Job description

6+ months

Full-Time

Leadership sets the direction. You make sure it actually happens.

In every growing company, there’s a gap between the decisions made in the leadership room and the results that show up weeks later. Ideas get discussed, priorities get set, and then momentum quietly fades as everyone returns to their day jobs. This role exists to close that gap.

At Techdome, you’ll work directly alongside our CEO and CTO, turning strategy into structured plans, putting the right owners behind every initiative, and driving each one through to completion. Your work will span Engineering, Marketing, Business Development, and Operations, and you’ll have a clear mandate to find where AI and automation can make the whole organization faster and smarter.

What You’ll Own

• Turning conversations into action: Convert leadership discussions into clear plans with named owners, firm timelines, and defined deliverables.
• Driving initiatives to the finish line: Lead cross-functional projects to real outcomes, measured by results delivered, not status updates sent.
• Clearing the path: Spot operational bottlenecks before they slow the team down, and fix them.
• Crafting the story: Build sharp, client-ready pitch decks, proposals, and executive briefings.
• Supporting growth: Join client meetings and business development conversations, and own every follow-up so nothing slips.
• Bringing insight to decisions: Research markets, competitors, and customers, and turn findings into recommendations leadership can act on.
• Automating the repetitive: Design and roll out AI-powered or automated solutions for recurring manual work like research, reporting, and documentation.
• Taking on what comes next: Lead ad hoc strategic and cross-functional projects as new priorities emerge.

What Success Looks Like

In your first 30 days, you’ll learn how Techdome runs, build relationships across teams, and take ownership of your first leadership initiatives.

By 60 days, you’ll be running multiple cross-functional projects, preparing client and leadership materials, and delivering research that shapes decisions.

By 90 days, you’ll be the trusted execution partner to the CEO and CTO, with at least one AI or automation improvement live and saving the team real time.

Ultimately, success means this: priorities set by leadership consistently get delivered, teams stay aligned, blockers get resolved quickly, and nothing important falls through the cracks.

What You Bring

• 6+ months of experience in a Founder’s Office, Business Operations, Strategy, Business Development, or an early-stage startup.
• A track record of getting things done in unstructured environments where the path isn’t laid out for you.
• High initiative: you spot problems before you’re asked and move on them.
• Comfort with ambiguity and priorities that shift quickly.
• Strong PowerPoint and Excel/Google Sheets skills, including building models that support decisions.
• Everyday, hands-on use of AI tools to work faster and better.
• Sound judgment with confidential information and the ability to juggle many moving parts at once.

Bonus Points

• Experience in a fast-paced startup or founder’s office.
• Exposure to client-facing or business development work.
• Working knowledge of Notion, Asana, or Trello.
• Familiarity with industries like AI, SaaS, FinTech, Healthcare, E-commerce, or Enterprise Technology.
• An MBA is welcome but not required. A strong record of execution matters more to us than a degree.

Why Techdome?

• A view from the top: Work side by side with the CEO and CTO and take part in key business decisions.
• Breadth few roles offer: Gain hands-on exposure to strategy, technology, AI, business development, client relationships, and operations, all at once.
• Real autonomy: Own a wide scope with the freedom to decide how the work gets done.
• A clear path forward: Grow toward senior leadership or strategy roles as you prove your impact.
