Explicitly requires vibe-coding proficiency and rapid prototyping with AI tools; uses ChatGPT/Claude/Perplexity/Manus/Lovable and Zapier/Make alongside ClickUp to ship AI-first workflows.

About the Role

Senior AI & Systems Lead embedded in the executive office to make AI the default operating layer of the business by designing, building, and operating AI-first systems that increase executive leverage, eliminate manual work, and scale across the company's startups. Remote, full-time role reporting to the CEO with ownership of ClickUp, AI workflows, data/knowledge architecture, and automation.

Job Description

Role

The Senior AI & Systems Lead partners directly with the CEO and executive team to modernize and operationalize AI-first systems that scale across the company and its portfolio startups. This is a hands-on role responsible for both strategy and executing end-to-end systems that replace manual work and improve decision-making, execution, and visibility.

Key Responsibilities

  • Design and maintain executive office operating systems that power the CEO and leadership team.
  • Translate fragmented inputs (calls, documents, materials) into durable workflows and execution models.
  • Continuously audit executive time, workflows, decisions, content, and execution output for inefficiencies and remove low-leverage work.
  • Architect and build AI-first workflows using LLMs, Claude Code, CodeX, OpenClaw, OpenAI tools, agents, automations, and integrations.
  • Rapidly prototype, ship, and iterate; rely on strong vibe-coding proficiency to wire tools together.
  • Use AI to produce custom presentations, spreadsheets, internal tools, and automated insight generation for executive decision-making.
  • Design systems to extract, clean, structure, and persist operational data for AI consumption; integrate meeting transcripts and status updates into a single system of truth.
  • Own ClickUp end-to-end: architecture, automations, reporting, spaces, dashboards, views, governance, adoption, and training.
  • Build AI-driven analysis workflows (weekly rollups, blocker detection, execution signals) and replace manual reporting with automated insights.
  • Aggressively experiment with new AI tools and agents; define and enforce system usage standards and adoption.

Requirements

  • Proven track record as an AI systems operator with shipped LLM-powered workflows using tools such as ChatGPT/OpenAI, Claude, Perplexity, Manus, Lovable, Zapier/Make.
  • AI-stack generalist: fluent across multiple LLM environments (e.g., Claude Code, CodeX, OpenClaw, OpenAI ecosystem) and able to select the right tool per use case.
  • Systems-first thinker who designs workflows, data flows, and leverage layers rather than one-off automations.
  • ClickUp power user with strong governance, automation, and architecture experience.
  • High-agency executor with startup-caliber speed; comfortable with ambiguity and full ownership.
  • Strong cross-functional collaboration, training, and enablement skills to drive consistent usage across teams and eliminate shadow systems.
