Business Operations

HUD is building infrastructure to create RL training data and evals for frontier AI agents, as well as a marketplace to sell these to frontier labs through the HUD marketplace. Our platform is used by frontier labs, Fortune 500 companies, and startups. We’ve raised $16M from top VCs and were YC W25.

We’re looking for a Business Operations generalist to help build and run HUD’s operating systems. You’ll work closely with our Chief of Staff and founders across hiring, finance, marketing and events, and cross-functional special projects.

This role is an exceptional learning opportunity for an early-career generalist who already has some early-stage startup experience. The work is both extremely fast-paced and extremely wide-ranging, giving this person unique access to every part of the company. The Chief of Staff is also personally committing to mentoring this person for success at HUD and beyond.

• 3–4 years of experience, including 2 years in management consulting (MBB or top-tier boutique) and 1–2 years at an early-stage startup in business operations or strategy and operations

• Demonstrated experience taking ambiguous projects from initial problem structuring through implementation, with an eye on building scalable systems instead of point solutions

• Strong organization and attention to detail, with the judgment to prioritize competing demands and keep commitments on track

• Excellent written and verbal communication skills—please link a writing sample

• High agency balanced with good judgement on when to ask for more input or help to get things done on time

• Comfort moving between strategic questions and everyday operational work, and learning unfamiliar parts of the business quickly

• Experience using AI to automate workflows, not just for research or summarization

• Built a system or process from scratch and iterated it as the company grows

• Experience working with technical teams or ability to learn technical topics quickly at a conceptual level

• Comfort working with leadership internally and externally, and confidence in voicing your thoughts in such rooms—especially in dissent

We prioritize technical aptitude and learning potential over years of experience. Motivated candidates are encouraged to apply even if they don't meet all criteria.
