JOB TYPE Full-Time, On-Site

COMPANY DESCRIPTION

Vibrant Building Technologies is an innovative hardware and software company building the next generation of home health technology. Our systems combine advanced sensing, ventilation, filtration, and intelligent software to actively manage the environments people live in. We are reinventing one of the most overlooked systems in the modern home, transforming HVAC from a passive mechanical appliance into intelligent infrastructure that continuously improves health, comfort, and performance.

Vibrant is led by a founder who also oversees a portfolio of complementary operating businesses across real estate development, construction, design, and home technology. These businesses are intentionally built to work together, forming a vertically integrated platform focused on a single goal: developing, designing, building, and equipping the healthiest, highest-performing homes and real estate in the world.

ROLE DESCRIPTION

We are looking for a Chief of Staff & Head of Strategic Initiatives to serve as a force multiplier for the CEO and COO.

Approximately 80% of this role is focused on Vibrant Building Technologies. The remaining time supports cross-functional strategic initiatives across the CEO and COO's other operating businesses in real estate, design, and technology.

This person will work directly between the CEO and COO on a daily basis — translating vision into structured initiatives, driving execution on complex projects, and ensuring that the highest-priority work moves forward with speed and clarity.

This is not a coordination or scheduling role. It is a high-output operator position built for someone who is hungry, moves fast, and thrives when the path forward is not fully defined. The right person uses AI tools fluently as a core part of how they work, operates with a high sense of urgency, and produces at a level that consistently exceeds what most people think is possible in the time available.

If you need a clear job description, a defined process, and a stable environment to do your best work, this role is not for you. If ambiguity energizes you and high output is just how you operate, keep reading.

RESPONSIBILITIES

Vibrant Building Technologies — Primary Focus

• Work directly with the CEO and COO to drive Vibrant's most critical strategic and operational initiatives
• Translate founder vision into actionable plans with clear ownership and timelines
• Identify operational bottlenecks and implement systems that improve execution speed
• Coordinate across hardware, software, manufacturing, and go-to-market workstreams
• Prepare strategy briefs, internal memos, and presentations for leadership
• Leverage AI tools to accelerate research, analysis, writing, and decision support
• Support new venture evaluation, partnerships, and expansion opportunities as Vibrant scales

Cross-Company Initiatives — Supporting Role

• Drive select cross-functional projects spanning the broader portfolio of operating businesses
• Serve as the connective tissue between the CEO and COO on priorities that span multiple companies
• Conduct research and analysis for new opportunities across real estate, design, and technology
• Ensure high-priority cross-company initiatives have structure, ownership, and momentum

WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE — FIRST 12 TO 18 MONTHS

• The CEO and COO spend more time on the work only they can do at Vibrant
• Strategic initiatives that previously stalled are moving with consistency and momentum
• Vibrant's cross-functional projects have clear owners, timelines, and accountability
• AI tools are being used across the organization to compress timelines and improve output quality
• Leadership has a trusted operator who can be handed any high-priority problem and run with it
• Cross-company initiatives are handled with the same speed and clarity as Vibrant-specific work

YOU MIGHT BE A FIT IF

• You are hungry — not content, not coasting, and genuinely motivated to do some of the best work of your career here
• You thrive in fast-moving, high-output environments and find ambiguity energizing rather than paralyzing
• You use AI tools — Claude, ChatGPT, Perplexity, and others — as a natural part of how you research, write, analyze, and build
• You have taken ambiguous, complex problems and turned them into structured plans that actually get executed
• You are comfortable working directly with founders and senior leadership and know how to operate at that level without hand-holding
• You write and communicate with precision — your memos, briefs, and presentations make decisions easier, not harder
• You produce at a high level and take ownership seriously — you do not need problems to be fully defined before you start solving them
• You want proximity to how a high-growth technology company is built and led, not just a seat in a single department

You will likely thrive here if you are the type of person who sees an unstructured, high-stakes initiative and immediately starts thinking about how to build the plan, align the people, and get it moving — and then does it faster than anyone expected.

Bonus Skills — Not Required But Genuinely Useful:

• Engineering background or technical fluency in hardware, software, or systems design
• Understanding of real estate development — how projects are financed, entitled, designed, and built
• Familiarity with construction — how projects are managed, sequenced, and delivered
• Ability to read and interpret technical documents, drawings, or specifications across disciplines
• Experience working across both physical and digital product environments simultaneously

QUALIFICATIONS

Required:

• Proficient and proactive use of AI tools as a core part of how you work
• Exceptional structured thinking and problem-solving ability
• Proven ability to operate independently in ambiguous, fast-moving environments
• Strong written and verbal communication skills
• High personal output — demonstrated track record of getting a lot done with urgency and quality
• Experience managing multiple high-priority projects simultaneously

Strongly Preferred:

• Experience working closely with founders or senior executives in a similar capacity
• Background in hardware, technology, or early-stage company environments
• Exposure to real estate development, construction, or design businesses
• Comfort moving between a primary company focus and broader organizational initiatives

About Serve Freight

Serve Freight is a growing freight brokerage specializing in high-stakes, time-sensitive, and complex shipments. We are building a multi-division logistics platform, with a freight brokerage that runs like a machine. We need someone who can help operate the machine, own its performance, and ensure every team member knows exactly how to run their part of it.

