Impulse Labs is redefining home energy with appliances that double as battery storage, making homes more resilient and energy-efficient. We are a venture-backed, fast-scaling Series A startup on the path to Series B and need a highly experienced, strategic operator to work alongside our CEO.
As Chief of Staff, you will act as a trusted right hand to the CEO, owning critical company-wide initiatives and enabling high-velocity execution. Your mission is to 4x the CEO’s capacity by solving complex operational challenges, driving strategic projects, and ensuring cross-functional alignment at the highest level.
The ideal candidate has 8-15+ years of experience in leadership roles such as Founder, Chief of Staff, COO, GM, BizOps lead, or investor, with a strong track record of scaling startups, leading fundraising, and managing executive operations in a high-growth environment.
Own the CEO’s priorities – Track commitments, drive execution, follow up on action items, and ensure nothing falls through the cracks.
Own the CEO’s strategic initiatives , making independent decisions to unblock execution across the company.
Structure and manage the CEO’s decision-making process —ensuring focus on the highest-value work and eliminating distraction. Ruthlessly prioritize meetings, remove distractions, and block off focus time.
Develop executive-level materials for board meetings, investor updates, and fundraising.
Directly represent the CEO in meetings with investors, key partners, and internal leadership when necessary.
Ensure high-impact communication by drafting critical messages, prep for meetings, synthesizing information, keeping stakeholders informed, and translating decisions into clear next steps.
Build and maintain the CEO’s task system – Manage their to-do list, inbox, calendar, and delegation process.
Run company-wide operating rhythms —setting clear OKRs, driving accountability, and ensuring teams execute effectively.
Own cross-functional problem-solving —stepping in or assigning the correct owner to resolve high-stakes challenges that lack a clear owner.
Ensure high-velocity execution by systematically tracking key decisions, removing blockers, and ensuring timely follow-through.
Optimize internal processes and structure as we scale from Series A to Series B.
Lead Series B fundraising execution —tracking investor outreach, preparing fundraising materials, and managing due diligence.
Own investor communications —ensuring consistent, high-quality updates to stakeholders.
Prepare board materials and drive board-level strategic discussions.
Drive key strategic initiatives that will define the next stage of Impulse Labs’ growth.
Own hiring and team-building initiatives —ensuring we recruit and onboard top talent at an executive level.
Proactively identify gaps in the organization and solve them.
Experienced Operator – You have 8-15+ years of experience in high-growth startups, venture-backed companies, or equivalent strategic roles.
Founder/Executive Mindset – You’ve either been a founder, a senior executive, or a top-tier Chief of Staff and know how to run a company.
Highly Strategic & Execution-Oriented – You don’t just analyze problems; you solve them and drive results.
Trusted Partner to the CEO – You have the judgment, leadership, and decision-making ability to act as an extension of the CEO.
Deeply Experienced in Investor Relations – You know how to handle fundraising, investor updates, and board communications at a high level.
Operationally World-Class – You understand how to design and implement systems that allow a company to scale from Series A to Series B and beyond.
Autonomous operator —you thrive in a role where you’re expected to figure things out and execute with minimal oversight.
This is not an advisory or administrative role —it’s a high-impact, execution-heavy leadership position that will directly shape the trajectory of Impulse Labs. If you’re looking for a seat at the table while driving the company forward at full velocity , this is the role for you.
Impulse is an equal-opportunity employer. We celebrate diversity and prohibit discrimination and harassment. We are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees where everyone feels safe and welcome.
