About Altruist

The opportunity

We're hiring a Chief of Staff to partner directly with our CEO as we scale into our next phase of growth. This role sits at the center of the company's most important priorities, driving clarity, accountability, and execution across the business. Exceptional project management and organizational skills are key to success. You'll operate as an extension of the CEO, helping translate strategy into action and ensuring the right problems are being solved at the right time. You should be equally comfortable building a financial model, structuring an ambiguous problem, and standing in front of executives, the board, or the broader company to drive alignment.

This role can be based in our Culver City or San Francisco Bay Area office and requires a minimum of three days per week in-office.
