posts, candidate pipelines, managing external recruiters, onboarding, and training)
  • Build and maintain internal systems, documentation, and cross-team processes
  • Handle financial operations (budgets, vendor management, general business finance)
  • Set and track KPIs/OKRs for key business functions
  • Drive operational efficiency across GTM, product, and leadership teams
  • Collaborate closely with all departments, especially the CEO and GTM leads
  • Roll up your sleeves and execute — this is not just a strategic role, it’s hands-on

Requirements

We’re looking for someone who’s operated in early-stage, high-growth startup environments and thrives in ambiguity.

You should have:

  • 5+ years experience in operations roles, ideally in seed-stage or early Series A startups
  • Proven experience in recruiting, HR processes, and onboarding
  • Comfort with financial workflows and business budgeting
  • Strong ability to build internal systems and processes from scratch
  • Clear communication, high attention to detail, and excellent prioritization
  • Willingness to work a 50+ hour week (this is a high-output, high-responsibility role)
  • Ambition to grow into a COO-level or specialized leadership role

What You’ll Get

  • Join a rocketship startup at a pivotal inflection point
  • Work directly with the CEO and leadership team
  • Ownership from day one – your work will directly shape the company
  • Potential for long-term career growth and leadership
  • Hybrid working model (3 days a week in the office)
