Founders Associate

What You'll Do

• Own Claude at Rillet – become our internal Claude expert. Build and deploy AI automations and workflows using Claude, starting with the CEO and Chief of Staff, and rolling them out across the organization. Be the go-to-person for Claude-related questions, best practices, and capabilities.
• Track progress on key initiatives on behalf of the CEO – proactively flagging risks, identifying roadblocks early, and ensuring the right people are unblocked and moving forward.
• Prepare internal and external communications on behalf of the founders, including investor updates and board materials.
• Apply analytical horsepower across all functions to generate insights that drive decisions – whether that's modeling sales efficiency in GTM, analyzing retention trends in Customer Experience, building headcount plans in HR, or stress-testing unit economics in Finance.
• Run operational processes across internal ops functions.
• Project-manage initiatives that span multiple stakeholders and require strong follow-through.
• Serve as a connective layer across the organization — making sure decisions get made and nothing falls through the cracks.

Who We're Looking For

• 1–3 years of experience in management consulting, investment banking, or a BizOps / strategy role at a high-growth startup.
• Proficient with Claude, you have used it extensively and know how to get the most out of it.
• A track record of delivering in fast-moving, ambiguous environments with minimal hand-holding.
• Executional by nature.
• Strong analytical skills: comfortable building models, interpreting data, and turning insights into action.
• Exceptional written and verbal communication: you can draft a crisp investor update and a clear internal Slack message with equal ease.
• Highly organized with sharp attention to detail, even when juggling multiple workstreams.
• Low ego, high ownership.
• Willingness to travel a few times per year for team offsites and company events.
