About the role

Responsibilities

  • Act as a trusted advisor to the CEO and exec team — elevate insights, prep leadership for key decisions, and when needed serve as a stand-in
  • Proactively resolve problems before they reach the CEO — see around corners and close gaps
  • Coordinate the CEO's network to accelerate go-to-market including in international markets like MENA
  • Own decisions that span Product, Eng, Finance, and GTM — surface risks and disagreements early, drive alignment
  • Develop integrated views of product economics, market dynamics, and business performance
  • Use AI, automation, and agent workflows to scale impact: analysis synthesis, scenario modeling, status aggregation, operational monitoring
  • Support the CEO's most important cross-functional initiatives — competitive positioning, pricing strategy, product economics, strategic planning — from scoping through decision

Requirements

  • 7+ years in strategy, operations, or an analytical hybrid role at a high-growth tech company, with real time working alongside Product and Engineering
  • Build structure where none exists and drive decisions without formal authority
  • Credible across domains: Eng trusts your technical judgment, Finance and GTM trust your business rigor
  • Strong quantitative chops — economic models, data interrogation, signal vs. noise
  • Clear, direct communicator — executive-ready recommendations, not decks full of caveats
  • Thrives independently in ambiguity — high-impact IC, not a management track
  • Familiarity with technology ecosystems or business networks in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA), or experience supporting international market expansion and strategic partnerships
