Founders Associate

Founders Associate WHAT WE DO Rillet serves accounting and finance teams. Our customers are the financial brains of their companies. Our job is to help them run the numbers with impossible speed, accuracy, and insight. Rillet is an AI-native ERP that can drive a zero-day close. We are different because of our unified source-of-truth data model, hundreds of best-in-class native integrations (Stripe, Ramp, Salesforce, etc), automated & auditable workflows, multi-entity consolidation, and quickly expanding army of specialized AI agents (e.g., accrual, audit, P&L flux, board decks, etc). These earn us a consistently perfect customer satisfaction score https://www.g2.com/products/rillet/reviews. High-growth AI customers like Mercor, Windsurf, and Function Health love our ship velocity, because their financial stack needs to scale as quickly as they do. This huge market is ours to take. We have raised $100M from leading investors (including Sequoia, a16z, Iconiq, Oak HC/FT, and First Round) to help everyone run their numbers at the speed of AI. WHO WE ARE Rillet’s pace is not for everyone. Intelligence is table stakes. To succeed here, you need extreme speed, agency, and flexibility. Successful Rilleteers do not wait for assignments. They internalize a mission, design a strategy, and bring back results that are better, faster, and more creative than a manager could have asked for. Work revolves around our customers. Successful Rilleteers are energized by delivering the most important things, even those that weren’t in the original plan. In this role, you do not need to be an accountant. But you do need to appreciate the value that our customers can create for their own company when we equip them with the perfect financial tools. Successful Rilleteers love powering the financial core of the world’s fastest-growing companies. WHO WE NEED Rillet is looking for a Founders' Associate to work directly with the CEO and Chief of Staff. You will be the connective tissue that keeps high-priority work moving — spotting roadblocks early, solving them before they escalate, and ensuring nothing falls through the cracks. You will operate across a wide range of workstreams simultaneously, supporting the Chief of Staff with analytical horsepower on strategic projects, helping design and improve internal processes, and supporting the CEO day-to-day from drafting communications to making sure key initiatives reach completion. You will need to be highly organized and comfortable with frequent context switching. One hour you're in a spreadsheet modeling a business case. The next you're drafting a note on behalf of the CEO. The next you're figuring out why a cross-functional project stalled and fixing it. This is a high-output role. You will work hard, move fast, and be held to a high bar. In return, you will get unparalleled exposure, accelerated growth, and a front-row seat to building a company. We're looking for a teammate who value in-person collaboration and is within commutable distance of our NYC or San Francisco offices (or willing to relocate). Team members are required to work in-office Tuesdays and Thursdays, plus one additional flexible in-office day. WHAT YOU'LL DO - Own Claude at Rillet – become our internal Claude expert.
