Operations Lead

Open 26d

About AIUC

Our mission is to underwrite superintelligence. We red-team, certify, and insure agents - working with AI category leaders like ElevenLabs, Lovable, Harvey, UiPath, and Fin.


Soon, agents will take on critical work in hospitals, banks and governments. This could create abundance - or go terribly wrong. History teaches us that standards and insurance are capitalism’s best tools for making risk legible and shaping incentives.


We’ve built the gold standard for agent security & reliability, AIUC-1, with 100+ CISOs from the Fortune 1000. Our team comes from Anthropic, McKinsey, METR, Palantir, Amazon - 50% are previous founders. We've raised $55m from Ribbit, First Harmonic, and Nat Friedman. Read more here, here, and here.

The Role

We're looking for someone who can be the operational backbone of AIUC and own how the business runs from first principles – insourcing the core operations we're currently stitching together,, building the systems and financial controls a fast-scaling company needs, and removing friction and bottlenecks wherever you find it and gear us for growth.

In practice this means, you will:

  • Insource and own core operations — bring the operational infrastructure, systems and processes that keep AIUC running in-house (vendors, contractors, legal, HR, etc)

  • Centralize spend and financial controls — consolidate vendors and spend, put controls in place, and create visibility into where money goes.

  • Support recruiting and people ops — help the team hire and onboard well as we grow headcount across functions.

  • Run strategic finance and reporting — own board reporting, financial planning, and the numbers leadership runs the company on.

  • Drive efficiency across the org — identify where the company is losing time or money and design the fix; turn unstructured problems into structured, durable systems.

What we're looking for

Someone who wants to deliver real impact and ownership. We think you’ll be successful if you have:

  • 6–10 years of experience, ideally having owned operations at a high-growth startup and seen scaling pains firsthand — or a top-tier generalist (consulting, finance, operating) we trust to learn ops fast.

  • A killer smart generalist: analytical, detail-obsessed, obsessive about efficiency, with a relentless work ethic.

  • Reasons from first principles and is just as comfortable going from a blank page to a concrete plan as executing it.

  • Moves with urgency and communicates with structure.

  • Finds satisfaction in enabling others and takes pride in operations that run seamlessly.

Compensation & Perks

  • Competitive annual salary

  • Equity (significant part of total compensation)

  • Health, dental and vision insurance for you and your dependents

  • Visa sponsorship and relocation stipend to bring you to SF, if needed

  • Daily meals

Our Values

Strong Back - High standards, keep our promises, work hard
