About Partiful

Partiful’s mission is simple — to cultivate friendships through real-world experiences. We believe the best friendships start at parties and grow through shared moments. Our app makes it effortless to plan unforgettable events and connect people offline.

Named Google’s Best App of 2024, a Finalist for Apple’s App Store Awards, and one of TIME’s 100 Most Innovative Companies of 2025, Partiful is redefining social connection for a new generation. Backed by Andreessen Horowitz and Google Ventures, we’re scaling fast — and we’re just getting started.

The Role

We’re seeking a Business Operations Lead to help build the operational engine that powers Partiful’s next stage of growth. You’ll lead an AI-native team that operates as both the backbone and problem-solving force of the company — streamlining, automating, and scaling systems across every department.

You’ll act as both a strategist and an operator: executing high-impact projects, fixing bottlenecks, and embedding automation and AI into our workflows.

What You’ll Do

• Lead the Business Operations team, creating an AI-native culture focused on speed, efficiency, and automation.

• Personally execute high-priority company projects and mentor team members.

• Streamline and automate internal workflows, deploying AI agents to scale operations across teams.

• Identify inefficiencies, diagnose root causes, and design creative solutions end-to-end.

• Source, test, and integrate third-party tools that improve productivity and collaboration.

• Prototype internal tools and automations using vibe coding and rapid iteration.

• Partner with leadership on strategic decision-making and company-wide initiatives.

Who You Are

• 4–8 years in business operations, strategy, or similar roles, with at least 2 years in a high-growth startup.

• 2+ years of people management experience.

• 2+ years of field work (e.g., operations at delivery or mobility startups, consulting, or forward-deployed roles).

• Strong analytical ability — fluent in SQL, Python, or dashboarding tools.

• AI-native mindset — you instinctively automate and leverage AI to accelerate workflows.

• Highly adaptable and resourceful — comfortable fixing anything from strategy gaps to tactical inefficiencies.

• Excellent communicator with cross-functional leadership experience.

• Bachelor’s degree required; MBA is a plus.
