Operations, Finance & HR Administrator

San Jose, CA 95126

• Full-Time | In-Office
• High-Ownership | Hands-On | Growth-Oriented

We are building the foundation for a multi-company roofing platform over the next five years.

We are not hiring a traditional "office manager.”

We are hiring the person who will bring structure, financial discipline, and administrative leadership to our back office — and help us scale intelligently.

If you thrive on organized systems, clean payroll processes, compliance accuracy, and keeping operations tight, this role is for you.

THE MISSION

You will own the administrative and financial execution engine of the company.

You will work directly with ownership and operational leadership to:

• Maintain accurate payroll and financial workflows
• Ensure HR compliance and documentation integrity
• Support operational efficiency
• Keep the office professional and organized
• Help build scalable systems for future acquisitions

This is a high-responsibility, hands-on role in a fast-moving construction environment.

Payroll & HR Administration

• Process payroll accurately and on schedule (QuickBooks/Gusto/ADP)
• Maintain timekeeping, PTO tracking, and payroll records
• Coordinate employee onboarding paperwork and personnel files
• Manage benefits enrollment and documentation
• Support workers' compensation reporting and audits
• Maintain compliance with California labor requirements
• Track safety documentation and assist with HR compliance tasks

You will not be expected to set HR policy — but you must execute it cleanly and accurately.

Financial Workflow & Accounting Support

• Manage A/P workflow using Dext and QuickBooks Online
• Organize vendor bills and prepare weekly payment batches
• Track deposits and maintain accurate logs
• Prepare invoice drafts and support billing processes
• Maintain vendor files (W9s, insurance certificates, contracts)

• Maintain organized digital and physical financial records
• Support external bookkeeper with documentation and reporting

You must be comfortable working with numbers and financial systems.

Compliance & Insurance Coordination

• Maintain master renewal calendar (licenses, DMV, insurance, fleet)
• Coordinate Workers' Compensation documentation and audits
• Manage general liability and insurance certificate requests
• Ensure compliance paperwork remains current and organized

Office & Operational Support

• Serve as the consistent in-office presence
• Manage incoming mail and check processing
• Maintain organized filing systems
• Keep the office professional, orderly, and functional
• Coordinate service vendors (internet, phone, utilities)
• Provide light operational or dispatch backup when needed

This is a hands-on role. Construction is not corporate — you must be comfortable in a trade environment.

WHO YOU ARE:

• Highly organized and detail-driven
• Comfortable processing payroll and handling confidential HR data
• Strong with numbers and administrative systems
• Calm under pressure
• Self-directed and proactive
• Low ego, high accountability
• Able to manage multiple priorities without constant supervision
• Strong communicator

You take pride in clean payroll runs, accurate records, organized systems, and a professional office environment.

GROWTH OPPORTUNITY:

As the company expands through acquisition, this role can evolve into Shared Services or Administrative Operations leadership.

You will help build the centralized back-office structure that supports multiple operating companies.

QUALIFICATIONS

Required:

• At least 3+ years’ experience in office management, payroll, or operations administration
• Experience processing payroll
• Proficiency with QuickBooks Online (AP/AR familiarity required)
• Experience handling HR documentation and compliance
• Strong organizational and multitasking skills

Preferred:

• Construction or roofing industry experience
• Familiarity with California labor laws
• Bilingual (Spanish/English) is a plus

COMPENSATION & BENEFITS

• Competitive salary: $90,000 – $110,000 (based on experience)

• Direct exposure to ownership and leadership
• Growth opportunity as the company expands

HOW TO APPLY:

Send your resume and a short note answering:

"What is the most common payroll or HR mistake you've seen in small businesses — and how would you prevent it?”

We are looking for someone who wants ownership — not just a job.

We are an equal opportunity employer, and we are an organization that values diversity. We welcome applications from all qualified candidates, including minorities and persons with disabilities.

This role is ideal for someone who loves making complex things run smoothly and wants meaningful exposure to strategy, partnerships, and startup execution. 

No two weeks look the same: one day coordinating a partner tasting, another organizing sample logistics, preparing materials for an executive meeting, or helping bring a high-profile dinner to life.

• Coordinate tastings, dinners, demos, and industry events. Note: our more involved tastings will include collaboration with a Culinary / Demo Chef.

