About Future Works

Future Works is a US-focused, AI-native professional services firm building operational AI and data systems. Our foundation beliefs are simple: optimization lowers need for resources, which increases sustainability and resilience. We are a team of "Time Benders" on a mission to collapse timelines to operational transformation of high footprint companies in energy, real estate, data and beyond. Together, we master velocity.

We achieve our mission by building flawless, AI-powered systems. Our technology is already far more advanced than that of boutique services firms, but we are only getting started and the road from here leads to becoming world's best Service-as-Software company. Regardless of the specific role, our ideal candidate will always have a keen interest in building symbiotic human-AI systems both individually and for teams; high energy, high agency and a certain passion for bending time.

The Role

We are seeking an Integrator to serve as the operational engine of Future Works. While our Lead Architects and C-Suite design our cutting-edge systems, your role is to ensure they are adopted, optimized, and ruthlessly executed. You are the "High-Velocity Operator"—part Chief of Staff, part Product Leader, and part Talent Quality and Culture Guardian. You will partner closely with the technical leadership to build a low-error, high-output environment. You are not just a manager; you are a technical operator with a hacker mindset who loves optimization and holding teams accountable to greatness. This is a high-impact role that can and will evolve into a COO or similar senior leadership position for the right candidate.

Responsibilities

• Proliferate the operating system - You will take the systems you co-designed with the Architects and ensure they live and breathe within the team. You are responsible for compliance, adoption, and the continuous refinement of our "Way of Working."

• Drive radical accountability - You will install and manage the cadence of the business. You are the one who ensures targets are met, metrics are accurate, and that every team member is performing at their peak potential.

• Curate a high-performance culture - You will be instrumental in hiring, onboarding, and performance management. You will track "happiness metrics" alongside performance KPIs, ensuring we retain elite talent by keeping them challenged and supported.

• Optimize work velocity - Working with the CTO, you will identify bottlenecks in real-time. You will monitor time-tracking and task-completion data to spot friction and eliminate it immediately.

• Bridge the gap - You act as the connective tissue between the visionary leadership (CEO/CTO) and the delivery team, translating high-level strategy into daily tactical execution.

Qualifications & Candidate Profile

We are looking for a "Technical Operator" who fits a unique profile:

• The hacker mindset: You might be a former Startup CTO, a Technical Product Manager, or a People person who loves operations. You understand AI workflows, agents, low-code, and API integrations enough to know how work should flow.

• The mastery of standards: You have high standards and aren't afraid to hold people to them. You understand that "smooth and fast" requires discipline.

• The mastery of culture: You understand that systems run on people. You are emotionally intelligent and capable of driving performance while maintaining a culture of joy and psychological safety.

Required Experience

• Leadership at scale - Demonstrable experience managing and holding accountable high-performance teams of at least 20 people, with a clear appetite and strategy to help scale the organization to 200 and beyond.

• High agency & rapid learning - You must be a fast, hungry learner. We are building cutting-edge workflows in uncharted territory; you must have the agency to fill in any gaps and master new systems as we evolve.

• Modern operational tool stack - Deep, hands-on expertise with the tools that run a modern, remote company, including:

  • ClickUp v4 (or similar advanced project management software, with ability to learn ClickUp v4 including Super Agents to a self-sufficient leadership degree within 30 days)

  • Google Workspace (management, modern Meet features)

  • Excellent, granular time tracking systems

• Methodology & framework fluency - Proven, practical experience with:

  • Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS / Traction) sufficient to act as the "Integrator."

  • Hands-on AI and agentic workflows (e.g., custom GPTs, agentic execution).

• Values - A deep commitment to our values of being Selfless, Candid, and Pursuing Excellence.

Natural Ability Alignment

• We strive to create a team of individuals collaborating on exceptional levels that's why it's important for all leaders at the company to know each other's strengths and weaknesses

• This is a key role for us, we will require CliftonStrengths 34 test results to understand our alignment and your natural abilities we can foster, to help prioritize wok in flow states

• Results in other tests (Myers Briggs, Enneagram etc.) are a big plus
