You'll work directly with the CEO on whatever the company needs most that quarter. As a strategist, consultant, and implementer, you will ensure streamlined activities within the organization in a consultative manner. The ideal candidate brings business acumen, strategy formulation, finance, data analysis, project management, and team working. You will handle the day-to-day management of priorities to allow the CEO to focus on growing the business, and you will contribute to the long-term success of the company. In the last 6 months, this seat would have meant: Building the business case and 12-week launch plan for a new product line, including pricing, pilot selection, and vendor contracts Designing the company's ESOP distribution framework across ~200 employees Owning the data room and narrative work for fundraising conversations Running competitive research deep enough to reposition a product against incumbents Prototyping internal tools with Claude Code or Cursor instead of writing a spec and waiting Some weeks you're in spreadsheets pressure-testing unit economics. Some weeks you're on calls with US dealers. Some weeks you're shipping a v0 of something yourself because that's faster than briefing a team. What You'll Do Run programs that cross functions. A new SKU launch touches product, legal, sales, and data partnerships. You keep all of it moving, find the blocking dependency early, and escalate before it slips. Do the analysis behind big decisions. Market sizing, pricing models, build-vs-buy calls, org design questions. Your output goes straight to the CEO and often to the board, so it has to be right and it has to be readable. Build with AI tools. Spyne sells AI software and runs on it…
