About The Role

We’re looking for a Customer Operations Lead to own the customer-facing work that cannot or should not be automated with AI. You’ll own the systems around successful customer activation and engagement as the implementation counterpart to our GTM Engineers.

Responsibilities

• Own the human-in-the-loop layer of HUD’s operations across our customers - data suppliers (vendors) and frontier labs and enterprises (buyers)
• Jump into customer conversations when a human touch is needed to build trust, clarify context, or move things forward
• Resolve contract, onboarding, and platform blockers by working with the right internal owners
• Turn recurring customer issues, feedback, and learnings into better processes, platform, and communications
• Build lightweight systems that streamline workflows or makes resolving problems easier the next time they occur

You may be a good fit if you have:

• Experience in customer operations, business operations, consulting, or similar roles
• Familiar with CRM tools, external vendor management and AI-native CRM campaigns, email tracking
• Demonstrated judgement in customer-facing situations - you know when to be helpful, when to push back, and when to escape
• Comfort managing many small but important threads at once
• High attention to detail and strong follow-through
• Used AI tools to improve their productivity

We prioritize technical aptitude and learning potential over years of experience. Motivated candidates are encouraged to apply even if they don't meet all criteria.

Strong Candidates May Also Have

• Experience working with technical customers
• Familiarity with RL, e.g., you know what environments, evals, and benchmarks are
• Thrive in unstructured problem spaces

Team & Company Details

• Our team: Our team includes 4 International Olympiad medalists (IOI, ILO, IPhO), serial AI startup founders, and researchers with publications at ICLR, NeurIPS, etc.
• Company stage: We have 8 figures in funding and are scaling profitably and quickly to meet very strong demand.

Logistics

• Employment : Full-time.
• Location : We have offices in San Francisco or Singapore but are open to remote candidates who can work hours that 70-80% overlap with either San Francisco or Singapore time zones.
• Visa Sponsorship : We provide support for relocation and visas for strong full-time candidates to the US or Singapore.
• Timeline : Applications are rolling. The process is 2 technical interviews and a 2-3 day work trial.

What we offer

• Competitive compensation
• 100% covered top-of-the-line medical, dental, and vision (US and Singapore employees)
• Lunch and dinner for in-office employees
• Company-wide holiday break (Christmas Eve to New Year’s Day) on top of PTO and paid holidays
• Other perks including an Equinox membership, 401k, and commuter benefits (US employees) and a health/wellness stipend (Singapore employees)
• Unlimited* access to tokens for ChatGPT, Claude Code, Cursor, etc. *By unlimited, we mean no one on our token usage leaderboard has ever hit a limit. So we have no idea what the limit is.
• Two top-floor offices in San Francisco’s Union Square and Singapore’s Raffles Place
• Annual travel budget to visit either office

Compensation
