Hiring: Founding Strategy & Operations Generalist Company: Sela Location: San Francisco, CA Job Posted Time: 2026-09-11 12:13:18 Employment Type: Remote About the job Experience: •4 years out of school, spent at a top consulting firm, in finance, or in an operating role at a fast-paced, venture-backed startup Required Skills: •You'll be the first strategy and operations hire at Sela. You'll report to the CEO and get pointed at whatever the hardest problem in the company is at the time. •Right now that's hiring. We're tripling the team in a year without lowering the bar, which makes recruiting the highest-leverage system we have. You'll own who we should be targeting, how we reach them, how we evaluate them quickly and fairly, how we close the ones we want. •From there you'll take on more of the business. Which parts depends on what we need and what you're drawn to — sales, product, finance, people. •Hiring Strategy. Who are the right candidates? How do we get them in the door? How do we evaluate candidates fairly and efficiently? How do we sell and close top talent? •Automation. You'll build AI tools and agents to take as much of this off humans as possible, with as many tokens as you can spend and engineering support when you need it. If you like the idea of figuring out how to get an agent to do 80% of your job so you can go solve the next problem, you'll like it here. •Whatever's next. A new revenue motion, a pricing model, a finance function. The scope of this role is set by how much you can handle. •Hungry and high-agency. You don't wait for instructions. You see what needs to happen, figure out how to do it, and make it happen. •Intellectually curious and fast to learn. You want to understand how a business actually works and you pick up new domains quickly. Compensation: •$130,000 - $175,000 / year •Flexible work environment (work from home / hybrid options) Interested candidates, please apply directly through the job posting on company's career page or try via AI auto apply on this platform.
