Role Overview
We are hiring an Applied AI Strategy & Ops Associate to support and evolve our internal tooling ecosystem across Ops.
This is a hands-on individual contributor role focused on strengthening the foundation of our operational stack. You’ll work across a range of tools including support platforms, AI-driven systems, and internal automations to improve how our day-to-day operations function.
You’ll partner closely with team leadership to execute against defined priorities, refine existing systems, and introduce new tooling where needed ensuring our stack continues to scale effectively with the business.
What You’ll Do
Execute against high-priority tooling and automation initiatives across the operational stack
Build and iterate on workflows, integrations, and automations that improve day-to-day efficiency
Support and improve systems across multiple tools, including support platforms and AI-driven solutions
Translate defined problems into practical, well-scoped technical solutions

What We’re Looking For
Technical Fluency - You’re comfortable working with APIs, integrations, and automation tooling. You can build, debug, and adapt across different systems without relying on heavy oversight.
Execution Discipline - You take defined problems and drive them through to completion. You manage multiple priorities effectively and maintain a high bar for quality and reliability.
Systems Thinking - You understand how tools, workflows, and dependencies connect. You look for ways to improve how systems operate together, not just individual components.
