Strategic Growth Operator for AI Scaleups

Inventure; San Francisco (CA); On-site; USD 150,000 - 230,000; Full time

Job summary

Inventure is seeking a sharp, high-ownership operator to sit at the center of a fast-scaling AI company. You’ll work directly with the founders on strategic initiatives, building scalable operations and owning GTM components from conversations to pricing and positioning.

You will contribute to financial planning, forecasting, and unit economics, while translating requirements into deliverables and maintaining a high-quality bar across cross-functional teams.

Qualifications

• 1–6 years of experience in top-tier consulting (MBB), investment banking, private equity, or a high-ownership operating/strategy role at a startup.
• A track record of driving outcomes, not just supporting them — owning a metric, a project, or a relationship end-to-end.
• Exceptionally structured, data-driven thinker with sharp attention to detail.
• High-agency bias for action — you act without waiting to be tasked, and you'd rather do too much than too little.
• Strong communicator who builds trust quickly with founders, executives, and customers.
• Thrives in ambiguity and fast-changing environments; comfortable with a flat org and minimal structure.
• Genuine curiosity about and active use of modern AI tools

Responsibilities

• Work directly with the CEO/founders on strategic initiatives and high-priority problems.
• Build and formalize operations as the company scales — process design, documentation, workflows, and systems that don't exist yet.
• Own pieces of go-to-market: customer conversations, outbound, pricing, and positioning.
• Contribute to financial modeling, forecasting, and evaluating project or unit economics.
• Manage customer or partner relationships, translating requirements into deliverables and holding a high-quality bar.
• Context-switch across product, engineering, GTM, and ops — bringing structure and clarity wherever it's missing.
• Turn one-off wins into repeatable, scalable processes.
