BizOps Associate at Pluralis Research

Job description

Overview Pluralis Research carries out foundational research on Protocol Learning: multi-participant training of foundation models where no single participant has, or can ever obtain, a full copy of the model. The purpose of Protocol Learning is to facilitate the creation of community-trained and community-owned frontier models with self-sustaining economics. As a Business Operations (BizOps) Associate, you'll build up to owning end-to-end projects across go-to-market, operations, and “the 100 other broken things” that need fixing in a startup. One day, you’ll be managing campaigns directly with our CEO, the next you’ll be fixing a broken integration or engaging with contributors. This is by no means an easy gig, but it is the best entry point into a startup one could ask for - exposure to all facets of an AI business, working direct with the exec team at a time of rapid growth. Responsibilities • GTM Execution: You want to own and drive go-to-market strategy and execution - supporting our growth and partnerships initiatives. • Operational Excellence: Build and maintain operational infrastructure: processes, tooling, reporting. You find something broken, you relish in fixing it. • Strategic Projects: Exposure to strategic projects across partnerships, community, marketing and ecosystem development. • Business Ops: Directly support our founder & CoS in day to day operations of the business. • High Agency: Pick up and run with whatever is the most important task on any given week. What we’re looking for • In General: 1-2 years of experience in management consulting (tier-1), high-growth startup operations, or venture capital. • High Agency: Demonstrated bias toward action. You default to doing, not asking for permission. • Strong analytical toolkit: comfortable building models, pulling apart data, and synthesising findings into clear recommendations. • Excellent written and verbal communication . You can draft a professional memo and rally an executive team behind it. • Genuine interest in AI : Whether current models, decentralised systems, or frontier technology. You may be non-technical, but you're curious enough to go deeper than the average person. Bonus Points • Show us what you tinker with that's AI related on weekends • Experience with highly complex technical infrastructure • Highly succinct in actions and impact Compensation & Benefits • Competitive base salary. • Equity that represents meaningful ownership in an early stage startup • Remote-first culture • Regular cadence of offsites and opportunity to work in the US • Direct access to the founder and exposure to every function of the business. NOTE: This role is only open to candidates with full working rights and based in Australia. Recruiters, please do not reach out - we have this role covered. Backed by Union Square Ventures and other tier-1 investors, we’re a world-class, deeply technical team of ML researchers. Pluralis is unapologetically ideological. We view the world as a better place if we are able to implement what we are attempting, and Protocol Learning as the only plausible approach to preventing a handful of massive corporations monopolising model development, access and release, and achieving massive economic capture. If this resonates, please apply.
