Brain Co. is building the infrastructure that turns advanced AI research into real-world impact. We work at the frontier of productionizing AI for complex, high-stakes environments—particularly in government and regulated industries where manual workflows still dominate.
Our mission is to make AI systems reliable, scalable, and dependable in the real world. That means going beyond demos and models to build robust platforms that support complex workflows, human-in-the-loop processes, and production-grade reliability at scale.
We’re seeking a BizOps leader to join our growing team in San Francisco. This is a high-impact role at the intersection of strategy, operations, and execution — driving clarity, alignment, and scale across Brain Co.’s most important initiatives.
You’ll partner directly with the executive team and cross-functional leads to shape strategy, design and optimize business processes, and ensure flawless execution of company priorities. This role is ideal for someone who thrives in ambiguity, moves seamlessly between the boardroom and the trenches, and can bridge strategic vision with operational rigor.
Drive Strategic Initiatives: Identify, scope, and lead mission-critical projects that define Brain Co.’s growth trajectory across product, go-to-market, and operations.
Support Executive Decision-Making: Partner with leadership on strategic planning, fundraising support, board materials, and investor communications.
Build Scalable Systems: Design and implement frameworks for operational excellence across functions including finance, GTM, hiring, and partnerships.
Operationalize Insights: Translate complex data and analysis into actionable recommendations, ensuring initiatives deliver measurable impact.
Cross-Functional Leadership: Act as connective tissue between product, engineering, GTM, and operations — driving alignment and accountability.
Execution at Speed: Lead from the front, ensuring projects are not only designed well but also executed to a high standard on aggressive timelines.

Skills & Attributes

Drive strategy and execution for an applied AI company tackling the world’s most consequential challenges.
Work directly with a world-class leadership team and investors.
