Role summary

Tabs is seeking a Strategy & Operations Manager to tackle high-leverage problems and initiatives, reporting to the founding team. This role balances strategic cross-functional initiatives with operational ownership of product launches and feature adoption. Responsibilities include driving ambiguous problems end-to-end, using data for decision-making, designing and executing cross-functional projects, and establishing new functions. The manager will coordinate product release readiness, manage launch cohorts, conduct post-launch retrospectives, and support product adoption programs. The ideal candidate has 4-8 years of experience in high-growth startups, B2B SaaS, AI, consulting, or finance, with a strong preference for 2+ years in a product-driven operating role. Key skills include program management, product management, data analysis, systems thinking, stakeholder management, and go-to-market strategy, with a genuine curiosity for fintech and AI.

  • We’re hiring a Strategy & Operations Manager to take on some of the highest-leverage problems and initiatives at Tabs, reporting into the founding team
  • In practice, the role splits its time across two flavors of work. The first is strategic: cross-functional initiatives, major projects and initiatives. The second is operational: owning the end-to-end coordination of product launches and ongoing feature adoption
  • Own ambiguous, high-priority problems end-to-end
  • Use data to build the analysis needed to make decisions with conviction
  • Design and run cross-functional initiatives spanning Product, GTM, Finance, Operations and other teams as needed
  • Stand up new teams or functions when we don’t yet have a dedicated owner
  • Turn one-off analyses into durable systems, playbooks, and automation so the next person doesn’t start from scratch
  • Act as a thought partner to the leadership team on questions that don’t have obvious answers
  • Drive go-live readiness across every new product or major feature release — coordinating Product, Engineering, Product Marketing, Implementation, Customer Success, and Support
  • Define and manage phased launch cohorts for betas and pilots
  • Run post-launch retrospectives and build repeatable processes and feedback loops between Product and customer-facing teams
  • Support product adoption across key product areas — flagging customers who are live but underutilizing important features
  • Partner with CS, Marketing, and Product to design and run targeted adoption programs for at-risk or low-adoption segments
  • Surface adoption signals back to Product to inform roadmap prioritization
  • Own planning and execution across 3–5 major programs at a time — spanning feature launches, customer migrations, and strategic initiatives

### Benefits

  • Unlimited PTO: You decide when and how long to take time off
  • Fully paid health insurance: Fully paid medical, dntal, and vision insurance
  • Complimentary meals: Free lunch and dinner in the office
  • Parental leave: Generous paid leave to new parents
  • Commuter benefits: Tax-free commuter benefits
  • Regular team events: We work hard and play hard- Systems thinking: you can zoom out to see the whole program and zoom in to spot exactly where things are breaking down
  • Genuine curiosity about fintech, AI, and how a modern AI company actually runs
  • Exceptional organizational instincts: you thrive with many moving pieces, surface the right information to the right people, and ensure nothing falls through the cracks
  • High ownership mentality
  • Bias toward action: you don’t need a perfect process to start making something better
  • Comfort operating at the intersection of Product/Engineering and customer-facing teams
  • Crisp written and verbal communication
  • Proven ability to drive complex, cross-functional programs to completion by leading through influence, not authority
  • 4–8 years of experience in a high-growth startup, B2B SaaS or AI (product, strategy, or operations), consulting, investment banking, or PE/VC, with a strong preference towards 2+ years of experience in a product-driven operating role
