Role and Responsibilities


As the Partner Operations Lead at Optimism, you will drive high-impact strategic initiatives that shape both our company trajectory and Go-to-Market roadmap. You’ll work across the organization to define key priorities, synthesize internal and external insights, and build the operational frameworks that enable us to scale with clarity and discipline. This is a cross-functional, high-ownership role suited for someone who thrives in ambiguity and is energized by solving hard problems.

What are the role responsibilities?


  • Be the “right hand person” to our chief growth officer in shaping and executing our GTM strategy
  • Own end-to-end delivery of hard, ambiguous strategic projects with rigor and independence – from problem definition to final recommendation
  • Develop a deep understanding of our peer and competitor positioning as well as the emerging crypto landscape
  • Partner with the Data team to define key metrics and targets, and further embed feedback loops between metrics and downstream actions
  • Help drive quarterly and annual planning efforts, collaborating closely with cross-functional leaders and the Exec team
  • Build strong relationships with key stakeholders and founders

What skills do you bring?


  • 8-10+ years of experience in a business strategy / operations role across consulting and high-growth tech companies
  • Strong business modeling skills (Excel / Google Sheets); SQL or Python a plus, but not required
  • Excellent communicator, both written (e.g., memos, decks) and verbal, with an executive presence
  • Strong project management—you’re organized, responsive, and can push multiple workstreams forward in parallel
  • Collaborative and low-ego, with a track record of influencing cross-functional partners and senior leadership
  • Web3 curiosity or experience—you’re either fluent in crypto or eager to get fluent fast

What will you like about us?


  • We take care of our employees. Competitive compensation, fully paid medical, dental, and vision, and a 4% 401K match—learn more about ourbenefits, culture, and all recruiting FAQ here.

Life at Optimism Foundation

Everybody and their mother working on blockchains loves the word “decentralization”. On a broad, world-changing scale, we can all agree that it’s important. Yet, when we zoom into the specifics of how to build this decentralized world, we find many diverse approaches. Whether it’s defi, identity, art, healthcare, or anything in between, a single dependency unites each dream for the future: scalability. We are building the critical infrastructure to address this need. Optimistic Ethereum is an extension to Ethereum that scales both its technology and philosophy. Not only do we enable orders of magnitude more performance, we’re also doubling down on Ethereum’s values as a public good, never to be captured by private commercial interests. Ethereum will enable the greatest change in human coordination since the birth of the internet, and Optimism is here to bring it to the masses.
