Agent guide: [/agents.md](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/agents.md). --- # Chief of Staff to the CEO & CTO - **Company:** CSC - **Location:** Las Vegas, NV, United States - **Experience:** Expert - **Contract:** Permanent contract - **Skills:** Artificial Intelligence, Microsoft Office - **Published:** August 4, 2026 - **Apply:** https://www.indeed.com/viewjob?jk=cf4154ab4f6ccfcf ## About the Role * 7+ years in strategy and operations, a founder's/executive office, consulting, banking, finance, product operations, or technical program leadership. * Exceptional written and verbal communication - you can compress messy context into a precise decision memo without losing nuance. * Strong business and financial fluency (P&Ls, unit economics, business cases, experimental measurement). * Enough technical fluency to work credibly with engineering, data, AI, and security leaders, and to spot an incomplete answer. * Demonstrated ability to independently validate analyses and AI-assisted work. * Track record of driving ambiguous, cross-functional initiatives from unclear problem to measurable result. * Excellent judgment on what needs executive attention, what to delegate, and what to document. * High discretion, low ego, and the confidence to give direct, evidence-backed pushback to senior leaders. * Strong systems thinking - you build mechanisms that survive after you hand off the work. * Comfort operating at high velocity across time zones, with periodic travel for executive sessions. ## Description We are hiring a Chief of Staff to increase the combined leverage of the CEO and CTO. As Chief of Staff to the CEO & CTO, you will turn high-velocity discussion across Slack, meetings, and operating reviews into durable decisions, clear ownership, and completed work - building the connective system between company strategy, technology strategy, and day-to-day execution. This is not an executive assistant, pure coordination, or strategy-only role. You will understand the substance, challenge weak reasoning, spot what hasn't been decided, and personally drive ambiguous work until it has a capable owner and a measurable outcome. Success in the first 6-12 months means decisions are captured and easy to retrieve, the executive cadence produces measurable outputs, analyses meet a consistent bar for rigor, and priority initiatives move faster with less re-litigation. This is a lean team. You will own a lot, move fast, and make decisions with full end-to-end responsibility., * Capture material decisions and convert them into a durable decision log (decision, rationale, owner, effective date, revisit conditions) and a policy/governance register. * Identify contradictory or stale decisions and force resolution before teams execute against different interpretations. * Broadcast concise decision summaries to the right operators while protecting confidentiality. Executive Cadence & Priority Governance * Run the operating cadence for the CEO-CTO partnership: agendas, pre-reads, decision prompts, action registers, and follow-through. Improve or kill meetings without a clear decision, problem, or review purpose. * Maintain a single view of top-priority initiatives with named DRIs, milestones, dependencies, and risks. * Ensure commitments survive the meeting - confirm owners and deadlines, track completion, escalate misses. Metrics, Economics & Experiment Rigor * Preflight executive analyses: verify sources, definitions, calculations, and assumptions before they reach the CEO or CTO. * Package recommendations in decision-ready form - what we believe, why, what could disprove it, confidence level, next action. * Partner with Finance, Data, Product, Engineering, and brand teams to turn ambiguous questions into testable hypotheses. * Use AI aggressively to accelerate research and execution, while independently validating AI-generated claims, code, and calculations before they inform decisions. Strategic Initiatives & Cross-Functional Execution * Own a small portfolio of top-priority initiatives end-to-end - from problem definition through implementation and handoff. * Step into ownerless but important work, build enough structure to execute, and transition it once stable. * Coordinate dependencies across technology, data, finance, growth, and operations; remove blockers and escalate tradeoffs without becoming a permanent substitute for functional ownership. Operational Risk & Control * Run a risk-intake funnel for high-impact FinOps, security, data-governance, and vendor issues, with severity, owner, and deadline. * Convert spend anomalies, system limits, and recurring alerts into tracked remediation. * Surface pressure toward undocumented or risky workarounds so the accountable leader makes the tradeoff explicitly. * Give the CEO and CTO a concise view of what's off track, what changed, who owns it, and what decision (if any) is needed. ## Related Videos - [Edit Your Future: Queerverse Radical AI](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/909-edit-your-future-queerverse-radical-ai) - [Hidden efficiency - How to enable your non-engineers as a CTO](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1412-hidden-efficiency-how-to-enable-your-non-engineers-as-a-cto) - [AI is dead, long live AK](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1093-ai-is-dead-long-live-ak) - [How Visionary Leaders Drive Transformation](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1701-how-visionary-leaders-drive-transformation) - [From Global Capability Centers to AI-Powered Command Centers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100096-from-global-capability-centers-to-ai-powered-command-centers) - [Angstfreude - AI and Corporate Culture - The Thrill and the Threat](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100354-angstfreude-ai-and-corporate-culture-the-thrill-and-the-threat) ## Related Articles - [Best US AI Conferences for CTOs in 2026: Build vs. Buy, Vendor Evaluation, and Peer Intelligence](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/736-best-us-ai-conferences-for-ctos-in-2026-build-vs-buy-vendor-evaluation-and-peer-intelligence) - [Navigating the AI Shift](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/629-navigating-the-ai-shift) - [Trustworthy AI Starts at Deployment: 5 Checks Before You Ship](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/753-trustworthy-ai-starts-at-deployment-5-checks-before-you-ship) - [Coffee with Developers - Maria Apazoglou - Making AI understandable for all in production](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/475-coffee-with-developers-maria-apazoglou-making-ai-understandable-for-all-in-production) - [Never delegate the understanding](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/749-never-delegate-the-understanding) - [How We Built a Worry-Free System That Runs for 10+ Years – And What We’d Do Again](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/751-how-we-built-a-worry-free-system-that-runs-for-10-years-and-what-we-d-do-again)
