Chief of Staff

About Cleanview

Cleanview is a market intelligence platform that tracks data centers, renewable energy projects, and power plants across the United States. We process data from local permits, interconnection queues, EIA filings, FERC documents, SEC filings, and dozens of other public sources to help business development teams, analysts, and investors understand what's being built, where, and by whom.

Our research has been cited in The Washington Post, The New York Times, Reuters, Axios, Politico, and leading industry publications — and one recent investigation prompted a U.S. Senate inquiry. We're a profitable, bootstrapped company growing fast.

The role

We're hiring a Chief of Staff to help scale our team, product, and business. Our company has grown by 15x over the last year and become one of the most cited resources in our industry. We've gone from serving a small handful of customers to some of the largest companies in the world. We've done all this with a remarkably lean team.

Over the next few years, we want to scale up even more. That will likely require more than tripling the size of our team over the next year, growing revenue by another 5x, and building new systems to achieve all of this.

This role will be essential to achieving these big ambitions. We're looking for someone to partner with our CEO to build and manage the team; create new operational and management systems; scale what is working; and translate customer feedback into our product roadmap.

We see this as one of the most important and influential hires we will ever make as a company. In this role, you would shape the trajectory of our business more than just about anyone.

Key responsibilities

• Build the team. Work with the CEO to grow the team from 7 team members to about 25 over the next year, and well beyond that in the years after, across sales, marketing, software engineering and research. Ensure we hire the top 1% of talent.
• Manage the team. Set goals, give direct feedback, and deal with problems early. Support our team in doing the best work of their careers.
• Execute. Turn our priorities into a roadmap with owners and deadlines, and hold people to it. Coordinate between research, engineering and sales, and manage our outside legal and accounting partners.
• Stay close to customers. Talk to customers regularly and ensure their feedback makes its way into our product roadmap and key priorities.
• Scale what works. We've proven our business model, go-to-market strategy, and product work. Your job is to help scale these activities and functions up.

Required skills and experience

• 5+ years of experience, including managing people, ideally at a startup.
• A track record of being exceptional at something challenging, whether at work, in school or in competition.
• High standards. You're comfortable telling someone their work isn't good enough, and helping them fix it.
• Enough technical fluency to work through problems with software engineers and researchers.
• You're an AI early adopter. You've built tools with the latest models, and you know the difference between slop and work that's elevated by these systems.
• A fast learner who's insatiably curious.
• You know what great looks like. You've been a part of a world-class team or company and have worked with exceptionally talented people.

Nice to have

• You've been at a company while it grew from about 10 people to 50 or more.
• You've hired for several different functions.
• You live within driving distance of Boulder.

Compensation & benefits

Salary: $160,000–$200,000 per year

Benefits: Gold-tier health/dental insurance, unlimited PTO, 401k matching, and a parental leave policy that grows with tenure.

Hiring manager's note: Cleanview is a small company so I might not be able to get back to every candidate or email. But I will review all applications. I realize that's kind of a bummer, so I'm sorry in advance.
