Business Operations at Squads Labs

The Role You'll manage the cross-functional operations that keep Altitude moving. You'll drive people operations end to end, manage our board and investor relationships behind the scenes, and be the person who reads every vendor and partner agreement before it gets signed. You'll work daily with the founders and CBO. This is not inbox triage with a title. The work sits close to the center of the company: people operations, board materials, partner contracts. It requires judgment, discretion, and the ability to run a dozen threads without dropping one. What You'll Own People Operations Own onboarding and offboarding end to end: contracts, accounts, equipment delivery and inventory, first day through last Process people paperwork across FTEs and EORs: employment contracts, salary increases, option grants, comp changes Own and administer our HRIS and related people ops systems, and keep it the source of truth Own the culture layer: new-hire welcomes, team rituals, birthdays, gifts, swag, and all the intangible elements of culture that make a remote-friendly team feel like a team Run team offsites end to end: venues, travel, logistics, agendas Manage physical office spaces (can be done remotely) and the paperwork + ops tied to them Board & Investor Relations Organize board meetings end to end: scheduling, materials, notes, follow-ups Prepare board updates and own corporate admin Handle investor document requests and run ongoing investor communications Consult with outside counsel on corporate matters Vendors & Partners Review the business logic of every contract: understand the agreement, catch the red flags, and know what the partnership is actually worth to us Manage document signing and keep internal stakeholders aligned through execution Own recurring reporting requirements for our banking and infrastructure partners Run day-to-day communications with vendors and partners You Might Be Right For This If You're the most organized person you know and it's not close You handle sensitive information (comp, cap table, board materials) with total discretion You're comfortable in the room with lawyers, investors, and executives You're proactive: you fix things before anyone asks and flag risks before they land You can context-switch between an option grant, a board deck, and a vendor renewal without dropping any of them You use AI to automate the repetitive work so your time goes to what actually needs judgment You're low-ego and high-ownership: no task is beneath you, no system is beyond you You move fast, make decisions, and don't need approval loops to ship Requirements 3+ years in operations, corporate admin, or legal ops at a high-growth startup Track record of running high-stakes processes with zero drops: board cycles, contract workflows, people paperwork Exceptional organization and follow-through. This is non-negotiable. Enough contract fluency to read an agreement and flag what matters commercially, not just legally. You're not a lawyer
