Summary Generated by Built In

Triumph is looking for a Chief of Staff to partner directly with our VP of Engineering. This is a high-impact, execution-focused role for someone who thrives in ambiguity, moves fast, and knows how to get things done across a complex organization. You'll be the connective tissue between engineering and the rest of the company owning projects, filling gaps, and making sure nothing falls through the cracks.

You'll report directly to the VP of Engineering and will help us build the operational foundation that lets our engineering org scale. Most paths into tech require years of technical experience. This one doesn't. If you're analytically sharp, operationally strong, and ready to bet on yourself in a new environment, this role gives you a front-row seat to how a high-growth engineering org operates and the autonomy to make a real impact from day one.

What You'll Do

  • Take on special projects across the engineering org where ownership is ambiguous or bandwidth is thin.

  • Identify gaps before they become problems and build the systems or relationships needed to close them.

  • Serve as the connective tissue between engineering and the rest of the company. Identify where teams aren't aligned, closing the gaps, and keeping the VP of Engineering informed on where to focus.

  • Own and manage vendor relationships including existing and new. Ensuring we're getting the most out of our contracts and identifying where there's room to negotiate or consolidate.

  • Support recruiting operations by helping run engineering onsites and keeping the hiring process aligned with engineering's needs.

  • Own the planning and execution of recurring team meetings and communications including our tech all hands.

What We're Looking For

  • 3+ years of experience in management consulting, investment banking, private equity, or a similarly demanding analytical environment.

  • Demonstrated success in taking ambiguous, complex initiatives and driving them to completion, you're the person who makes hard things happen.

  • Strong analytical instincts. Comfortable with budgets, vendor contracts, and making a business case from scratch.

  • A self-starter who identifies what needs to be done without being told and takes ownership without needing a playbook.

  • Low ego and high ownership. You get things done through influence and relationships, not title, and you're energized by making others around you more effective.

  • Excited to transition into tech and genuinely curious about how engineering organizations work.

  • Clear, confident communicator who can synthesize complexity and present it simply to senior stakeholders.
