# Operations Lead

Clera

ABOUT THE ROLE
This is an end-to-end ownership role over a core operational domain, reporting directly to the COO at an AI-native, stablecoin-based clearing and banking platform built for global fintechs and financial institutions. You will design, automate, and scale the systems that make operations run hands-off, measuring success by volume growth with flat headcount rather than team size.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
• Own one operational domain end-to-end: customer operations, payment operations, or fincrime operations, running it like a product team from day one.
• Perform the manual work yourself in the first couple of months, sitting in the queue to identify exactly where processes break and defining the KPIs that prove the system works.
• Ship the first wave of automations within a few months, proving the operating model on a live cohort and driving measurable volume lift.
• Scale agents across your domain so that humans handle only the highest-risk decisions while the long tail runs hands-off.
• Spec agents and shape tooling directly alongside Engineering and Product, collaborating on real decisions rather than filing tickets.
• Draft, defend, and continuously improve escalation paths, SOPs, and operational metrics.
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR
• 3 or more years building products or processes at a bank, fintech, payments, or crypto company, or tier-1 consulting experience with regulated financial services exposure.
• Production automations or agents shipped and running in live environments today, not proofs of concept.
• Hands-on experience performing operational work such as queue management, case handling, or transaction processing to understand process pain points firsthand.
• Experience designing end-to-end operational domains including process design, SOP creation, KPI definition, and tooling selection.
• Strong background working directly with engineering and product teams to spec and build operational tooling and systems.
• Familiarity with compliance, risk, fincrime, payment operations, clearing, or settlement workflows is a strong plus.
• Experience with AI agents, LLMs, or intelligent automation systems is a plus.
• Automation-first mindset: your first instinct is to build a system, not to add headcount.
• High agency, ownership mentality, and comfort operating in ambiguity without an established playbook.
• Based in New York or willing to relocate.
COMPENSATION & BENEFITS
Base salary: $180,000 to $220,000 USD annually. Visa sponsorship is available.
LOCATION
On-site in New York, NY, USA.
