About the role

🚀 Founding Operations

Spur is transforming the software testing landscape—powered by AI and driven by a relentless commitment to delighting customers. Founded by Yale alums with backgrounds from Figma and DeepMind, and backed by leading investors including Y Combinator, First Round Capital, Neo, Pear VC, and Conviction, Spur is reimagining QA from first principles. We’re already enabling some of the fastest-growing engineering teams in the world to accelerate their pace and enhance their user experience.

As our first Operations hire, you'll work directly with our CEO and co-founders, taking ownership of high-impact projects across marketing, sales, and go-to-market (GTM) strategy. This is a high-visibility, high-growth opportunity to get in early and shape how Spur operates day-to-day—while learning what it takes to build a fast-growing startup from scratch.

✨ What You'll Do

  • Own and amplify Spur’s voice: Manage and grow our LinkedIn and Twitter presence, crafting engaging narratives that resonate deeply with our audiences.

  • Help execute GTM strategy: Partner closely with the CEO to operationalize strategic initiatives and track progress across customer acquisition efforts.

  • Support sales pipeline: Source, qualify, and nurture high-value leads, helping Spur convert interest into impact.

  • Run ops behind the scenes: Plan events, coordinate logistics, and ensure Spur shows up with polish—whether at a major conference or a cozy dinner.

  • Build collateral: Work with the design team to develop sales decks, marketing one-pagers, and internal docs that keep the team aligned.

🌟 You're Perfect for this Role If You:

  • Thrive in ambiguity: You love the challenge of building something new and are comfortable navigating through uncharted territory.

  • Are strategically curious: You proactively seek out opportunities to improve how things run and how the team shows up externally.

  • Have a knack for storytelling: Whether it’s a social post or a presentation deck—you can craft messages that stick.

  • Enjoy connecting people: You love community building and get energy from helping others feel seen and supported.

  • Can execute swiftly and thoughtfully: You're driven, organized, and adept at turning ideas into action.

🎯 Bonus Points

  • Previous experience in startups, consulting, or venture capital.

  • Background in marketing, business ops, or community building.

  • Passion for technology, AI, and building something from the ground up.