The Role

As the Head of Brokerage Operations, you will play a central role in scaling Serve Freight's operational infrastructure and execution quality. You will work directly alongside the CEO and leadership team to build, document, and run the systems that power every function in the company.

Your primary job is building the internal engine that makes everything work seamlessly: SOPs, process flow maps, training programs, operational playbooks, KPI ownership, and accountability systems across sales, carrier sales, and operations support teams.

This role is for an operator who doesn’t just build the engine but can squeeze every ounce of horsepower out of it for consistent results. You are comfortable recording a Loom walkthrough for track and trace, designing a process flow map in Miro, pulling a report on speed-to-quote, and coaching a team member on performance standards all in the same afternoon.

Role and Responsibilities

• Own and continuously improve the end-to-end operational workflow, from quoting through delivery, identifying bottlenecks, eliminating inefficiencies, and driving measurable outcomes across the brokerage.
• Design, document, and implement SOPs, process flow maps, and operational playbooks that create consistency, reduce errors, and enable the team to scale without sacrificing quality.
• Build and maintain training and development materials for all sales and operations staff, ensuring every team member has clear guidance, knows the standard, and can execute independently.
• Interface with and provide hands-on operational leadership to the sales, carrier sales and operations support team, setting expectations, running quality control, and driving continuous improvement.
• Own internal KPIs and outcomes, proactively surfacing issues and executing fixes before they become customer and/or carrier facing problems.
• Leverage and optimize tools and systems, to include but not limited to Turvo, Hubspot, Miro, Notion, Loom and Highway, to improve process efficiency, data accuracy, and team workflows.
• Collaborate directly with the CEO and leadership team on strategic planning and the operational foundation for Serve Freight's next phase of growth.
• Support the buildout of a scalable freight brokerage, including contributing to hiring decisions, onboarding frameworks, and performance standards as the company grows.

What You Will Do

First 30 Days

• Shadow every role (AM, AE, carrier sales, track/trace, admin). Document strengths, gaps, and bottlenecks for each function.
• Identify the top 10 processes needing SOPs first, ranked by both revenue impact and employee experience impact.
• Monitor baseline operational KPIs such as time-to-quote, quote-to-book, on-time-delivery and gross margin.
• Begin building relationships with the sales, carrier sales and operations support teams. Understand current workflows, communication rhythms, and quality gaps.
• Be active in the weekly operating cadence, contributing operational insights and surfacing improvement opportunities.
• Begin building interview rubrics, scoring criteria, and onboarding frameworks for upcoming hires.
• Pull initial snapshots of operational performance: volume by account, margin by lane, team productivity, and carrier performance to support leadership decision-making.

Days 31-90

• Build and publish the first ~10 SOPs with Loom walkthroughs. Begin building the training library for all sales, carrier sales, and operations support staff.
• Complete an end-to-end company-wide process flow map focusing on speed to cash. Identify every handoff, bottleneck, and failure point.
• Run the first monthly performance reviews using real data and the KPI framework.
• Design and document a structured onboarding program for all future operations and carrier sales hires.
• Define minimum activity requirements, performance tiers, and escalation protocols for the operations team and carrier sales.
• Build a live performance dashboard so the team and leadership have real-time visibility into operational KPIs.
• Deliver a clean operations report for leadership: volume trends, margin by customer, team productivity metrics, and bottleneck status. Reporting and operational analysis owned by you.
• Audit the current Turvo TMS setup: identify configuration gaps, unused features, and integration opportunities that support the SOP and automation rollout.
• Transition into direct operational leadership of the overseas team, with clear expectations, regular check-ins, and quality control cadence in place.

Days 91-180

• All core SOPs complete (~20+). Loom library and training materials built. Process flow maps finalized and published.
• Deploy 2-3 automations that eliminate manual work and reduce error rates.
• Launch incentive programs tied to operational KPIs.
• CEO removed from weekly operational meetings. Cadence runs independently under your leadership.
• Operations reporting runs on a recurring cadence. Leadership has a standing data package for strategic planning.
• Begin scoping operational playbooks for future division expansions.
• Training and development materials are complete, maintained, and actively used by all operations and carrier sales staff.
• Operations support teams operating under your direct leadership with documented workflows, performance standards, and escalation protocols.

