Job Description
We're hiring someone technical to work inside the operations team and build the systems it runs on.
You'll sit inside the operations team — hiring finance legal people vendors — and turn the parts that run on memory spreadsheets and copy-paste into systems that run themselves.
This isn't a support role for ops.
It's an engineering role pointed at ops.
You'd spend your first weeks sitting with the people doing the work: recruiters finance people ops.
After that you'd start replacing the parts that shouldn't need a person and keep going.
WHAT YOU'LL BUILD - The connective tissue — Slack Ashby Mercury Notion Attio Linear Google Workspace wired together so data moves without a human moving it. - Internal tools — dashboards portals forms small apps.
Whatever's the shortest path between a recurring problem and it being gone. - Hiring infrastructure — pipeline automation scorecard flows agency tracking status visible without anyone asking. - Finance systems — invoice and contractor flows reconciliation spend visibility month-end that doesn't eat a week. - Employee lifecycle — onboarding and offboarding that provision brief and revoke without a checklist someone has to remember. - Instrumentation — if a founder asks how long something takes or what it costs the answer is a link not an investigation.
HOW WE WORK.
Nobody hands you a backlog.
You find something slow decide it's worth fixing build it and tell us after.
Rough and shipped this week beats polished next month provided you own it once it's live and notice yourself when it breaks.
WHAT WE NEED. - You write code and can debug it.
We use AI tools heavily and expect you to but they don't replace knowing what the code does. - 3+ years building software in some form: engineering internal tools technical founder or ops work that was mostly automation. - You think about what happens at three times the volume and what happens when the person who knows how it works leaves. - Genuine interest in other people's jobs.
Much of this role is asking someone why they do it that way. - Startup pace or a convincing reason you'd be fine with it. - Warsaw on-site.
Useful not required: internal tooling at a startup LLM APIs or agent frameworks in production exposure to finance or recruiting.
HOW WE WORK Small team high trust low process.
Decisions are made by owners not committees.
You will ship your first week.
