Business Operations Lead
Aalto
Remote job description
About Aalto:
Aalto has set out to create the modern, direct marketplace homebuyers and sellers have been craving for decades. Beginning in 2021, sellers have been able to list their homes with a flexible and no-risk process, unlocking homes for sale months earlier than traditional real estate. This leads to more amazing homes for buyers, exclusively on Aalto. Tens of thousands of buyers and sellers across the Bay Area are already using Aalto, with new, exclusive homes added hourly.
We are a distributed team of do-ers with three pillars at our core: start by listening, build community, and be direct. Learn more at aalto.com.
We'd love to see if you're a match for Aalto's highly collaborative and driven culture.
About the Role:
Aalto has been growing fast, so fast that we can't keep pace with demand.
To help seize the opportunity at hand, we're seeking a highly analytical and highly collaborative Business Operations Lead to help us scale exponentially.
It's a unique role that combines immersing in our operations, thinking holistically, a lot of SQL, working closely with our product and sales teams, as well as the rest of our growing company.
Success looks like moving quickly, understanding from first principles, identifying bottlenecks, and then creating thoughtful systems that drive KPIs automatically.
This role can be performed as fully remote or in a hybrid capacity. A majority of the Aalto team is located around the Bay area with flexibility to work from home or the office. For those located in The Bay area, we do have an office (with ample parking) as an option in the Presidio neighborhood of San Francisco, but there is no daily requirement to be present. We want to empower our employees to do their best work, whether that's collaborating in person with co-workers, focus time at home, or both! Nearly all team members work Pacific hours.
Culture:
Aalto has a values-driven culture; we prioritize hiring individuals who are aligned with those values and holding our employees accountable. Being open, honest, and candid is part of the fabric of Aalto's way of doing business. We're thorough yet nimble, good listeners and open communicators, and have built a foundation of trust, innovation, but most importantly kindness. We're slack first, we don't e-mail, and the only meetings we add to our calendars are those that are necessary to building a world-class product. We value output, not hours. If you're intrinsically motivated to revolutionize the real estate market, then you'll be in great company with people rallied behind a common goal at Aalto.
Benefits:
Aalto pays 100% of healthcare premiums with comprehensive healthcare and benefit plan, unlimited time off, flexible spending account, and generous parental leave among other benefits. We offer a competitive salary and equity for all full-time employees regardless of level.
