About the role
- Chief of Staff at Ribbon driving high-impact projects and aligning teams for strategic execution. Focusing on financial rigor and operational cadence to accelerate momentum across the organization.
Responsibilities
- Be the founders' force multiplier: Drive prioritization, prep, and follow-through so decisions don't stall, turn strategy into execution.
- Own high-impact projects end-to-end: Step into critical initiatives across finance, rev-ops, customer success, partnerships, and product - push them forward and ship.
- Bring financial rigor to decision-making: Build models, evaluate ROI, pressure-test assumptions, and help the team make fast, informed calls.
- Run rapid experiments: Design and execute short-cycle tests (pricing, onboarding, GTM motions), double down on what works, and hand off cleanly.
- Drive operational cadence: Implement dashboards, OKRs, and operating rhythms that raise the bar on accountability and clarity.
- Unblock the business: Jump into live issues including customer escalations, pipeline bottlenecks, hiring gaps and move things forward without waiting for permission.
- Own executive-level communication: Create crisp updates, board-ready decks, and internal narratives that align the team and investors.

- Is a high-energy A-player: proactive, relentless, and wired to move things forward without being asked.
- Thrives in constant context-switching: Can juggle multiple priorities and still execute with precision.
- Mixes strategy with execution: Equally comfortable in board-level conversations and in the weeds (CRM, spreadsheets, tooling).
- Data-first thinker: Knows how to find signal, build dashboards, and cut through noise.
- Communicates like an owner: Clear, concise, persuasive both written and verbal.
- Has a bias for action and learning: Low ego, fast learner, and allergic to inertia.
