Chief of Staff
Reports to: CEO
Compensation: Competitive cash + equity
The Mission
Goldbridge is building the financial operating system for the largest asset class in the world – real estate. More than $1T in rent flows through landlord bank accounts annually, with roughly a quarter locked in idle reserves and security deposits – and billions more leaking from unnecessary property expenses. And with $2.5T in real estate loans about to mature in 2027/28, property owners are grasping at straws to boost their income ASAP. Goldbridge solves this problem by creating the first AI-powered banking platform for real estate owners. We are backed by Y Combinator and other world-class investors, and our CEO is a 2x YC founder, former White House advisor, and 100-unit real estate owner/operator who understands this industry deeply.

The Work
What You'll Focus On
- •Bank + compliance workflows: diligence calls, documentation, tracking requirements, and unblocking stakeholders
- •Customer onboarding support: coordinating KYB readiness, launch timelines, and weekly customer status
- •Partnership execution: keeping external partner threads moving (PMS, banks, vendors) with tight next steps
- •Internal operating cadence: weekly planning, KPI dashboarding, and decision memos
- •Hiring & recruiting ops: pipeline management, scheduling, scorecards, and candidate experience
- •Special projects: high-impact initiatives that don't neatly fit into a single function, owned end-to-end
What You'll Do
- •Help drive cross-functional execution: coordinate Product/Eng, Ops, Compliance, and GTM to hit launch and onboarding timelines
- •Own a single tracker for key company threads (bank launch, design partners, product milestones, hiring) and keep it current
- •Write and maintain crisp internal docs: decision memos, project plans, customer launch plans, KPI updates
- •Communicate with external stakeholders (bank partners, vendors, customers) to keep work moving and unblock decisions
- •Identify bottlenecks early and fix them (process, ownership, escalation, or resourcing)
- •Create leverage: automate recurring workflows, templates, and systems so the team moves faster with less chaos
What We're Looking For
- •5+ years of experience in a high-execution environment: startup ops, consulting, investing, banking/fintech ops, product/strategy, or former founder
- •Track record of owning complex, cross-functional projects end-to-end
- •Exceptional organization: you naturally create structure, trackers, and clarity where others see chaos
- •Strong written communication: you can write clear updates, action plans, and decision memos fast
- •Comfort with ambiguity and speed: you don't need perfect information to move a project forward
- •High integrity and discretion (you'll be in sensitive conversations)
- •Ability to be direct, calm, and effective with senior stakeholders (banks, real estate execs, etc.)
Bonus Points (Not Required)
- •Experience in fintech, payments, banking partnerships, compliance, or B2B onboarding (KYB/KYC)
- •Real estate familiarity (PMCs, owners, AppFolio/Yardi, trust accounting, etc.)
- •Experience hiring early-stage teams and running recruiting process
- •Strong quantitative instincts (can build basic KPI dashboards and models)
- •Comfort traveling for key partner/customer meetings
Why This Role Is Special
- •You'll work directly with a CEO who has built and scaled before – and you'll learn fast
- •You'll operate at the center of a category-defining fintech company that's growing rapidly
- •You'll have direct leverage on outcomes: bank launch, customer activation, partnerships, hiring, etc
- •If you perform, this role can grow into a COO / Head of Operations trajectory
