Job Description

📍 New York City (In-Person, Full-Time) | Competitive Salary + Equity + Benefits

Meela is reimagining how older adults are supported through everyday connection. We’ve built a phone-based AI companion that brings intelligent, emotionally attuned conversation to the people who need it most—those often left behind by traditional tech.

We’re hiring a Chief of Staff who is excited about working across company strategy, operations, go-to-market execution, hiring, and product. This is a high-impact, high-trust role designed for someone who thrives in fast-moving environments, operates with strong independent judgment, and wants visibility into nearly every function of an early-stage company.

If you’re looking for a role that combines strategic thinking with day-to-day execution—and you enjoy solving problems that don’t come with instruction manuals—this is the kind of opportunity that builds both skill and leverage over time.

What You’ll Do

• Drive execution across strategic priorities, operations, and product-GTM alignment
• Translate high-level goals into actionable workstreams with clear ownership and follow-through
• Interface with care providers, customers, and external stakeholders—ensuring conversations turn into forward motion
• Keep the company focused, coordinated, and operating at a high standard
• Help hire other amazing leaders and executors
• Own cross-functional projects that don’t yet have a home—and build the systems that will support them as we grow
• Travel will be required

What We’re Looking For

• 3+ years of professional experience (startup, strategy, consulting, product, ops, or adjacent roles)
• Highly self-motivated, organized, and capable of running with open-ended problems
• Strong written and verbal communication skills
• Comfortable with ambiguity and drawn to the challenge of figuring things out
• Clear belief in Meela’s mission and a desire to work on something that genuinely matters
• Excited by fast pace, high ownership, and the chance to wear multiple hats

Nice to Haves

• Experience at an early-stage or high-growth startup
• Exposure to GTM strategy, sales, or customer-facing roles
• Degree from a competitive academic institution
• Prior founder, chief of staff, product, ops experience

What We Offer

• The opportunity to build something that actually makes a real impact, every day
• Six figure competitive base salary + meaningful equity
• Full health, dental, and vision insurance
• 401k
• Commuter Benefit
• Paid lunch every day
• Office-based role (NYC) with a tight-knit, mission-driven team

If you’re excited to work on hard problems with real-world stakes—and want to help shape the direction of a company from the inside out—we’d love to hear from you.
