This is a high-impact role that offers exposure to how a fast-growing startup operates while building your skills in business strategy and operations.

• Contribute to planning processes and help prepare materials for leadership review
• Assist with cross-functional projects, working with teams across GTM, product, engineering and operations
• Analyze business problems and translate findings into clear recommendations
• Help optimize processes and drive operational improvements across departments

🙌 What you bring

• 1-3 years of experience in a business operations or analytics role, ideally coming from a top tier management consulting firm
• Strong analytical skills - ability to analyze data, derive key insights and diagnose business issues
• Ability to think independently and strategically, with an exceptional attention to detail to drive program management and execution of strategy
• Ability to translate complex data into clear strategic insights and recommendations for executive leadership
• Strong executive presence - excellent verbal & written communications skills
• Strong proficiency with Excel; some experience in SQL and BI tooling
• High intellectual horsepower with attention to detail and ability to work with autonomy
• You think and operate like a founder; you don’t wait for permission to make an impact

✨ Why work at Pulley?

• We’ve moved beyond early-stage uncertainty - Our product has traction and we’re building on a solid foundation, but we’re still early enough in our journey where your work will directly shape the company’s trajectory as we scale.
• Make it easier for anyone to start a company - Founders turn bold ideas into reality - building things that might not exist otherwise. Pulley exists to make equity management simpler, smarter, and more accessible for founders from day one.
• Work with a high-performing and passionate team - We value the concept of stunning colleagues and we’re thoughtful about creating a team that is excited about building a great company together. Here are some traits that enable our team members to thrive:
• First Principles Thinking  - We believe in breaking down problems into their most basic parts, and that something is possible unless proven otherwise. We understand “why did certain things work?” and apply it to our situation.
• Ship It & Iterate - We value people who not only generate ideas but also do the work to bring them to life. Instead of fixating on outcomes, we focus on the inputs we can control and take our best bets. We move quickly to ship something, talk to users, get feedback, and iterate.
• Boldly Honest & Aggressively Considerate - Being boldly honest means challenging each other to set and hit goals, and make the right strategic decisions on what to build. Being aggressively considerate means caring about one another as humans and speaking up with empathy so we can succeed together as a team.
• Ego-less Learner - Everyday at Pulley, we’re trying things that we’ve never done before - sometimes they work; sometimes they don’t. It’s important to embrace the mindset of a beginner - stay curious, open to feedback, and ready to learn and grow alongside the team.
