About the role
About Atomic
Atomic is a venture studio and venture capital firm that builds and scales companies from the ground up. We partner with exceptional founders to launch transformative businesses across industries including AI, fintech, healthcare, consumer, enterprise software, and more. We've launched and scaled more than 20 companies including Hims & Hers, Exowatt, Replicant, Found, Golden Child, and Homebound.
Position Overview
We’re looking for a Chief of Staff to work directly alongside our founder and Managing Partner, and give him meaningful leverage across everything he touches. The firm moves fast across a large and varied portfolio; this person makes sure the most important things move forward, that nothing critical falls through the cracks, and that the CEO’s time and attention go where they matter most.
This role is both highly strategic and deeply hands-on. You'll operate as a thought partner and a doer - translating priorities into action, owning follow-through from start to finish, managing the flow of information and communication, and serving as a trusted bridge across the firm, its companies, and outside partners.
This is also an AI-native role by design, and we expect it to evolve continuously. The best person in this seat instinctively uses AI to take work off their own plate - automating the routine so they can keep moving up to higher-leverage work. The job you start with shouldn't be the job you're doing a year from now.
The best version of this person becomes genuinely indispensable, earns more responsibility over time, and builds a deep, lasting partnership with the firm and our portfolio.
Responsibilities
- Be a key point of leverage for the Founder and Managing Partner across the full range of his work, internal and external - taking things off his plate and extending his reach.
- Identify the few things that matter most and drive them home - taking the firm's most important projects and initiatives to timely, high-quality completion, and owning the outcome rather than just the to-do list.
- Be the forcing function for decisions and action. Surface what needs deciding, put a clear question in front of whoever owns it, and press until it's resolved.
