Chief of Staff, R&D

Sapien is moving fast and wants a Chief of Staff to make sure it moves deliberately rather than just quickly. You'll sit with the founders and own the operational layer: strategic planning, investor relations, hiring, internal comms, and the go-to-market systems behind revenue. It suits a generalist who gravitates toward the work nobody has quite categorised yet.

Engine is the travel and spend platform behind 38,000 businesses and 1.8 million travellers, and other travel and AI companies quietly run on its rails. This is a senior business operations role covering the cross-functional work that keeps a fast-growing company coherent. It suits an operator who likes being the connective tissue between teams that would otherwise drift apart.

Axle is rebuilding the back office of commercial vehicle operations for technicians, fleet managers and service leaders, backed by Base10. This role operationalises the commercial engine, joining up go-to-market with the customer operations that keep fleets actually running. It suits a generalist drawn to unglamorous industries where the software genuinely changes someone's day.

aiEDU is a nonprofit building AI literacy for students most likely to be affected by automation. This is a high-trust role next to the CEO, covering strategy, special projects and whatever else needs an owner in a growing organisation. It suits a generalist who wants the chief of staff scope but in mission work rather than a startup.
