🚀 About Qdrant
Qdrant is the open-source vector database behind the world’s most advanced AI applications. We’re the engine powering semantic search, RAG, agents, and real-time vector pipelines at scale.
We move fast. We ship relentlessly. We build what others say is impossible.
To maintain our high velocity, we’re seeking a Chief of Staff who excels in chaos, brings clarity to ambiguity, and translates strategy into execution at startup speed.
If you love being the person who just gets things done, read on.
Tasks
🧨 The Role
This isn’t an executive assistant job.
This is a force multiplier, operator, fixer, and strategist rolled into one.
You’ll work side-by-side with the CEO, accelerating everything from product decisions to team alignment to external relationships. You’ll spot problems before anyone else does, remove blockers, and ensure we’re always pointed toward the highest-leverage outcomes.
You’ll be the connective tissue of the company — the person who keeps Qdrant sharp, fast, and unstoppable.
🔥 What You’ll Own
Strategic Alignment
Turn big-picture vision into actionable, measurable plans.
Run OKRs, planning cycles, and cross-team execution like a machine.
Keep everyone aligned, accountable, and moving at full speed.
CEO Leverage
Help the CEO focus on the highest-impact work.
Prepare context, frame decisions, and lead high-stakes internal conversations.
Represent the CEO when needed — clearly, confidently, and without drama.
High-Impact Projects
Own mission-critical projects that don’t cleanly fit inside any department.
Drive product, engineering, or GTM research and initiatives.
Build processes that reduce friction and increase throughput across the whole company.
Operational Firepower
Fix fragile systems, create new ones, and streamline how Qdrant operates.
Improve hiring funnels, onboarding, communication rhythms, and cross-team transparency.
Track key metrics and deliver insights that actually drive action.
External Presence
Craft world-class materials: investor decks, board updates, strategic briefs.
Help manage ecosystem relationships, partners, and key external conversations.
