Job Description
yasp is building the future of software development: a compiler that uses agentic AI for advanced optimization and code generation. We are a deep-tech company scaling fast, where priorities shift week over week and the work rarely comes pre-defined. We are looking for a Strategy & Operations Associate to keep the company moving as one system: turning leadership decisions into execution and making sure the right things advance, fast and with clarity. This is a hands-on, individual-contributor role. You will work directly with the CEO and the Director Finance & Operations. You will not manage a team. You own outcomes yourself, and you are expected to go beyond the brief rather than wait for one. If you want autonomy, ownership, and a front-row seat in a fast-scaling AI company, this is for you. Tasks Translate leadership decisions into clear actions, owners, and timelines Own the operating cadence: planning cycles, check-ins, and follow-ups Coordinate execution across business and technical teams Take ambiguous, cross-functional problems and drive them to a result end to end Identify bottlenecks, risks, and misalignment early and surface them clearly Reduce friction and keep priorities moving forward week over week Requirements Top-tier strategy consulting experience (e.g. MBB or a Big-4 strategy practice) combined with hands-on experience in a startup or VC. We want both, not one or the other. 2-5 years of total experience Strong academic record; a Master's degree is a plus A self-directed operator who thrives on autonomy and high ownership: you move things forward without being told how Ambitious and hands-on, willing to go the extra mile Comfortable with ambiguity and incomplete information Clear communicator who follows through Benefits Competitive salary Opportunities for professional development and growth Flexible work hours Dynamic and collaborative work environment Cutting-edge software and hardware platforms **Why join us? Ownership & Autonomy
