Description

Job Title: Program / Utility Manager
Type: Full-time, Independent Contractor
Location: Remote, ideally based in Latin America or overlapping time zones
Work hours: U.S. business hours

About the Role
We've nailed the vision, built a prototype, and filed the patents-now we need a Program Manager who thrives on turning chaos into clarity. You'll work side-by-side with the founder to drive execution, organize priorities, close loops, and bring the MVP to life. This is a utility role for someone who thrives wearing multiple hats and owning outcomes.

Responsibilities

• Stand up and manage task/project tools (ClickUp, Jira, or equivalent)
• Maintain clean backlogs, organized sprints, and surfacing blockers early
• Build and polish collateral (decks, one-pagers, SOPs, docs)
• Manage light finance/admin tasks (pay bills, reconcile expenses, bookkeeping)
• Prep partner calls, maintain action logs, track follow-ups
• Capture meeting notes, organize assets, and enforce documentation hygiene
• Identify process gaps and implement lightweight systems (preferably AI-powered)
• Drive deliverables through QA, launch, and post-mortems
• Uphold our family-first, mission-driven culture

What We're Looking For

• 5+ years in operations, program, or project management
• Proven ability to execute across competing priorities
• Excellent communicator across async tools and Zoom
• Detail-oriented but pragmatic
• Tech-savvy and tool-agnostic (Excel, GDocs, PM platforms, AI tools)
• Comfortable with context switching and ambiguous startup environments
• Values-driven, ethical, and aligned with our mission to improve family life
• Bonus: experience in startup finance ops, HR compliance, or light bookkeeping
