AI-Native Business Operator

AI-Native BizOps

About Aegis AI: Aegis AI is building the next generation of email security—powered by AI agents that think and act like human analysts. Founded by the Google security leaders who built Gmail and Chrome Security and backed by Accel and Foundation Capital, we are transforming how enterprises protect their people from modern social engineering threats.

The Role

As the AI-Native Business Operator, you will be the architectural backbone of Aegis AI. While our top .1% security engineers build the "immune system" for email, you will build the "operating system" for the company. You will work closely with the CEO to bridge the gap between high-level strategy and operational discipline, ensuring that our rapid growth is supported by robust financial planning, optimized processes, and AI-driven decision-making.

This is a high-impact role for a strategic thinker who isn't afraid to roll up their sleeves to build a world-class finance and ops function from the ground up.

Responsibilities

• Financial Planning & Analysis (FP&A): Own the corporate model. Lead budgeting, forecasting, and long-range planning. You will translate our technical roadmap into financial requirements and headcount plans.
• Strategic Growth & Analytics: Partner with GTM and Product teams to define and track North Star metrics (ARR, NRR, CAC/LTV). Build the dashboards that provide the leadership team with a real-time pulse on the business.
• Fundraising & Investor Relations: Partner with the CEO on future fundraising rounds. You will own the data room, manage investor reporting, and craft the financial narrative that secures our next stage of capital.
• Operational Excellence: Design and implement the systems and processes that allow us to scale. This includes managing our vendor stack, optimizing procurement, and overseeing legal/compliance workflows.
• Board & Stakeholder Management: Prepare high-stakes materials for Board of Directors meetings. Synthesize complex financial and operational data into clear, actionable insights for our Tier-1 investors.
• Capital Allocation: Act as a "General Manager" of our resources. Evaluate the ROI of new market entries, specialized AI model integrations, and strategic hires to ensure we are investing in the highest-leverage opportunities.

Who You Are

• AI-Native: You're in 5+ AI tools every minute of every day. You're always find ways to do traditional tasks 10x faster.
• 4–7+ Years of Experience: Background in investment banking, private equity, or strategic finance at a high-growth SaaS/AI startup. You understand the nuances of venture-backed business cycles.
• High Agency "Fixer": You don't wait for a manual; you build the infrastructure. You can pivot from a complex tax/compliance discussion to a strategic conversation about GTM spend without missing a beat.
• Data-Driven & Technically Fluent: You are a master of Excel/SQL and financial modeling, but you also understand the "why" behind the tech. You can speak fluently about AI unit economics and infrastructure costs.
• The "General Manager" Mindset: You treat the company’s capital as your own. This role is a direct path to a future CFO or COO position.
• Master Communicator: You can distill dense financial spreadsheets into a compelling story for engineers, founders, and world-class investors alike.
