首席运营官助理
Chief of Staff, Co-CEO
我们正在通过融合艺术与科学,构建模拟世界的AI。
我们认为世界模型是人工智能进步的前沿。仅靠语言模型无法解决世界上最困难的问题——机器人技术、疾病、科学发现。真正的进步需要能够体验世界并从错误中学习的模型,就像人类一样。而这种试错过程在模拟环境中进行时,可以大幅加速,而不是在现实世界中。
世界模型为通用模拟提供了最清晰的路径,改变了故事的讲述方式、科学进步的方式以及人类下个前沿领域的探索方式。
我们的团队由富有创造力、思维开放、富有同理心且有抱负的人组成,他们决心改变世界。我们渴望不断打造不可能的事物,而我们实现这一目标的能力依赖于打造一支非凡的团队。如果你也渴望做到这一点,我们很期待收到你的消息。
我们正在寻找一位Co-CEO的首席运营官,作为高杠杆的执行者,直接与Co-CEO合作,推动组织和公司的清晰度、执行力和规模。你将帮助塑造Co-CEO建立的每一段关系如何发展和维持。这不仅仅是一个协调角色,而是一个以执行为重点的职位,适合那些希望打造事物、对关键项目负责,并帮助一家世代公司成长的人。
这个职位是一个混合岗位,位于我们的纽约总部办公室。
**你将负责**
- 与Co-CEO和高管团队紧密合作,推动战略计划向前发展
- 倡导并转化Co-CEO设定的高层目标,制定明确的行动计划,包括范围、负责人和时间表
- 将Co-CEO对话中的客户洞察转化为结构化的请求并跟进
- 维护一个单一的真相来源,记录优先级最高的项目,使高管团队具备可见性
- 识别运营瓶颈,并确保关键项目的持续跟进
- 跨职能地与GTM、合作伙伴、产品、研究、工程、财务等团队协作,塑造执行机会
- 深入理解我们的产品和未来路线图,具备敏锐的市场定位意识
**你需要具备**
- 在投资银行、咨询、金融或战略与运营等领域,拥有4年以上相关经验,且在早期阶段有经历

We are building AI to simulate the world through merging art and science.
We believe that world models are at the frontier of progress in artificial intelligence. Language models alone won’t solve the world’s hardest problems – robotics, disease, scientific discovery. Real progress requires models that experience the world and learn from their mistakes, the same way that humans do. And this kind of trial and error can be massively accelerated when done in simulation, rather than in the real world.
World models offer the most clear path to general-purpose simulation, changing how stories are told, how scientific progress is made and how the next frontiers of humanity are reached.
Our team consists of creative, open minded, caring and ambitious people who are determined to change the world. We aspire to continuously build impossible things and our ability to do so relies on building an incredible team. If you are driven to do the same, we'd love to hear from you.
We are seeking a Chief of Staff to the Co-CEO to serve as a high-leverage operator working directly with him to drive clarity, execution, and scale within the organization and for the company. You'll help shape how every relationship the Co-CEO builds is developed and sustained over time. This is not a purely coordination role. This is an execution-heavy position for someone who wants to build, take ownership of critical initiatives, and help scale a generational company.
This role is a hybrid role based out of our NYC HQ office.
**What you’ll do**
- Partner closely with the Co-CEO and Executive Team to drive strategic initiatives forward
- Champion and translate high-level goals set by the Co-CEO into clear action plans by defined scope, owners, and timelines
- Translate customer insights from the Co-CEO's conversations into structured asks and follow up
- Maintain a single source of truth on top-priority initiatives so the Executive Team has visibility
- Identify operational bottlenecks and ensure consistent follow-through on key initiatives
- Work cross-functionally across GTM, Partnerships, Product, Research, Engineering, Finance, and others to shape opportunities for execution
- Develop a deep, functional and technical understanding of our products and future roadmap, with a keen sense of where Runway sits in the market
**What you’ll need**
- 4+ years of overall experience across some combination of investment banking, consulting, finance, or strategy & operations at early-stage startups
- Motivated by the opportunity to build new systems in a high-growth environment, with a focus on quality, scale, and automation
- Strong communication skills, both written and verbal, with the ability to surface issues early and keeping the right people informed before being prompted
- Executive presence and communication, with the ability to hold your own with a studio chief, a CTO, and a Runway research lead in the same week
- Ability to work in a fast-paced, dynamic environment and manage multiple priorities with expansive ownership
- A strong bias towards action and belief that no task is too small for you
- High technical aptitude for understanding complex technologies, tools, systems, and issues
- New York City based
Runway strives to recruit and retain exceptional talent from diverse backgrounds while ensuring pay equity for our team. Our salary ranges are based on competitive market rates for our size, stage and industry, and salary is just one part of the overall compensation package we provide.
There are many factors that go into salary determinations, including relevant experience, skill level and qualifications assessed during the interview process, and maintaining internal equity with peers on the team. The range shared below is a general expectation for the function as posted, but we are also open to considering candidates who may be more or less experienced than outlined in the job description. In this case, we will communicate any updates in the expected salary range.
Lastly, the provided range is the expected salary for candidates in the U.S. Outside of those regions, there may be a change in the range, which again, will be communicated to candidates.
