Chief of Staff, CEO

About Ema Ema is building the world’s leading Agentic AI platform to transform enterprise productivity. We enable organizations to delegate repetitive tasks to Ema, the Universal AI Employee, delivering 10x gains in workforce efficiency, across functions. Founded by former executives from Google, Coinbase, Flipkart, and Okta, our team includes engineers from premier tech companies and graduates of Stanford, MIT, UC Berkeley, CMU, and IITs. We are backed by industry leading investors including Accel, Naspers/Prosus, Section32, and angels like Sheryl Sandberg and Dustin Moskovitz. Headquartered in Silicon Valley and with offices in London, Bangalore and Vancouver, Ema is at the frontier of what Agentic AI can do in production — we ship real systems that run real business processes at scale. Role Overview As Chief of Staff to the CEO, you will be the strategic nerve center of the entire company — a true force-multiplier to Surojit Chatterjee (ex CPO Coinbase, VP Products at Google). Reporting directly to the CEO and based in Mountain View, CA (full co-location required), you will own the translation of the CEO's vision across Sales, Product, and the full organizational agenda — serving as connective tissue between the CEO and every critical function: EPD, GTM, Finance, HR, Legal, and the Board. This is a senior operating role for someone who has already done it — led strategy at scale, driven GTM at a high-growth technology company, and earned their stripes as an Engagement Manager or Associate Principal at a top-tier consulting firm (McKinsey, BCG, Bain) before stepping into industry. You are not here to learn the ropes; you are here to pull them. Ema is backed by top-tier investors (Accel, Section 32, and Prosus) and is building the Universal AI Employee for enterprises worldwide. This is a high-visibility, high-impact role at one of the most consequential AI companies in the world. Key Responsibilities CEO Leverage & Executive Operations Serve as Surojit's strat
