Job Details

About us

  • At Sierra, we’re creating a platform to help businesses build better, more human customer experiences with AI. We are primarily an in-person company based in San Francisco, with growing offices in Atlanta, New York, and London.
  • We are guided by a set of values that are at the core of our actions and define our culture: Trust, Customer Obsession, Craftsmanship, Intensity, and Family. These values are the foundation of our work, and we are committed to upholding them in everything we do.
  • Our co-founders are Bret Taylor and Clay Bavor. Bret currently serves as Board Chair of OpenAI. Previously, he was co-CEO of Salesforce (which had acquired the company he founded, Quip) and CTO of Facebook. Bret was also one of Google's earliest product managers and co-creator of Google Maps. Before founding Sierra, Clay spent 18 years at Google, where he most recently led Google Labs. Earlier, he started and led Google’s AR/VR effort, Project Starline, and Google Lens. Before that, Clay led the product and design teams for Google Workspace.

  • Master Sierra’s daily operations, identify inefficiencies and improve our capabilities by optimizing existing processes and introducing new ones
  • Drive end-to-end strategic projects such as building business cases and execution plans for new markets, performing financial and data analysis on product performance, and developing frameworks for annual planning
  • Act as a thought partner to leaders across the company to improve business planning, performance & execution
  • Coordinate with Sales, Marketing, Product, and Engineering teams to ensure seamless execution of cross-functional projects
  • Wear many hats! In this unique role, you’ll have the opportunity to define your future by gaining broad exposure to all aspects of Sierra’s operations

What you’ll bring

  • 2-4 years of experience in management consulting, corporate strategy, or business operations
  • Proficiency in data analysis tools (e.g., Excel, Google Sheets) and experience with data visualization tools (e.g., Tableau, Looker, or Power BI)
  • A detail-oriented, methodical, and process-driven mentality that is focused on both accuracy and efficiency
  • Demonstrated ability to manage multiple projects, prioritize effectively, and meet deadlines
  • A proactive mindset with the ability to navigate ambiguity, drive and execute initiatives, and deliver results in a fast-paced, dynamic environment
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to distill complex ideas and problems into straightforward, actionable recommendations, especially to executives

Even better…

  • Familiarity with CRM platforms (e.g., Salesforce, HubSpot) and marketing automation tools
  • Previous 0-1 startup or operational experience

Our values

  • Trust: We build trust with our customers with our accountability, empathy, quality, and responsiveness. We build trust in AI by making it more accessible, safe, and useful. We build trust with each other by showing up for each other professionally and personally, creating an environment that enables all of us to do our best work.
  • Customer Obsession: We deeply understand our customers’ business goals and relentlessly focus on driving outcomes, not just technical milestones. Everyone at the company knows and spends time with our customers. When our customer is having an issue, we drop everything and fix it.
  • Craftsmanship: We get the details right, from the words on the page to the system architecture. We have good taste. When we notice something isn’t right, we take the time to fix it. We are proud of the products we produce. We continuously self-reflect to continuously self-improve.
  • Intensity: We know we don’t have the luxury of patience. We play to win. We care about our product being the best, and when it isn’t, we fix it. When we fail, we talk about it openly and without blame so we succeed the next time.
  • Family: We know that balance and intensity are compatible, and we model it in our actions and processes. We are the best technology company for parents. We support and respect each other and celebrate each other’s personal and professional achievements.

What we offer

We want our benefits to reflect our values and offer the following to full-time employees:

  • Flexible (Unlimited) Paid Time Off
  • Medical, Dental, and Vision benefits for you and your family
  • Life Insurance and Disability Benefits
  • Retirement Plan (e.g., 401K, pension) with Sierra match
  • Parental Leave

  • Lunch, as well as delicious snacks and coffee to keep you energized

Be you, with us

We're working to bring the transformative power of AI to every organization in the world.
