By handling administrative calls like noise complaints, lost dogs, and parking inquiries, AVA eliminates hold times and lets call-takers focus their energy on actual emergencies.\nCORA supports call-takers on the calls that matter most. CORA is an on-screen assistant that delivers real-time SOP checklists, smart reminders, and contextual guidance as an emergency call unfolds, so dispatchers stay calm, consistent, and confident when every second counts. When AVA detects an emergency mid-call, it transfers the caller to a telecommunicator and passes along the caller details, location, incident type, and key statements directly into CORA. The call-taker never starts from scratch.\nThe problem we're solving is serious. The average emergency communications center is 30% understaffed nationwide. Staffing shortages drive burnout and attrition, which makes the shortage worse. Meanwhile, 60-80% of the calls coming in aren't even emergencies at all. Aurelian addresses both sides of that equation: AVA reduces unnecessary call volume, and CORA makes every emergency call more manageable for the people handling it.\nAurelian is live in centers across the country, answering thousands of non-emergency calls every day, and is backed by New Enterprise Associates and Y Combinator. Aurelian is growing rapidly; we are hiring people who want to help scale this work and make a real difference in public safety infrastructure for communities across the country.\nWhy Join Us\nThis is a rare seat, and the first role of its kind within the company: working directly with the CEO/founding team on the decisions that set Aurelian's future direction. We move fast, and as we grow those decisions are getting bigger and more frequent. We're looking for someone to take them on at the highest level - what we build, what we cut, what \"good\" looks like, and why. This is built for someone with exceptional judgment who wants to be at the center of how the company thinks and gets things done.\nDay to day, that means getting close to customers, pressure-testing direction with data and first principles, and turning the hardest open questions into calls the team can execute on.\nWhat You’ll Be Doing\nPair sharp judgment with real operational horsepower - you turn decisions into outcomes and don't let things stall.\n\nTake on the company's hardest, highest-stakes decisions end-to-end - framing the question, gathering the evidence, making the call, and standing behind the tradeoffs.\n\nAct as the CEO's thought partner / trusted advisor on the calls that matter most, and earn the trust to make more of them over time.\n\nTurn messy, ambiguous problems into clear direction the team can move on.\n\nGet close to customers and the market, and turn what you learn into sharper decisions.\n\nBring rigor: use data, first-principles reasoning, and clear written argument to drive decisions rather than opinion or consensus.\n\nMove fast and own outcomes - you measure yourself by results, not activity.\n\nWho We’re Looking For\nFounders / ex-founders - you’ve made high-stakes calls with incomplete information and lived with the consequences.\n\nTop-tier strategy consulting or a “decisions all day” seat - you’ve been trained to break down ambiguous problems fast and defend a recommendation.\n\nTrading / quant / other high-intensity judgment fields - you make rapid, high-quality decisions under uncertainty and are sharp with data.\n\nExceptional product people - PMs known for judgment and taste, not just shipping.\n\nAcross all of these, you almost certainly:\nThink from first principles and are unusually good at reasoning under uncertainty.\n\nHave extremely high ownership and a strong bias toward action.\n\nCommunicate with precision - you can influence smart, opinionated people.\n\nAre energized by ambiguity and want to be close to the most important decisions in the company.\n\nTo learn more about what it's like to work at Aurelian, visit our About Us page and follow us on LinkedIn to stay up to date!\nWe encourage you to apply even if you don’t meet every qualification listed above. We believe exceptional people come from many different backgrounds, and we’d rather connect with you than miss the opportunity.\nCome do the best work of your life and join us in shaping the future of critical technology that truly matters.\nFor Full-Time roles, Aurelian offers a variety of benefits, including:\nComprehensive Medical, Dental, & Vision Insurance\n\n401(k)\n\nUnlimited PTO\n\nCompany-wide offsites \n\nEquipment stipend \n\nRelocation assistance\n\nDaily delivered lunches (on us)\n\nOffice in Seattle \n\nStart-up Equity","description_format":"text","description_chars":4917,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["Equity","Relocation assistance","Unlimited PTO","Vision insurance"],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":true,"industries":["Artificial Intelligence","Law Enforcement","Conversational AI","Speech & Audio AI"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-09-06T00:30:40Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":16,"band":"cold","label":"Long shot","p_open":1,"p_active":0.437,"p_room":0.36,"age_days":150,"expected_fill_days":77,"reasons":["conf:3","win:tail","crowd:"],"computed_at":"2026-11-06T05:58:05Z"},"pay":{"stated_usd_annual":250000,"is_top_pay":true},"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/aurelian-strategy","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/aurelian-strategy.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-06T19:57:23Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":3727,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-07T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":7265},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=7265"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Faurelian-strategy"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Faurelian-strategy"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Faurelian-strategy"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/aurelian-strategy\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Faurelian-strategy"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":399826}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"aurelian.com","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":399826},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
