Qualifications

  • 5 years in business operations, program management, operations strategy, consulting, or similar roles in fast-paced environments.
  • Proven track record driving cross-functional projects from concept → execution → launch.
  • Strong project management fundamentals (scoping, planning, prioritization, risk mgmt, stakeholder alignment).
  • Comfortable creating basic BI reporting: KPIs, trends, dashboards, operational metrics, and performance tracking.
  • Excellent communication skills—able to simplify complexity and drive decisions quickly High ownership mindset: you don’t wait for perfect clarity, you create it.
  • Strong judgment and ability to balance speed vs. quality in a startup context.

Bonus Points (Nice to Have)

  • Experience supporting Operations and/or Service teams directly
  • Familiarity with Insurance industry is a big plus
  • Familiarity with billing workflows, customer experience ops, or internal tooling launches
  • Experience with BI tools (Looker, Tableau, Power BI) or modern data stacks

  • Operator mindset: focused on outcomes, not just deliverables
