Chief of Staff
Bengaluru · Posted 6D AGO
The Chief of Staff to the CEO is a high-leverage, high-visibility role that acts as the CEO's extended arm across cross-functional priorities (AI, Technology, Product, Sales, Operations, Marketing). You'll be a hands-on problem solver, strategic operator, and cross-team orchestrator who translates CEO priorities into clear plans, drives execution discipline, and ensures organizational clarity and momentum. This is the first Chief of Staff role at Pibit.ai — an opportunity to build the Founder's Office function from the ground up and have outsized impact on company strategy and operations.
Key Responsibilities
- Act as the CEO's problem-solving partner on complex, cross-team challenges.
- Translate CEO priorities into clear tasks, execution plans, and measurable outcomes.
- Prepare decision-ready analysis, insights, briefs, and recommendations for leadership.
- Represent the CEO in select internal and external discussions as required.
- Run leadership syncs, founder reviews, and company-wide OKR check-ins.
- Build and maintain systems for execution tracking, accountability, and risk/blocker visibility.
- Design and implement processes and cadences that keep teams aligned, fast, and focused.
- Own high-stakes cross-functional problems end-to-end with a hands-on approach.
- Work with functional heads to clarify priorities, accelerate outcomes, and remove blockers.
- Drive alignment across Sales, Product, Engineering, and Operations to ensure timely delivery.
- Identify operational bottlenecks and design scalable solutions to improve throughput.
- Strengthen information flow and decision continuity while the CEO operates partially from the U.S.
- Drive an asynchronous execution culture with clarity, speed, and measurable follow-through.
Requirements
- 5–8 years of professional experience in high-growth B2B startups, Tier-1 management consulting, strategic operations, or as a founder/operator.

- Strong business acumen with a solid understanding of B2B SaaS operating and go-to-market models.
- Cross-functional fluency — comfortable contributing across Sales, Product, Engineering, Ops, Marketing, and Finance.
- Exceptional problem-solving skills: break down multi-dimensional problems and drive them to resolution independently.
- Execution excellence: history of owning initiatives end-to-end, driving accountability, and delivering results on time.
- Excellent written and verbal communication; able to synthesize complex information into concise, decision-ready materials.
- Prior experience working with founders or in a founder-adjacent role is strongly preferred.
