Chief of Staff

SnapMagic is on a mission to revolutionize the $1.3 trillion electronics industry. Our platform empowers engineers to build faster by making it easy to find and use circuit schematics and CAD models.

Our existing platform (previously known as SnapEDA) is the leading library tool for electrical engineers, helping 2 million engineers each year design products like drones, electric cars, and satellites 10x faster. We are now building SnapMagic Copilot, which is built on a proprietary dataset of over 10 million components, schematic symbols, and footprints created by SnapMagic.

As we scale aggressively, we’re building a culture of excellence, speed, and ownership — and we’re looking for a Chief of Staff who thrives in a fast-moving environment where impact is the name of the game.

Requirements

What You’ll Be Doing

As SnapMagic’s Chief of Staff, you’ll be the CEO’s right hand — driving the operating rhythm, fostering alignment, and ensuring follow-through across the organization. This is not an “observer” or “coordinator” role. You’ll personally drive critical projects, ensure our teams stay accountable to outcomes, and solve strategic challenges that unlock growth. You’ll be embedded across the business — collaborating with product, go-to-market, engineering, and ops to identify risks, resolve blockers, and push initiatives over the line. This is a unique opportunity to sit at the center of the company, with a mandate to make the company faster, sharper, and more effective.

1. Drive Alignment + Accountability

• Ensure company goals (OKRs/KPIs) are clear, measurable, and tracked rigorously

• Partner with team leads to reinforce accountability, identify blockers, and drive forward key initiatives

• Run weekly leadership syncs, All Hands, Manager Meetings, Fix-it Fridays, and retros — continuously optimizing our operating cadence
  

2. Unblock and Accelerate Execution

• Dive into cross-functional challenges and work hands-on with teams to remove bottlenecks

• Help projects move from “stuck” to “shipped” through focused coordination and direct problem-solving

• Surface and mitigate risks before they escalate

• Lead high-priority initiatives that don’t have a clear home — from new revenue experiments to pricing, org design, or system implementations

3. Leverage the CEO

• Prioritize and push forward the CEO’s top initiatives — including hiring, pricing, and strategic partnerships

• Manage board/investor updates, coordinate exec communications, and keep the company aligned around the vision

• Assist with inbox triage as needed to protect time for deep work and strategic focus

4. Champion Culture + Communication

• Reinforce a performance-oriented, high-trust culture

• Own internal communications and messaging — from All Hands to key updates and rituals

• Run team offsites, cultural events, onboarding programs, and internal training initiatives

5. Support Talent + Team Development

• Partner with hiring managers to ensure a sharp recruiting process.

• Monitor team performance and morale; design comp ladders, run suggestion boxes, and manage leadership development programs

• Cross-Functional Leader: You’ve worked across departments and know how to build trust and drive alignment
