Founding Chief of Staff / BizOps

**Deepline** Founding Chief of Staff / BizOps; $150K–$190K base + meaningful equity; New York City (On-site)

**About Company** Deepline is the operating system for GTM execution — a "Context API" that lets AI agents enrich, validate, deduplicate, and sequence across 40+ go-to-market data providers with a single call, replacing dozens of point tools and integrations. It's Cloud Code-native and API-first: customers don't log into a UI, they work through coding agents, and Deepline surfaces the right proprietary data point at the right time so the agent can solve the problem.

Backed by $3.3M pre-seed from Lerer Hippeau, K5 Global, Exceptional Capital, Sabrina Hahn, and Rohan Shah. Growth is ~100% month-over-month, with enterprise logos like Modal and Composio finding them inbound and spending quickly — thousands of power users across several Tier 1 companies, and strong PMF before a formal enterprise motion exists.

Small, senior founding team (Jai Toor, Saf, Chirag Toprani) out of Uber, Lyft, Capchase, Datafold and OM1, with pedigree from MIT, Waterloo, Berkeley, Princeton, and UCSD. Based in NYC, in-person.

**About the Role** A founding Chief of Staff / BizOps hire to work directly alongside the founders on the highest-leverage problems — strategy, operations, special projects, and the connective tissue that keeps a fast-moving early-stage company aligned. High-priority alongside Growth. A build-and-own role: ambiguous problems taken end to end, with the judgment to figure out what matters and the operational rigor to execute.

**Responsibilities** - Own ambiguous, high-leverage projects end to end on behalf of the founders. - Bring structure and operational rigor to strategy, planning, and execution. - Run cross-functional initiatives and keep a fast-moving team aligned and accountable. - Turn founder priorities into plans, metrics, and follow-through. - Build the internal operating cadence (reporting, metrics, hiring support) as the team scales.

**Required Skills** A. One of two archetypes: ex-MBB (or top-tier) consultant with some startup experience; OR ex-big-tech operator (e.g. Uber, DoorDash, Airbnb) who then did early-stage startup work. B. High agency — owns ambiguous problems end to end and just figures it out. C. Strong operational rigor, structured thinking, and clear written communication. D. Thrives in a fast-moving, intense, in-person early-stage environment.

**Bonus Skills** - Prior founding / Chief-of-Staff / BizOps experience at an early-stage startup. - Technical curiosity — comfortable around a technical product and technical founders.

**Logistical Info** - Location: NYC, fully in-person (5 days/week). Same intense culture as the wider team. - Compensation: $150K–$190K base + meaningful equity. - Number of openings: 1 (high priority, alongside Growth). - Visa: likely as per the other roles — H-1B transfer / TN / E-3 OK, no fresh sponsorship (confirm).

**Ideal Background** - Archetype 1 — ex-MBB consultant (ideally) with some startup experience. - Archetype 2 — ex-big-tech operator (Uber, DoorDash, Airbnb, etc.) who then did early-stage startup work. - Above all: high agency — owns ambiguous projects end to end.

**Green Flags** - Structured problem-solver who also executes; founder-level ownership. - Thrives in ambiguity; high intensity; in-person NYC.

**Red Flags** - Pure strategy/consulting with no execution or startup grit. - Needs a defined mandate and structure to operate.

**Interview Process** 1. Intro conversation with Jai (decision-maker & POC). 2. Screen with Chirag (Saf non-blocking). 3. On-site / case study in NYC. 4. Verbal offer, 1:1; fast feedback (~24h).
