Chief of Staff

About the role

EQORE has systems running at customer sites in three states, a pipeline that is growing every month, and a hiring plan across sales, deployment, engineering, and finance. Customers, investors, partners, and the team all need time with our CEO, and there isn’t enough of it. This role exists to be the CEO’s right hand: take work off their plate, keep the company running to plan, and make sure what was agreed actually happens.

The job will change with the company and with whatever the CEO needs most. The core stays the same.

What you’ll do

• Operating rhythm. Help the CEO run the weekly leadership meeting, quarterly planning and goals, and board prep, and follow through on every decision.
• CEO leverage. Triage the CEO’s inbox, calendar, and priorities. Draft memos, investor updates, and internal communications. Decide what needs the CEO and what doesn’t.
• Special projects. Own cross-functional work nobody else owns: a new-market launch, a pricing overhaul, a systems migration.
• Fundraising support. Build and maintain the data room, investor pipeline, and follow-ups. Prepare materials and diligence answers.
• Board and investor relations. Prepare board decks, track action items, and handle investor reporting.
• Hiring and org building. Run or coordinate key searches, onboarding, and our early people processes.
• Metrics and reporting. Own the company dashboard and keep numbers consistent across sales, deployments, and finance.
• Gap filling. Run a function until it has a dedicated leader, such as operations, HR, or compliance.

What you’ll bring

• 3–8 years in consulting, banking, operations, or an early-stage startup.
• Excellent writing, structured thinking, and project management.
• Comfort with ambiguity: you set your own priorities and don’t wait for instructions.
• High trust and discretion. You will see everything.
• Low ego and high ownership; your influence comes from getting things done, not from a title.
• Fluency with AI tools that multiply your output, and the judgment to check their work.

Nice to have

Energy or climate experience, early-stage startup experience, board or fundraising support, or experience running sales or business operations.

Why EQORE

The future of energy is distributed. Commercial and industrial customers consume more than 65% of America’s electricity, yet less than 1% of recent battery deployments have gone to C&I sites. We are building the engine that closes that gap: not just the software that manages batteries, but the machine that sells, finances, and deploys them across the United States. Our goal is to become the largest deployer and manager of C&I energy resources in the world.

You will see the whole company from the CEO’s side of the table and have a direct hand in how it’s built.