Connect Teams & Resources 

• Coordinate across commercialization, marketing, and external creatives (designers, photographers, printers) 
• Prepare simple print and demo materials 
• Maintain organized digital files and shared assets 
• Suggest improvements and build systems for effective work and collaboration & to streamline processes, e.g. using AI tools 
• Coordinate pickups and deliveries tied to food production and events, ensuring smooth logistics across kitchens, partners, and internal teams 
• Drive materials between San Francisco, East Bay, and San Jose when needed 

Keep the Commercial Engine Running 

• Coordinate meetings and follow-ups 
• Support sales operations including customer communications, tracking 
• Maintain organized systems for opportunities, materials, and information 
• Support the commercial leadership with calendar management and scheduling, occasional travel scheduling 

Who Thrives Here 

You might be a great fit if you: 

• Have event management and/or executive assistance experience (5+ years preferred)
• Enjoy both planning and hands-on execution 
• Take pride in details others miss 
• Have a creative eye for all things hospitality 
• Naturally bring structure to fast-moving environments 
• Communicate clearly and follow through reliably 
• Have direct experience in food / hospitality 
• Care about sustainability and mission-driven work 

What We Value 

• Ownership over rigid job boundaries 
• Thoughtfulness and kindness in how we work together 
• Craft and quality in execution 
• Clear communication and reliability 
• Building something meaningful with a small, committed team 

Practical Details 

• Bay Area–based role, preferred around San Francisco, CA 
• Hybrid role: Work is remote most days, with one required weekly in-office collaboration day at our San Jose office. Presence is also required at events and as needed in-office, for example for sample shipments. 
• Driving required between San Francisco, East Bay, and San Jose 
• Occasional evening or event hours, expected 4-5 days per month 
• Ability to transport event materials and product samples 

Logistics 

• Savor offers compensation commensurate with experience, including a base salary of $120k-$150k. Additional benefits include: 
• Equity participation at a meaningful stage in Savor’s growth. 
• Participation in Savor's performance bonus program, currently under development. The program is anticipated to offer a target bonus of 10–15% of base salary, tied to individual and company performance.  
• Health, dental, and vision coverage.

About Straia

At Straia, we’re building the AI-native intelligence layer for colleges and universities.

Today, colleges run on dozens of disconnected systems, forcing staff to spend hundreds of hours manually reconciling data, compiling reports, and tracking down insights. Straia changes that. We unify institutional data and layer on AI agents that answer questions, generate insights/visualizations, and automate repetitive workflows, transforming how colleges operate.

Over time, Straia will evolve into the core intelligence layer for institutional operations, where every function, from student advising to admissions to budgeting and resource planning, is supported by collaborative AI agents that understand each institution’s unique data landscape.

We recently raised our pre-seed from a16z, Reach Capital, and JFF Ventures, and are now hiring a founding backend engineer to help build the technical backbone of how institutions interact with their data.

The Role

As a Founding Engineer at Straia, you’ll work directly with a small team including directly with our CEO (Ryan), CTO (Alan) and CPO (Nikki) to design, build, and scale the core infrastructure of our platform.

This is a 0 → 1 opportunity to shape not just the product, but the engineering culture, architecture, and trajectory of the company. You’ll ship fast, make key technical decisions, and help define how AI can power the next generation of enterprise data intelligence.

We’re specifically looking for someone who consistently raises the bar. The kind of engineer whose default speed and judgment increase the velocity of everyone around them. If you thrive when expectations are high and the pace is fast, you’ll feel right at home

What You'll Do

• Build the core platform — architect and implement services spanning data ingestion, query orchestration, and agentic AI workflows
• Ship end-to-end features across our React + Node.js + Postgres stack, integrating directly with LLMs like GPT, Gemini, and Claude
• Scale infrastructure on GCP for performance, reliability, and data security
• Collaborate with users (university data teams and administrators) to translate real problems into elegant, powerful solutions
• Lay the foundation for Straia’s engineering culture, best practices, and technical roadmap
• Prototype fast, iterate faster — your work will directly shape how education leaders experience AI in their daily decision-making

Who You Are

• 4–7 years of experience building and shipping full-stack applications, with a strong emphasis on backend systems (Node.js, TypeScript, Postgres).
• Deeply technical, with a track record of building scalable, high-quality software
• Startup-minded — you thrive in ambiguity, love building from scratch, and see constraints as creative fuel
• Mission-driven — excited to improve education through technology that makes institutions smarter, faster, and more equitable
• Collaborative and high-agency — you take initiative, value clear communication, and have the instincts of an owner, not an employee
• AI-curious or experienced — exposure to LLMs, vector databases, or prompt engineering is a plus

Our Stack

• Frontend: React + Vite
• Backend: Node.js + Express, orchestrating data and AI agent workflows
• Data Layer: Postgres + Caching for fast queries
• LLM Integration: GPT, Gemini, Claude via API
• Cloud & Infra: Hosted on GCP

Why Join Straia

• Be one of the first engineers at a venture-backed AI company redefining institutional intelligence in higher ed
• Shape the core architecture and engineering culture from day one
• Work directly with top-tier investors and advisors from a16z, Reach, and JFF Ventures
• Join a small, fast-moving team that works incredibly hard, ships fast, and still makes time for good food, laughs, and adventures — we take our work seriously, but not ourselves
• Build meaningful technology that directly impacts student success and equity across colleges nationwide

What We Offer

• Compensation: $160K–$225K + equity
• Location: San Francisco (in office 4 days a week)
• Benefits: Health (platinum insurance), dental, and vision
