Senior Business Operations Partner

The Role:

At Flux, speed is existential. We're building the infrastructure for frontier AI, and doing that well requires every part of the company (hardware, software, people, finance) to move with precision and zero drag. We want every teammate focused on their highest-impact work, not lost in manual processes, context-switching, or outdated tools.

This role exists to change that.

The Business Operations Partner will design, build, and scale the systems that make Flux operate at 10× efficiency. You'll treat internal teams as your customers, understanding their workflows, mapping friction points, and using automation, AI, and well-designed systems to make things "just work." Your job is to remove obstacles before others even notice them, and to create a foundation that lets Flux scale from 50 → 150 → 300+ without losing velocity.

If you love diving into messy workflows, finding hidden bottlenecks, and turning them into elegant, self-service systems, you'll thrive here.
