[Remote] Internal Operations Lead
Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. Prior Labs is pioneering tabular foundation models and is seeking an Internal Operations Lead to build and run internal operations that integrate with SAP while maintaining the company's independence. The role involves managing operational processes, automating workflows, and ensuring effective collaboration between Prior Labs and SAP.
Responsibilities
- Partner with SAP on the operational side of joining a global company: understand what each requirement is for, shape how it is adopted, and make sure it fits how Prior Labs works
- Map our operating needs onto SAP systems and build the processes that connect them, so we benefit from SAP's scale (global payroll, data protection, tooling) with a setup fit for a fast growing scale-up
- Build and document the internal operations that run the company day to day across Finance, Compliance, HR, Legal, and Product Ops, designing workflows that work in Linear, Slack, and email
- Translate SAP processes and requirements into clear internal guides and concrete steps the team can follow
- Automate the repetitive operational work, reaching for LLMs and similar tools first, so the Ops function scales without headcount growing in step
- Own cross-functional project management for the internal-operations side of the SAP relationship: plan and sequence the work, track commitments, deadlines, and dependencies across the wider Ops team and SAP counterparts, and drive each project to completion on both sides
Skills
- You have owned operational processes end to end at an early-stage company, building and running them yourself rather than directing a team
- You have shipped working, documented processes that a team adopted without hand-holding
- You have worked with a high growth tech company, managing large scale transformations (e.g. M&A) and shaped how its requirements landed so they worked well for both sides
- You grasp unfamiliar context fast and reason through it to a decision you can talk through clearly and calmly
- You reach for AI tools as your first move to go faster, not as a fallback
- Consulting, project management, big tech, high growth startup background of at least 5+ years
- You have operated across two or more of Finance, Compliance, HR, Legal, and Product Ops rather than specialising in one
- You have stood up automations or tooling that removed recurring manual work and let an Ops function scale without added headcount
- You have turned detailed compliance, legal, or vendor material into guides people actually followed
- You have worked with or alongside a large enterprise's internal systems (payroll, procurement, data protection, or similar at SAP scale)
- You have managed operational projects across multiple geographies and timezones
Benefits
- Most of our roles are based in one of our offices but great people come from everywhere, and in exceptional cases we're open to remote. This usually involves frequent travel to one of our offices and the whole company comes together regularly for offsites to think, build, and celebrate together.
