## Job description

## About Hanover Park

[Hanover Park](http://hanoverpark.com) builds AI systems that run the financial operations of the world’s most sophisticated investment firms. As an [AI-enabled service](https://www.emcap.com/thoughts/the-death-of-deloitte-ai-enabled-services-are-opening-a-whole-new-market) and [fund administrator](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fund_administration), we’ve become the way fund CFOs adopt AI. We've raised $31 million from [Emergence](https://www.emcap.com/) (investor in Salesforce/Zoom), [Susa](https://www.susaventures.com/) (investor in Robinhood/Flexport) and angel investor fund CFOs from [Bain Capital](https://www.baincapital.com/) ($180B), [Clearlake](https://clearlake.com/) ($100B), [CD&R](https://www.cdr.com/) ($80B), and [Hellman & Friedman](https://hf.com/) ($80B). Our mission is to be the financial infrastructure to orchestrate how the world's capital is operated, governed and allocated. Stripe for payments. Ramp for expenses. Hanover Park for investments. In the next decade, the AI systems we build will advise $100B investment firms on their largest acquisitions and eventually unlock alpha for investors.

## The role

We're ~60 people scaling to ~100 by year end. As we grow, the operational complexity of the business is growing just as quickly. We need someone whose job is to make sure our highest-priority initiatives get executed. Right now, too many cross-functional priorities don’t have a clear home. Initiatives get started and stall. Owners aren’t always clear. Follow-through is inconsistent not because the team isn’t good, but because no one’s job is to make sure things land. As Business Operations Lead, you’ll report to our Head of Strategy & Operations and work across the company to drive our highest-priority initiatives from problem to resolution. You’ll own the operating systems and cross-functional initiatives that keep a fast-growing company from losing things in the gaps. This is a high-trust, high-visibility role. You’ll work closely with leadership across the company and have broad exposure to how Hanover Park operates and scales.

## What you'll work on

- Launching special projects end to end: scoping, staffing, tracking, and closing them out
- Building capacity, utilization, and performance visibility for fund accounting and services
- Turning company priorities into owners, deadlines, and execution plans
- Running follow-through on cross-functional initiatives across product, recruiting, finance, and ops
- Resolving operational loose ends before they escalate, and knowing when to pull in the right functional or company leaders
- Owning launch readiness and outstanding-item tracking across the business
- Owning the company financial model and using it to drive planning and decision-making
- Building and maintaining the internal operating system: dashboards, trackers, and live priority views
- Creating accountability loops across cross-functional initiatives and functional owners

## What we're looking for

The ideal background is someone who has operated in a high-intensity, analytical environment (investment banking, private equity, consulting, strategic finance, business operations, or a Chief of Staff role at a high-growth company) and wants to own outcomes rather than advise from the sidelines. Need:

- Ability to context-switch across finance, ops, product, and people without losing the thread on any of them
- Strong financial modeling skills: you can build and own a model, not just read one
- High ownership: if something is at risk of falling through the cracks, you catch it before it does
- Comfort operating with incomplete information and tight timelines
- Instinct for when to escalate and when to just handle it

Nice to have:

- Familiarity with private markets, fund administration, or financial services
- Experience building internal operating infrastructure from scratch
- Prior exposure to a Series A or B company scaling through a growth inflection

This isn't the right fit if

- You want a well-defined job description that doesn't change week to week
- You need explicit direction to know what the highest priority is, or need every problem fully scoped before you can start solving it
- You're more comfortable analyzing problems than owning the resolution
- You want a 12-month ramp before carrying real responsibility

## Why now

The next 12 months determine whether Hanover Park scales cleanly or under strain. The person in this seat will work across nearly every part of the business and have unusual visibility into how a fast-growing company scales. What you build here becomes the operating infrastructure for a company that will be managing more capital than most banks. If that sounds like your kind of problem, let's talk.

## About Hanover Park

## Company Overview
- **One-liner**: Hanover Park is an AI-native fund administration platform that modernizes the operational backbone of private markets by replacing legacy systems and manual spreadsheets with AI-powered automation.
- **Entity Type**: Private (Series A)
- **Headquarters**: New York, United States
- **Founded**: 2024
- **Founders**: Chris Hladczuk (CEO) and Nick Puljic (CTO)

## Core Business
- **Primary industry**: Fund administration, financial technology (FinTech), AI-native services for private equity and venture capital firms.
- **Target customers**: B2B – private equity firms, venture capital funds, and other investment managers that need institutional-grade fund accounting, portfolio intelligence, and LP reporting.
- **Mission**: To build the financial infrastructure for investments, delivering real-time accuracy and speed through AI-native software.

## Products & Services
- **AI-Native Fund Administration**: Same-day capital calls, AI-reconciled cash, unified general ledgers, and automated bill processing with intercompany journal entries.
- **Portfolio Intelligence**: AI analyzes deal documents and cap tables to provide real-time portfolio metrics and investment updates.
- **LP Experience**: Investors get instant answers via an AI-powered portal, with automated responses and document extraction from email.
- **KPI Reconciliation**: AI reconciles values across forms, board decks, and email updates, reducing manual data collection.
- **AI Agents**: Delegate tasks to AI via email as if it were a teammate, handling actions like contact updates, template responses, and schedule of investment updates.

## Market Standing
- **Valuation/Market Cap**: Not disclosed (private company).
- **Key Metric**: $15B+ in assets under administration (as of mid-2026); total funding of $27M (Series A, March 2026).
- **Notable Investors/Partners**: Backed by Emergence Capital (first investor in Salesforce/Zoom), Lux Capital, Susa Ventures (investor in Robinhood/Flexport), and angel investors including CFOs from top private equity firms.
- **Growth Signals**: Grew from $1B to $15B in assets under administration in one year; scaling rapidly with 34–42 employees; actively hiring across engineering, product, operations, and sales.

## Competitive Advantages
- **AI-native architecture**: Built from the ground up with AI at the core, not bolted on, enabling faster processing, fewer errors, and automated workflows that legacy providers cannot match.
- **Vertical focus**: Solely dedicated to fund administration for private markets, an industry managing over $100 trillion in assets that has been underserved by technology.
- **Same-day accuracy**: AI prepares transactions and reconciliations while expert accountants review, delivering turnaround times impossible with manual processes.
- **Network effects**: As more funds use the platform, AI models improve, creating a data moat.

## Strategic Focus
- **Scaling the platform**: Expanding assets under administration and onboarding more PE/VC firms.
- **Deepening AI capabilities**: Continuing to develop AI agents that handle increasingly complex fund operations.
- **Building the team**: Hiring top talent in engineering, product, and fund services to execute on the vision of category-defining vertical AI.

## Why Work Here
- **High-impact role**: Join a Series A company backed by top-tier investors (Emergence, Lux, Susa) with a clear path to transforming a massive industry.
- **Culture**: Described as “maniacal urgency” with a focus on impact, speed, and high standards; team sits at intersection of finance and technology.
- **Work environment**: On-site in New York City (office-based, pet-friendly, free daily meals, commuter benefits).
- **Perks**: Competitive compensation, equity grants, 401(k), health/dental/vision insurance, FSA, relocation assistance, documented internal promotion policy.
- **Engineering culture**: AI-first product development; engineers work directly on AI agents, portfolio intelligence, and core platform infrastructure.
