## The Role

As a Business Operations Associate, you'll play a key role in building and scaling Partiful's operations. You'll act as a connector and force multiplier across every team in the company - identifying inefficiencies, standing up solutions or building the systems that fix them, and finding ways to make everyone faster. This is a role for someone who sees AI as a first instinct, not a last resort; no two weeks will look the same.

In this role you will:

- Be a core part of an innovative, AI-native team that serves as the backbone of the company and the swiss-army-knife of any problem that arises
- Personally execute on high-priority projects across the business
- Own vendor relationships end-to-end - sourcing, diligencing, negotiating, and implementing
- Drive cost reduction across the business, identifying and actioning on opportunities in collaboration with Product, Design and Data Science
- Support ticketing operations, helping build and scale the systems and processes that power Partiful's new ticketing business
- Relentlessly identify painpoints, and streamline, automate and scale processes to make every team across the business better and more efficient, with a strong bias towards building & deploying AI wherever possible
- Prototype solutions & build internal tools end-to-end using vibe coding

You're a good fit if you:

- Have 2-4 years of experience in business operations or a similar function, with a minimum of 1 year in a high-growth startup
- Have minimum 2 years of "field work" — e.g., at a physical services marketplace (delivery, rideshare), forward deployed engineering, onsite consulting, etc.
- Have experience performing self-service analytics, including SQL, python and/or dashboarding capabilities
- Are AI-native, with a bias towards creating agents and relying on AI wherever possible to streamline workflows
- Are able to inductively reason about metrics and strategy based on the facts you learn on the ground
- Are comfortable jumping into any problem to fix it, no matter how small
- Have a bachelors degree

What we offer:

- 401(k) with up to 6% matching
- Comprehensive health, dental, and vision insurance for you and all your dependents (FSAs and HSA plans available)
- Free OneMedical membership, telehealth, and virtual mental health services
- Commuter benefits & contributions towards ClassPass and Citibike memberships
- Unlimited vacation (minimum 3 weeks required)
- Quarterly stipend to plan your own party and dogfood the product
- Semi-annual travel benefit & semiannual team off-sites
- Get invited to exclusive parties 🎉

In your application, please include a note on what's got you excited about Partiful! The compensation range for this role is $120,000-$160,000 depending on years of experience. We're an equal-opportunity employer and strongly encourage applicants from traditionally underrepresented backgrounds to apply. We're proud to be a diverse team, and actively work to bring new perspectives to the table.
