WE’RE HIRING! If you love data and are looking for unlimited growth opportunities, we want to talk with you about joining Further.

Our purpose is to enable people to thrive so that businesses can thrive. We believe that the work you do should matter - it should be meaningful to you professionally and personally, and it should have a positive impact on both you and our clients. If this sounds exciting to you, let’s chat!
We are looking for an operational leader to act as the Chief of Staff for our Delivery organization. As we transition to a new capability-led structure, we need more than just administrative support, we need a decision-maker. In this role, you will serve as the right hand to the Head of Strategy & Delivery, helping run the daily rhythm of the business while driving our most critical internal initiatives. You will partner closely with our Capability Leads (who manage the teams) and Business Operations (who manage the systems & processes) to ensure we are staffing the right people on the right work, maintaining accurate data, and actually adopting the standards we build. You will sit in our Cleveland, OH office on a hybrid schedule. The team is in office on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays.
Senior Delivery Operations Manager
What experience should you have:
- Experience: 7+ years in professional services, consulting, or agency operations with a deep understanding of service business metrics (margins, utilization, leverage).
- Skillset: You are fluent in Salesforce/PSA tools and Excel, and possess a strong foundation in Change Management (e.g., ADKAR principles). You know how to build a communication plan, track adoption metrics, and coach teams through new operational behaviors. You can look at a resource forecast and immediately spot what's wrong.
- Mindset: You have high EQ and low ego. You can influence senior leaders who don't report to you, and you aren't afraid to have difficult conversations about data accuracy or staffing conflicts.
- Ambition: You view this role as a stepping stone to senior leadership, not an administrative dead-end.
What you’ll be doing in this role:
- Staffing & Resource Management: You are the human in the loop for our staffing process as we build a smarter machine. While Business Ops provides the data, you help make the final call on assignments. You will work with capability leads to balance client demand with employee career growth, negotiating with Project Managers when resources are tight.
- Operational Rhythm: You own the weekly cadence of the delivery business. This means running our forecast reviews, auditing utilization data, and ensuring our time-tracking hygiene is spotless so our Capability Leads don't have to chase timesheets.
- Strategic Initiatives: We are rolling out the Further Standard: a consistent set of delivery templates and tools. You will act as the Change Manager and Program Lead for this rollout. This means going beyond just project tracking; you will design the adoption strategy, manage stakeholder resistance, and fix friction points to ensure these standards become our daily reality.
Our total rewards program is designed for your protection, peace of mind, and overall well-being. In addition to our outstanding basics, we offer a net-zero cost medical option, company contributions to your HSA, fertility support, fully-paid parental leave, a monthly stipend for your lifestyle spending account, and much more.

Solution Architect
You are the architectural conscience of the platform and the technical translator at the front of every client engagement. Half your week is inside the product — reviewing ADRs, holding integration patterns coherent, and partnering with the data architect and senior dev to keep the architecture honest. The other half is in front of clients — taking real operational complexity and turning it into platform configurations the system can actually execute. You are not a slide architect. You write decisions down, defend them with reasons, and change them when the reasons change. This role only works if you genuinely enjoy both sides. The leverage is in the loop between them — what we learn in deployments shapes the platform, and what the platform enforces shapes how we deploy. You will sit in our headquarters in Dallas, TX on a hybrid schedule. The team is in office on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays.
What experience should you have:
- 10+ years of software engineering experience, with at least 4 explicitly accountable for system architecture — Principal Engineer, Staff Engineer, Solution Architect, or equivalent.
- Production experience with multi-tenant SaaS at meaningful scale. You have personally owned tenant isolation decisions and understand the difference between "we have a tenant_id column" and a defensible isolation model.
- Deep experience with event-driven or event-sourced systems in production. You have opinions about idempotency, schema evolution, and the cost of getting either wrong.
- Working fluency in the modern TypeScript/Node ecosystem (NestJS, Next.js, Drizzle, Zod, Postgres, Kafka/Redpanda, Temporal or comparable). You can read the codebase, make changes when it matters, and produce durable architecture artifacts — ADRs, RFCs, decision documents — that someone six months from now can act on.
- Direct experience leading rooms of senior client or executive stakeholders — consulting, enterprise customer engineering, field architecture, or technical pre-sales. You can translate "the engagement is slipping" into a technical control loop and back again.
Nice to have:
- Background in professional services, agency operations, or management consulting — you understand engagement economics from the inside.
- Observability experience (OpenTelemetry, distributed tracing) at a depth that lets you design for it, not just consume it.
- Architecture decisions on AI-native or LLM-integrated systems — model gateways, agent orchestration, prompt versioning, or evaluation pipelines.
- Experience in compliance-conscious environments (SOC 2, HIPAA, GDPR) where audit trails and data residency are first-class concerns.
- Public writing, conference talks, or open-source contributions that show how you think.
What you’ll be doing in this role:
- Own the architectural coherence of the platform, ADR backlog, architecture reviews, system shape diagrams, the canonical event envelope, the tenant isolation model. You hold the line on invariants and write down why.
- Define integration patterns for every external system, identity providers, CRMs, project tools, communication systems, AI providers. You decide how we connect, not just whether.
- Build and own client deployment patterns, repeatable playbooks from "first connector" to "first signal" to "first governed action." You author them, run the first few personally, and abstract them into reusable configurations as you go.
- Lead pre-deployment architecture sessions with client technical teams, translating their identity infrastructure, data model, permissions, and compliance posture into a deployment plan the build team can execute.
- Carry the technical narrative externally. You can sit across from a client CTO, walk them through the architecture, defend it under pressure, and adjust where the pressure is legitimate.
- Mentor the founding engineering team on architectural reasoning, not by lecturing, but by showing your work in ADRs, reviews, and the way you make trade-offs visible.
You should not apply if:
- You want to architect from a whiteboard and hand off to others. We write code, we read code, and we ship.
- Client conversations drain you. Half this job is in front of people who don't speak fluent engineering.
- You need consensus before deciding. We move with strong opinions, loosely held — emphasis on strong.