What You Bring

Required

• 3-7 years in the freight brokerage or logistics industry. You have seen inside a brokerage and understand the full workflow from quote to delivery.
• Strong process documentation skills. You have built SOPs, training programs, process flow maps, or operational playbooks before, not just followed them.
• Comfortable pulling data and building reports. You do not need to be a strategist, but you need to be fluent in operational, carrier, and revenue metrics and able to surface what matters.
• Experience with TMS platforms (Turvo preferred) and CRM tools (HubSpot preferred).
• Proficiency with DAT, Highway, and standard freight coverage and compliance tools.
• Proficiency with Notion, Loom, Miro, Google Workspace, and basic spreadsheet modeling.

• Experience building or leading training and onboarding programs.

Preferred

• Experience building operational dashboards or recurring performance reports.
• Background in process automation (Zapier, Make, or TMS-native tools).
• Experience in a high-growth or founder-led environment, wearing multiple hats.
• Exposure to project logistics, over-dimensional/overweight freight, or specialized/high-stakes shipments.

The majority of the team is currently co-located in Boston, MA, with some remote roles. Opportunity for a remote role is dependent on the candidate and hiring manager approval.

About the Role

We are hiring our first Product Manager to own and scale the software experience that connects our wearable hardware to our members’ daily lives. This is not a feature-factory role. You will combine strategic thinking with hands-on execution to build engaging, habit-forming digital health experiences grounded in biometrics and real physiological data. You will work directly with the CEO, engineering, data science, and design to define roadmap, improve product operations, and translate complex sensor data into simple, meaningful insights. You will help establish the product function - including prioritization frameworks, release discipline, experimentation and user interview rigor, and product analytics foundations, all while shipping high-quality mobile and web features at a steady cadence.

Responsibilities

• Own the Software Roadmap and Development Lifecycle
• Partner with the CEO to shape and continuously refine the software roadmap, balancing near-term member value with long-term vision.
• Lead end-to-end product development: problem framing → wireframes → specs → sprint execution → QA → release.
• Write clear, well-scoped product tickets that reduce ambiguity and accelerate engineering velocity.
• Triage issues beyond surface-level symptoms by investigating root causes, proposing hypotheses, and suggesting solutions.
• Wearing and using the wearable daily to form first-person opinions on product priorities is part of the job.
• Manage release operations (Dev → Staging → Production), feature flags, and UAT.
• Define hypothesis-driven success criteria for each release, and evaluate features and usage.
• Lead the product marketing and GTM lifecycle of releases, partnering closely with Marketing.
• Build and refine light, scalable product operations processes to maintain clarity and alignment.
• Establish product strategy rhythms (quarterly planning, roadmap reviews, prioritization frameworks).
• Stay ahead of the competitive landscape in digital health, wearables, and remote diagnostics to inform future product strategy.
• Champion the User Experience
• Translate Lumia’s wearable capabilities into a cohesive, differentiated mobile experience.
• Deeply engage with members and patient communities to validate feature definitions and uncover unmet needs.
• Apply behavioral science principles to design habit-forming features, thoughtful in-app copy, and personalized experiences.
• Partner closely with Algorithm and Data Science teams to translate time-series biometric data and ML outputs into understandable, trustworthy insights.
• Define and track core KPIs (daily active wearers, retention, engagement, satisfaction).
• Instrument features and build dashboards, be able to define product analytics and maintain them.
• Partner closely with Support and Research to understand needs and build for success.

Qualifications

• 5 - 7 years of software product management experience.
• Strong mobile app product experience (iOS, Android, or cross-platform).
• Meaningful experience in wearables, biometrics, digital health, or health-tech strongly preferred.
• Experience building products that integrate with hardware or sensor-driven data.
• Demonstrated success shipping engaging, data-driven consumer products.

Required Skills

• Comfortable working with data and analytics as a product and collaborating with ML / algorithm teams.
• Familiar with core data science concepts (training/test sets, statistical significance, correlation, etc.).

Preferred Skills

• Thrive in ambiguity and bring structure to chaos.
• Operate with high ownership and accountability.
• Care deeply about clarity, prioritization, and execution quality.
• Motivated by impact and craftsmanship over titles.

Benefits Packages

• Equity upside
• Retirement plan (401k)
• Health, dental, and vision insurance reimbursement
• Commuter benefits
• Pastry Fridays

Interview Process

• Introductory Conversation (30 minutes)
• A conversation with the CEO to discuss your background, what excites you about Lumia, and high-level expectations for the role.

• Product Deep Dive (60 minutes)
• A slide-based presentation to stakeholders focused on a specific effort where:
• You detail what you’ve shipped (strategy, tradeoffs, metrics, what you’d do differently)
• How you approached an ambiguous problem space
• How you prioritized and made decisions under constraints
• Case Exercise (live: 60 min prep, 60 min together)
• You’ll be given some loose thoughts on an opportunity or idea and asked to bring initial structure, thinking, and proposal to the table for discussion with the team. We will email the scenario about 1 hour
