The Chief of Staff will work directly with the CEO and senior leadership on some of Knit Health’s most important and least structured problems. This is a role for someone who combines exceptional analytical ability with initiative, curiosity, judgment, and a builder’s mindset. You won’t just help define what should happen; you’ll roll up your sleeves, create momentum, and help turn ideas into something the company can act on.
You’ll operate across strategy, fundraising, product, science, operations, and partnerships. At times, that means helping the CEO sharpen an emerging idea, pressure-testing what it implies, or collaborating on what the company should do next. At others, it means turning that thinking into a concrete plan, building the analysis or materials required to support a decision, bringing the right people together, and making sure the work actually gets done.
A great Chief of Staff creates structure without constraining creativity. You listen for the underlying idea, challenge assumptions, recognize second-order implications, and turn free-flowing thinking into clear decisions and executable actions. You will frequently encounter important problems before there is a defined project, owner, or solution, and you’ll be expected to develop a point of view, propose a path forward, and start moving the work ahead without waiting to be asked.
This is an early-stage company, and the role requires comfort with both high-level strategic thinking and hands-on execution. You may move from a sophisticated conversation about company strategy, fundraising, or investor positioning to an operational problem that simply needs someone capable to take ownership of it.
You’ll work closely with an accomplished, highly collaborative leadership team spanning healthcare, AI, research, product, and business. The expectation is that you can engage with them as a thoughtful partner while also helping the organization move faster.
