Chief of Staff to the CTO

Remote · USA Full-time New today

• The Chief of Staff partners with the CTO to drive velocity, quality, and strategic clarity across Product and Engineering

  • This role is the CTO’s force multiplier on technical execution and product strategy — owning the operating system of the Product org, keeping high-priority programs on track, and translating complex technical and organizational challenges into clear decisions and accountable plans
  • Technical Program Management: Own the execution of the CTO’s highest-priority cross-functional programs from kickoff through delivery. Identify scope, milestones, dependencies, and risks
  • Run the structured program cadence — status reviews, escalation paths, and decision logs — that keeps engineering teams unblocked and leadership informed without adding bureaucratic drag
  • Product, and Engineering Operating Cadence: Build and steward the rhythm of the Product org. Own the planning process, quarterly roadmap processes, and organizational OKR process, align Product and Engineering on priorities, and create a culture of accountability without micromanagement
  • Cross-Functional Coordination: Serve as the connective tissue between Identify where handoffs break down, own the resolution, and build the durable processes that prevent the same failures from recurring
  • Engineering Operations and Metrics: Define and instrument the leading indicators of Product health: delivery predictability, cycle time, incident rates, technical debt burn-down, and team capacity
  • Build the dashboards and review cadences that give the CTO and engineering leadership a clear, real-time view of where the org is healthy and where it needs intervention
  • Strategic Projects for the CTO: Run the highest-priority ad hoc initiatives end to end, leadership offsites, and the one-off unlocks that do not fit neatly anywhere else in the org
  • Complex customer onboarding initiatives
  • International expansion
  • Customer relationship management
  • Represent the CTO in internal and external meetings when required
  • What Success Looks Like:
  • Product development programs land on time and on scope, with fewer surprises and faster escalations when things go sideways
  • The CTO spends more time on the highest-leverage decisions and less time on coordination overhead
  • Product and Engineering operate with a shared, well-instrumented cadence that scales as the team grows
  • Cross-functional relationships between Engineering, Product Management, Design, Technical Support and GTM are tighter and more productive
