The Company is seeking a Founding Chief of Staff to work closely with its founder and help shape business direction. The role combines market strategy, go-to-market execution, customer development, and operations. Responsibilities include identifying promising customer segments, validating demand, and developing pricing, positioning, packaging, and return-on-investment strategies.
