BizOps or Busy-ops?
Senior BizOps at Artie (San Francisco)
Startup wants a do‑it‑all boss back in the office — comments are on fire
TLDR: Artie is hiring a Senior BizOps in SF, in-person, with $120K–$210K pay and equity after a new funding round. The community is split between calling it a career rocketship with founder access and blasting the office rule, long-hour vibes, take-home case, and modest equity for a do‑it‑all role.
Artie, a startup that moves data in real time (think “copying your app’s info into a big spreadsheet instantly”), just raised Series A and is hiring a Senior BizOps in San Francisco, fully in-person, 5 days a week. Pay is $120K–$210K with 0.15–0.3% equity, plus meals, unlimited PTO, and visa support. The posting reads like a superhero call: own everything across product, sales, and operations, work with the founders, go fast. The internet? Immediately split.
The loudest chorus: remote diehards roasting the office rule. “Five days in SF?” cue memes about 2019 calling. Others side-eye the free lunch and dinner—“translation: you live here now.” The take‑home case study triggered cries of “free consulting,” while BizOps veterans rolled their eyes at phrases like “connective tissue” and “bias for action,” calling it “do-everything-without-resources”. Equity sparked a tug‑of‑war: some say 0.2% at Series A won’t buy you ramen, others argue this is a career rocketship if you can actually ship.
But there’s genuine hype too. Fans love the “work with the CEO/CTO” pitch and the chance to build systems from scratch. Curious folks asked if this is “Fivetran but faster,” and were told Artie uses CDC (change data capture) to make updates fly. The meme of the day?
