Operations

San Francisco

Summary

We are looking for a driven, dependable, highly adaptable team member to join our Ops team. The ideal candidate would be excited about jumping in to help with existing operations from day one, and thoughtful about creating new systems to help us scale. We are looking for someone to dig into the details and create a rhythm of business (including tooling, finance, investor relations, and vendor management). 

You can jump seamlessly from task to task (no task is too small), but can also build with the bigger picture in mind, and be a reliable triage to support high level leadership decision making. You are excited by touching many things, growing as an expert, and growing in true ownership over things in the operations world. You are humble and can execute on small details, but trustworthy and can think strategically. The ideal candidate may also have an understanding of finance operations. 

You are an excellent communicator and excited to partner with various teams across the company (legal, events, product). You are a do-er—someone who has an eye for creating processes to create order and repeatable systems. 

You’ll sit at the intersection of operations, finance, legal, and leadership. You will drive critical workflows that will help drive diligence and compliance in our processes. You will play a key role in making sure the operational engine behind Imbue is reliable and built for growth.

 

Example Projects

  • Manage run-of-business compliance across finance and legal.
  • Ensure we are delivering mission-critical items on time across finance, legal, and investor relations (taxes, documentation, reporting). 
  • Manage contracts and relationships with Imbue’s vendors. 
  • Manage relationships with finance and legal vendors to maintain reliable and quality work. 
  • Own company-wide tooling. Manage our tooling strategy (who we use, why, where are overlaps). Manage tooling contracts and payments.
  • Create automation integrations, workflows and systems for company rhythm of business (e.g. Zapier, Notion, Slack) 
  • Own our core finance operations. This includes managing our vendors and partners, tracking bookkeeping, budgeting, quarterly reports, tax compliance, monthly closes, accounts payable, invoices, and payments. 
  • Partner closely with legal to manage Imbue’s cap table, coordinate 409A valuations, and ensure equity data is accurate and well-documented. 
  • Support investor relations by coordinating investor updates and materials, verifying that financial data is clean and reliable, and partnering with leadership to support decision-making.
  • Auditing existing processes across finance, legal, tooling, and governance, and creating opportunities for improved workflows that can scale with Imbue’s growth.

 

You Are

  • A hands-on builder who digs into the details, no task is too small, you’re excited to create structure from scratch and make things better every time you touch them. You think systematically and create with intention to last. You incorporate agents into your workflow to automate and build new systems (e.g. building integrations with Zapier, Slack, Notion) to streamline operations.
  • Comfortable navigating ambiguity and complexity, especially across multiple vendors in various domains. You are able to manage these relationships and ensure good quality of work across our vendors.
  • Familiar with finance ops, are detail-oriented and financially fluent. You are comfortable working with spreadsheets, financial reports, and systems, and thoughtful about creating extensible workflows that can be maintained and audited later on. 
  • An excellent and thoughtful communicator with the ability to coordinate and drive results across all groups at Imbue.
  • Interested in partnering with legal and gaining exposure to the venture and startup space. 
  • A reliable, dependable partner who can grow to represent the company’s interests to external parties.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
