Product CEO / Venture Studio Director
Job description
About the role
You are an entrepreneur first and accountable owner of a venture studio operating inside Human Agency. This role is about building and running your own venture from zero to one while simultaneously designing the governance model for how all ventures are evaluated, funded, and scaled across the studio. You will run the weekly studio syncs and act as the lead critique, owning accountability for outcomes and direction. You must be comfortable selling the vision to partners, customers, and investors because closing is part of the job. Success is defined by your ability to deploy AI and agents as core infrastructure, not as a feature, making them the foundation of every solution you ship.

You have zero interest in process for process's sake and prefer to build, ship, and iterate based on evidence.
You understand how to operate within a high trust, flat team structure where titles do not insulate anyone from feedback.
You embrace a builder-first mindset and hold yourself and others accountable for outcomes, not activity.

Practical notes
We are scaling rapidly and have a growing pipeline of opportunities that demand exceptional talent across disciplines. Our mission is to bring on individuals, from creative producers to technical experts to entrepreneurial leaders, who can help us realize this next chapter of growth. We are a company of doers. Leaders roll up their sleeves, teams work flat, and everyone contributes to what ships. Titles don't insulate us from feedback or basics. We invite critique, learn quickly, and keep raising the bar. The best ideas win here, no matter where they come from, because clients trust us to deliver the strongest outcomes every time. Our clients' missions, products, and bottom lines are sacred. We immerse ourselves in their world, becoming stewards of their goals and partners in solving big problems. Every product, strategy, or asset we create must be both beautiful and functional; practical, usable, and designed for real-world impact. Humans are our most valuable resource, and we only grow by hiring people who push us forward. Across strategy, engineering, design, data, and operations, we seek out teammates who raise the bar and make us better. Always hire up, never down. We partner with organizations of all sizes to explore, design, and implement AI strategies that are secure, scalable, and human-centered. We believe AI should amplify human potential, not replace it - and we build with that conviction in every engagement. From advisory and tooling to implementation and education, we meet clients where they are and help them integrate AI in ways that align with their mission and values. Our goal is to empower teams to work smarter, move faster, and unlock new possibilities through thoughtful, responsible innovation. And through it all, we lead with purpose, love, and adventure. We do meaningful work with people we care about, and we make the ride an adventure worth taking. Because at Human Agency, who we are and how we work are one and the same.
