Role:
Chief of Staff

Location:
Pune (In-Office)

Experience:
3–6 Years

Profile:
Ex-Founder / Early Operator / Tier-1 Pedigree (IIT/IIM/BITS/ISB/Global)

About Clara

Clara is building the AI-native
System of Action
for trades businesses — HVAC, plumbing, fire safety, and beyond. These are multi-billion-dollar industries still running on phone calls, clipboards, and chaos. Clara sits on top of legacy CRMs and runs the business, answering calls, scheduling jobs, dispatching techs, and collecting payments.

We're already live with
200+ paying customers
, growing fast, and backed by
Tier-1 VCs and seasoned operators
who've built category-defining companies.

The Role

We're looking for a
high-agency operator
to work closely with the Founder and leadership team to drive execution and scale. As Chief of Staff, you'll be in the room for critical decisions, ensure alignment across teams, and act as a trusted face of Clara with customers, investors, and advisors.

This isn't just an operations role — it's a chance to help shape the DNA of a breakout AI-native company.

What You'll Drive

  • Fundraising with the Founder:
    Be directly involved in shaping the story, prepping materials, and managing investor conversations
  • Execution Across the Board:
    Ensure teams align to operating plans and move from updates to outcomes
  • Vision to Revenue:
    Translate founder vision into tangible product, sales, CS, and hiring actions — always anchored to revenue
  • Stakeholder Management:
  • Internal:
    Keep CXOs, product, growth, and engineering in sync, surfacing priorities and unblocking teams
  • External:
    Be the face of Clara with key partners, investors, and early customers, ensuring communication is crisp and credible
  • Problem Ownership:
    Pick up ambiguous but critical problems — from internal inefficiencies to new market launches — and own them end-to-end
  • Culture and Talent:
    Shape Clara's operating cadence, help hire A+ talent, and embed a high-performance culture

Why This Role is Special

  • Exposure to Tier-1 VCs and Advisors:
    Work closely with some of the sharpest investors and operators backing Clara
  • 0→1 and 1→10 Experience:
    Be part of both company-building stages — setting foundations and then scaling aggressively
  • Founder-Track Opportunity:
    Learn the full spectrum of building a company alongside the founder — from fundraising to customer growth to product bets
  • Massive Scope, Real Impact:
    Sit at the center of product, business, and execution with visibility across all major decisions
  • Build in AI's Breakout Decade:
    Shape how AI redefines entire industries and leaves legacy players behind

You Might Be a Fit If

  • You've been a founder, co-founder, or an early operator owning high-stakes problems
  • You bring 3–6 years in VC-backed startups, consulting, or venture
  • You have a top-tier academic background (IIT/IIM/BITS/ISB/Global)
  • You're deeply accountable, hands-on, and thrive in ambiguity
  • You're allergic to mediocrity and hungry to build something enduring

Want to drive the business, not just follow it? We'd love to meet you.
